What for? They worked so hard to let him go to schoolHe had known the Levine family only casually but he felt like weepingWhy should it be? Other sorrows possessed him, minor ones, major ones, in a suite of random undisciplined wavesHe remembered when his family was very poor and his mother had lost a pair of gloves which she treasuredIt's a hard businessHe had drawn apart from the platoon, from the patrol aheadEven Croft, what will he get out of it all? You're born and then you dieThe knowledge somehow made him feel superiorHe shook his head once more Minetta was sitting beside him"What's the matter with you?" he asked sharply, his sympathy guarded for Goldstein had been Ridges's partner Goldstein sighed, "I was just thinking He stared down the corridor they had hewn out of the jungleIt extended in a reasonably straight line for almost a hundred yards before bending around a tree, and all along it the men in the platoon were sprawled on the ground or sitting on their packsBehind him he could hear the steady chopping and macing of the machetesThe sound depressed him, and he shifted his position, feeling the dampness of the earth against his buttocks"That's all you can ever do in the Army, sit and think," Minetta said"Sometimes it's not so goodI'm the type of man it's better for me when I don't think so much "Yeah, the same for me Minetta realized Goldstein had forgotten how poorly he and Roth had worked, and it made Minetta like himHe ain't one of these other guys holdin' a grudgeThat made Minetta think of his argument with Crof | | Sunday, January 2nd, 2011 | | 11:11 am |

Miss Eastlake is back!" He booked for the doorI dropped his folder on the library table and followed himI had made the connection - but only because I'd spent the last few months cultivating the art of seeingCultivating it strenuouslyHe'd gone the length of the dogtrot and was halfway up the staircaseI was limping as fast as I could and he was still pulling awayHe waited for me, not very patiently "Who told him the debris field was there?" "Eastlake? I assume he stumbled on it while pursuing his diving hobby "I don't think so - he hadn't been in that bathing suit for a long timeDiving and snorkeling may have been his hobby in the early twenties, but I 670 think that around 1925, eating dinner became his chief diversionSo who told him?" Annmarie came out of a door near the end of the hallThere was a goofy, unbelieving grin on her face that made her look half her forty years "Is she-" "She is," came Elizabeth's cracked but unmistakable voice"Come in here, Wireman, and let me see your face while I still know it ix I lingered in the hall with Annmarie, not sure what to do, looking at the knickknacks and the big old Frederic Remington at the far end - Indians on poniesThen Wireman called for meHis voice was impatient and rough with tearsThe shades had all been drawn Air conditioning whispered through a vent somewhere above usThere was a table next to her bed with a lamp on itThe shade was green glass The bed was the hospital kind, and cranked up so she could almost sitThe lamp put her in a soft 671 spotlight, with her hair loose on the shoulders of a pink dressing go | | Thursday, December 30th, 2010 | | 11:11 am |
@@@@@So you boys go to school and get your @@@@@So you boys go to school and get your college degreesI'll teach you how to stay out of the trap The pieces of the puzzle were appearingMy highly educated dad had a great education and a great careerBut school never told him how to handle money or his fearsIt became clear that I could learn different and important things from two fathers "So you've been talking about the fear of not having moneyHow does the desire of money affect our thinking?" Mike asked "How did you feel when I tempted you with a pay raise? Did you notice your desires rising?" We nodded our heads "By not giving in to your emotions, you were able to delay your reactions and thinkThat is most importantWe will always have emotions of fear and greedFrom here on in, it is most important for you to use those emotions to your advantage and for the long term, and not simply let your emotions run you by controlling your thinkingMost people use fear and greed against themselvesThat's the start of ignoranceMost people live their lives chasing paychecks, pay raises and job security because of the emotions of desire and fear, not really questioning where those emotion-driven thoughts are leading themIt's just like the picture of a donkey, dragging a cart, with its owner dangling a carrot just in front of the donkey's noseThe donkey's owner may be going where he wants to go, but the donkey is chasing an illusionTomorrow there will only be another carrot for the donkey "You mean the moment I began to picture a new baseball glove, candy and toys, that's like a carrot to a donkey?" Mike askedAnd as you get older, your toys get more expensiveA new car, a boat and a big house to impress your friends," said rich dad with a smile"Fear pushes you out the door, and desire calls to youEnticing you toward the rocks "So what's the answer," Mike ask | | Wednesday, December 29th, 2010 | | 11:11 am |

Mutual funds are popular because they @@@@@ Mutual funds are popular because they represent safetyAverage mutual fund buyers are too busy working to pay taxes and mortgages, save for their children's college and pay off credit cards They do not have time to study to learn how to invest, so they rely on the expertise of the manager of a mutual fundAlso, because the mutual fund includes many different types of investments, they feel their money is safer because ii is "diversified This group of educated middle class subscribes to the "diversify" dogma put out by mutual fund brokers and financial planners The real tragedy is that the lack of early financial education is what creates the risk faced by average middle class peopleThe reason they have to play it safe is because their financial positions are tenuous at best Their balance sheets are not balancedThey are loaded with liabilities, with no real assets that generate incomeTypically, their only source of income is their paycheckTheir livelihood becomes entirely dependent on their employer So when genuine "deals of a lifetime" come along, those same people cannot take advantage of the opportunityThey must play it safe, simply because they are working so hard, are taxed to the max, and are loaded with debt As I said at the start of this section, the most important rule is to know the difference between an asset and a liability Once you understand the difference, concentrate your efforts on only buying income-generating assets That's the best way to get started on a path to becoming rich Keep doing that, and your asset column will growFocus on keeping liabilities and expenses downThis will make more money available to continue pouring into the asset columnSoon, the asset base will be so deep that you can afford to look at more speculative investments Investments that may have returns of 100 percent to infinityInvestments that for $5,000 are soon turned into $1 million or moreInvestments that the middle class calls "too risky The investment is not risky It's the lack of simple financial intelligence, beginning with financial literacy, that causes the individual to be "too risky," If you do what the masses do, you get the following pict | | Thursday, December 23rd, 2010 | | 11:11 am |

What the hell had he meant by that? On an impulse Hearn opened the General's liquor closet, and examined the opened bottlesAlmost every night Cummings could be counted on to drink an inch or two of Scotch, and with a curious niggardliness he would mark the prada logo level of the bottle with a pencil before he put it awayHearn had noticed this with amusement, found it an interesting little quirk in all the contradictions of the General But today the liquor level on his bottle of Scotch was at least two and a half inches below the last pencil markCummings had seen that this morning, had rebuked him for drinking it"Are you junior officers getting your liquor supplies?"
