The most expensive land

Recently, there was an article that told how the wealthiest places on earth are not the oil fields of the Middle East nor the diamond mines of South Africa. The wealthiest places are the cemeteries. Buried in the ground are businesses that were never formed, songs that were never sung, books that were never written, potential that was never realized, and dreams that never came to pass.

Do you have regrets?

A university did a study with members of the senior community and asked what they regretted most. The majority said more risks and missed opportunities.
I have missed a lot of opportunities and risks in my life. I regret not going to Rome while in Italy, having a closer walk with Jesus, treating my friends and family better, retiring from the Marines, being a better dad and husband, not starting my business sooner when the passion burned in my heart thirty years ago, wanting to step out of the box when I was "too comfortable" and the list goes on.
What will be your biggest regrets?

At work

"The work place is one of the most common areas where "over the cubicle" conversations happen. Avoid floating stories or anecdotes about your new business to see how people will react. Don't give verbal presentations about the business standing around the water cooler or at the lunch table. Avoid drawing your compensation plan out on a napkin for co-workers at break time. Remember that every prospect needs to see a full presentation from start to finish so that they can have all the information and make an informed decision." -MJ Durkin

The Economy

It's amazing how many folks out there are fooled and totally in the dark. They are mad at the rich, hoping their presidential candidate can help them by squeezing taxes from the "evil empire" of the wealthy. They do not realize that they are in the same spot as they were 8 years ago. Our national debt has went up to 19 trillion dollars and hardly a drop it that has went to the American economy. Our government spends our hard earned money, foolishly. Hillary Clinton preaches against the wealthy but she is one of them. Yes, Trump is too. Amazing, the Democratic party has more millionaires than the Republican party. Yet, we watch night after night as the Democratic party slams the people that have went out and made their money and take care of their families.
In the book "How an Economy Grows and why it Crashes", Peter Schiff explains the problems the government causes by trying to run the countries business. By now we should realize that the U.S. Postal service, Amtrak and Social Security are going in the red due to the government. That's just to name a few. Like I said, people are amazingly fooled because they believe what they hear from "promise makers" instead of thinking for themselves and doing the research. I guess that's why the majority of the American population are called "sheeple".

If your vocabulary includes the word "quit", chances are you have things that go unfinished.
