When anyone asks you to have faith, get a tight hold on your wallet.I worked for a pharmacist I would say he was in his mid 30’s that I watched for about a month go down a list of people that got prescribed say 120 percs monthly (not exactly just painting the picture) call them up and ask how many they had left because “the head pharmacist might have miscounted it initally” a few people actually came up to the pharmacy and he would try to talk them out of taking them all together regardless of the circumstances and would incorporate religion to these people like he was preying on the weak. He told me one time “Pretend that everything you have ever been taught about religion is wrong and then pretend everything I am fixing to tell you is 100% fact”. I am waiting for the day I see him operating a church of some sorts cause he wants to be the next David Koresh/Jim Jones I can say for a fact lol.
learn the nuances of the stock market. don't panic if it drops. it always rebounds.Around here locally, people were sinking several thousands of dollars into "oil points". Something to do w/ saltwater fracking or some such. Some guys I know were actually making fun of me for not sinking at least 15-20 grand into it.
Last I heard, they were trying to sue the guy.

not getting religious in the least. but faith is the exact opposite of truth. especially when it comes to money.When anyone asks you to have faith, get a tight hold on your wallet.
Find a good Financial advisor. Most people cannot traverse the stock market.learn the nuances of the stock market. don't panic if it drops. it always rebounds.
Sometimes I don't know exactly what I want to believe. Way too many ideas that we accepted as fact have been debunked as new facts take their place.not getting religious in the least. but faith is the exact opposite of truth. especially when it comes to money.
good advice. and be a long term thinker. since the 80's I've invested heavily in defense contractors and municipalities like electricity, water, gas, etc. can't get by without them. my biggest surprise lately was graphene. it took a spike when it proved to be a major component in future desalinization plants, but has recently become a major component in golf ball construction. I never would have guessed that one, but i'll take it.Find a good Financial advisor. Most people cannot traverse the stock market.

I worked in morgues removing corneas from cadavers for like 3 years. I seen a guy that flatlined 4 or 5 times in half a day then became a DNR per family request. I pull him out of the freezer open the bag and see the biggest smile on this mans face.

LOVE of money is the root of all evil is the proper quote. In other words GREED. Though of course that is not true; lust and a few others contribute quite a bit.They say money is the root of all evil or at least I have faith in money attracting evil lol

Look at cholesterol levels; 25 years ago 220 was a good number. Then 5 years later that was bad and 200 was good. Then 180. THEN it became about GOOD c and BAD c. Just give it another five years and that will change again.Sometimes I don't know exactly what I want to believe.
