SAME with munny.

Always Keep some in Reserve.

NOW FOR A PROFOUND MUNNY QUOTE
WHICH IS LIFE CHANGING.

Buckminster Fuller -

The definition of Wealth:

"The # of days, weeks, months you can go without working."

DIRECTIONS:

TAPE a blank page on your inside closet door. And start tracking those days.

Tracking your wealth
Is step one to create the habit of saving.

Bucky was schooled by his mother on an island.

So he was not Stunted by
Our education system
This is all great - and valuable - wisdom, Glenn... Thank you for sharing!

Many may know that Buckminster Fuller helped to popularize the geodesic dome...

A few may even know that the type of carbon, which is harder than diamond, called "buckminsterfullerene" was named after him... (Also known as "buckyballs"...)

However, many may not know Buckminster Fuller invented the Dymaxion car - an early prototype vehicle, designed to not only drive, but also to fly (via vertical take-off)...



I love Fuller's definition of wealth that Glenn shared...

"The # of days, weeks, months you can go without working."

How many days, weeks, months, or years can you survive without working?

I plan to never retire (health permitting) - I'm having too much fun. But, I could retire right now if I wanted to... Not everything I've done has worked (far from it), but enough has worked that I've done well in some areas...

I believe Buckminster Fuller struggled in the early part of his life, but was well-off when he died...

Best wishes,

Dien
