Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to trust your team. It's a lesson I've had to relearn quite a few times.
If you are moving, even fire will not hurt you. If you are standing still near the fire, even though you are not in the fire, the heat will eventually get to you.
Socialists tend to want to pay people more money to do less work, and capitalists tend to want to provide better products at better prices.
There may be less of a chance of losing all the money you put into a mutual fund than there is of losing all the money you put into lottery tickets, but you're never going to win big in a mutual fund.
Action first, mistakes second, lessons third.
In my experience, many people confuse being cowardly with being nice.
Tax season always means a deluge of tax advice. Unfortunately, most of it is futile and lightweight.
'Socialize' means we turn more of our personal powers over to Big Brother, not free enterprise.
Every time the Fed implements 'quantitative easing,' a.k.a. printing more money, two things go up: taxes and inflation. When taxes and inflation go up, more jobs are lost.
At my lowest point, I was nearly $700,000 in debt.
At the height of the Enron mania, the company's market value was $65 billion. Once the dust cleared, the final value was $0.
I know how to make money. That's what I know. Not too many people know that, that well.
As one of my teachers, Buckminster Fuller, says, we were given a right foot and a left foot, not a right foot and a wrong foot. The point is that, there's always two points of view out there, and we need to increase our ability to allow another point of view. Then we have a better chance for peace.
I don't know why I am internally a violent person. I don't have the normal nerve endings most people do, which was very good for me as a pilot in Viet Nam. When most people are afraid, I'm actually quite excited about things. The more dangerous something is, the happier I am.
