Growing up in a large family, with very little income, usually doesn’t create a kid who is spoiled by having all the finer things in life. In fact, sometimes it can mean that a child lives without having some of the physical essentials of living – food, water and shelter. Growing up in poverty certainly creates a distinct outlook on life. An adult who lived that way as a child doesn’t take having those essentials for granted. He will work to provide them for himself (unless that adult simply decides “I can’t provide for myself, therefore I won’t really try.”) But that point is not the focus today. Today it’s the opposite - the kid who is indulged with everything he could possibly want. And there are several negative sides to that. Self-centeredness, difficulty accepting they must work, instant self-gratification issues, dissatisfaction with what they have, and lack of empathy for those with less, are some real possibilities.

Read moreHere in the 21st century, we live our lives based on contracts written in an obscure language known as legalese. We may have agreed with a friend, relative, or colleague to enter into a transaction that seems totally clear and straightforward, but due to the litigious nature of our culture, we are compelled to get a written contract. What was a simple understanding between two people of goodwill now involves each of them retaining a highpried attorney to put their agreement into legalese which neither can understand. While I recognize that contracts may be a necessary evil in the world in which we live, we need to understand their limitations and shortcomings., A contract is only as good as the word and honor of the parties involved. I am very pleased to have been in a multitude of businesses for four decades and have never sued anyone nor been sued. Furthermore, I am proud that there’s no one I have done business with in the past that I couldn’t do business with again.
