Less is sometimes more
Sunday, September 5th, 2010Your neighbor may be a millionaire – without you even knowing it. Many millionaires, and even billionaires, live a far more frugal life than most people imagine. By paying more attention and less money, they are often able to keep, invest, and appreciate more of their money (than other people – who may even “earn” or start out with more than they do). (more…)

Fractions are not your friend
Saturday, January 23rd, 2010There have been quite a few exceptionally tragic “natural” disasters lately – mostly affecting some of the poorest areas of the world. The probability of “ongoing” occurrences of dramatic destruction and resulting “reduction” of the affected local human population in the near future is something to consider – as is the possibility that human influence on what happens on this planet may at the same time be at least fraction more and less than many people might suspect.

Abundance often begins with appreciating the value that everything has – and then finding the highest and best use for it. Defining anything as a “weed” is a form of waste. (more…)
Trash or Treasure?
Monday, August 17th, 2009“One man’s trash is often another man’s treasure.”
Waste is what is left over, seldom used, and usually discarded (rather than retained and re-purposed). What is wasted is lost.

Energy can not be created or destroyed – but it can and often does change form. (more…)
A Question of Values?
Monday, August 10th, 2009Appreciation means to increase in value.
Value is often relative – mainly to situation, circumstance, and perception.
How much something (or someone) is worth is very subjective. How much compared to what? (more…)
