Reader Mailbag: Time

http://feedproxy.google.com

The more of life I experience, the more I realize that the most valuable thing a person has in their life is time. The cost of a book is trivial compared to the value of the time spent reading it.

Children and Excess

http://feedproxy.google.com

My two children are extremely blessed in many ways. Perhaps their greatest blessing is that they’ve surrounded by a family that loves them dearly and truly cares about their future in a deep, fundamental way – and I’m not merely talking about myself. I’m talking about their grandparents, their aunts and uncles, even some of their cousins.

http://feedproxy.google.com

I won't get into all the dogmatic arguments that surround the massive income disparity in the US, we've discussed them in many other pieces.  (frankly I think wealth disparity - rewarding generations for nothing more than having the right genes - is a much larger problem the income disparity)  We must however understand "it is what it is" and Wall Street has entire thesis (plural?) built around it [Sep 7, 2009: Citigroup - America; A Modern Day Plutonomy

Example of An Investment at Fire Sale Price

http://feedproxy.google.com

Earnings Per Share $29.02, Book value (liquidation value) per share $135.83 and the company's shares were trading around $23.50-$25 per share. I'm drooling....
