Ever fewer people appear to understand that design is a serious profession; and for our future welfare we need more companies to take that profession seriously.

That's why when someone achieves an empire and then something happens where it is lost or destroyed, they still have the vibration that they've achieved, and the empire will come back again - you see it all the time - because it is the vibrational status that the Universe is responding to, not the financial status.
