New personal finance book out -

Money, Master The Game      by Tony Robbins


I bought Personal Power tapes by Mr. Robbins back in the day when they were advertised on infomercials.  He's a positive, good-guy with good ideas.  I'm not a quadrillionaire but I'm much better off for having purchased his tapes.  I bought quite a bit of his other stuff too. 

His take on the money game will be interesting. 

To paraphrase some guy - "There is a crime behind all fortunes." 

Robert Greene's books seem more in tune with what it takes to get rich, but Mr. Robbins is a good guy. 

Not too sure what to think.

No woman, no crime.  No crime, no money.  No money, no woman.      -  wow

I bought and will read this book. 

Anyway, you know, Just Some Talk.

Recent Successful Personal Acquisitions

I don't dumpster-dive regularly but I do occasionally scan my nearby dumpster for good stuff I can possibly use or sell.  Recently while taking out some trash, I look over the container contents and I see a desktop computer.  No accessories, just the CPU box.  Along with a couple of other items, I fish it out & take them to my apartment for later inspection.  I'm thinking the computer probably doesn't work but I could at least have fun taking it apart & checking out it's guts.


The next day I connect a monitor, mouse, keyboard, and speakers to the computer and "bam", it works.  The PC had no documents or information on it, but Windows Vista Business operating system was on the Acer desktop.  There seems to be nothing wrong with it.  I have another toy to play with.


Long story short, I bought a used Sony flat-panel monitor that supposedly was not working for $3.21.  I had a hunch.  Bought a new power cord & monitor cord from Walmart and it works fine.  Slightly scratched up on the edges but other than that I think I scored an item that would of set me back for at least $200.00 new (if it was a new Sony monitor it may of started at $300.00).


For all of my good luck, the Philadelphia Eagles lost to the Seattle Seahawks last night.  DAMN IT!!


I guess two out of three isn't bad.


Eagles play Dallas the up-coming Sunday for the division title.


Good Luck Eagles!
Come on Chip, time to bring out some of the big guns.


Hope you guys had a good Thanksgiving.


May God bless us all.

A Secret

Happiness.

A lot of the time I'm just not happy.  What I discovered is that you have to make yourself happy some of the time. 

Find a quiet, private spot and just smile.  Put on a grin from ear to ear and hold it for a little bit. 

I read somewhere that when you smile, your brain releases endorphins and other chemicals that make you feel good.  I've done it a few times just recently and it does help me.  Putting on a "happy face" is something I rarely do in public and when I do do it in private, it is kind of a release.  Celebrities and "the beautiful people" smile a lot in front of the cameras.  They know something that we ordinary people don't know. 

Now you know.

I try not to smile much when I'm in public because...it's just not a good idea to broadcast your attempt at some happiness.  Better done in seclusion or with an understanding friend. 

Smile.  You'll be all the better for it. 

Don't smile too much.  The universe may throw a wrench in your gears.

After my happiness session, I started having multiple problems with my car.  The problems weren't serious but they were enough to cool my jets and make me remember that I'm a worrying type being and I can't be too happy.  I think God wants me to be happy some of the time just not all the time.

Anyway, do some smiling during this holiday season and use those brain chemicals that are your birthright.

Peace.

Standards & Ramen

Soooooo,


Trying to maintain a style of living may be too much to handle.  Being Mr. or Mrs. perfect just doesn't work in the real world.  The guys who are billionaires seem to have the perfect life with "all that money" but, something must be missing in their lives.  I think it applies to everyone.  No matter how satisfied you get, contentment and satisfaction do not last.  You can taste it but you can't keep it permanently. 


No matter where you are in your life, you will have to put in some effort & hustle toward some goal or endeavor even if you are not really really struggling. 


Some movement must take place.


Some thought must occur.


Life.


"Realize that life is an end in itself.  Functioning is all there is".  -Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.


Yes and no. 


God has an idea.  God has a plan. 


Moving on:


Not all ramen noodles are made the same. 
In my opinion, Nissin Ramen (chicken) is much more flavorful and satisfying than Maruchan Ramen. 


Maruchan - Powdered, cooked chicken
Nissin - Powdered chicken and "rendered" chicken fat


What ever makes them different, I will get Nissin from now on if I can.  I don't think Wal-Mart, which is my main store of choice, sells Nissin so, ShopRite it is for noodles at least.

Food Revisited

Got them on the blog this time yo. 

Change of subject:  What Is Justice?  Is there a deeper justice than what is on the surface?

The movie Bonfire Of The Vanities makes my point.  The guy did what he had to do to save himself. 

My mom is going through some issues where she is living.  I try to help but it just goes on and on.  Her difficulties are starting to affect my own personal "harmony".  I'll be okay but I hope she overcomes her apparent problems.

Blip: I was talking to a newly minted real lawyer about the show How To Get Away With Murder.  She saw the first episode, as did I, and said that the show was nothing like real courtroom life.  She flat out implied that the show had no semblance of truth to it what so ever. 

"There is some truth in fiction and some fiction in truth."  - anonymous

She might have been covering up for lawyers, being that she is one, to the idea that they do that kind of stuff.  Lawyers can be devilish noting the way this new woman lawyer carried herself (confidence and an air of "don't fuck with me or you will regret it) and how she spoke (conservative & with-holding with her words).  I think some of this show does have a little flavor of reality to it or she wouldn't have been so adamant to denounce its validity.

Anyway - Peace.  Talk at ya.

I Learned A Lot Working As A Gas Station Attendant

Women want men with money and power.  When a girl says I love you for you,...bullshit. 


Trading words in conversation doesn't happen often but trading or rather giving of resources rarely if never happens.


It's a cold world.  Interpret this in multiple ways and see the statement for what it is saying.


Life is an every-day thing.  The fight goes on and on.  Find some time to rest & rejuvenate even if it's only for five minutes.  Five minutes used well can keep you going.


The dynamic has to be experienced first hand.  Not in books.  Can't get it from friends.  Just sayin', just some talk.

story

Jake Mendelson was an average nobody. He was going through his life with no aspirations or grand plans other than to see himself through to the next day.  He was 19 years old, worked at a car wash, and still lived with his parents.  Jake's grade school and high school years were ordinary.  He decided not to go to college or to join the military.  He had only a few friends.  He never had a girlfriend.  He paid his expenses with the money he made at his car wash job.  He saved his surplus cash in a coffee can underneath his bed.  He had no plans for the money.  He just stashed it "for a rainy day".  Jake wouldn't call himself a religious fanatic but he believed in a higher power.  He would go to church every Sunday to pay homage to the powers that be who or what ever they were.  Jake was your basic good guy.  He lived a reserved life based on today's standards.  He didn't have much of anything but he was honorable an noble.  Jake didn't want much of anything.  He was happy to be able to party some of the time.  When he did party, he danced and drank.  He had good clean fun.


The powers that be looked into Jake's heart and saw an innocence that was usually gone by the time people reached Jake's age.  Jake's soul was clean and uncorrupted.  The powers that be thought it was a fluke so they tested Jake several times to see if he was...true.  He passed test after test.  One day they gave him an unpassable test.  They were going to corrupt Jake.  They thought it was time he "joined everybody else".  Jake failed a morality test.  He was a lost soul.


By some miracle, Jake overcame.  Some way, over time, Jake re-cleansed his spirit.  Jake maintained his faith and, with time, passed the un-passable test.  The powers that be were astonished!!  Surprise.  After the un-passable test, Jake was never quite the same but he was honorable and noble nonetheless.

The End

The Carl Fox Way

Probably most of the passengers of flight MH-17 were innocents.  War, money, wealth, and profit at the expense of lives is not good.  Granted, the fact is "some" will suffer and/or die, but, it is wrong when 90% or more suffer & die.  With our technology, most should be able to live good lives.


I am at the bottom.  I have been lower than my present bottom.  Those experiences remind me that if I EVER rise to some serious financial heights, it will be, for me; fuck everybody, my time.


In the movie Wall Street, Gordon Gekko was a bad guy.  If you read Wall Street the book, you would of gotten some background on the G.G. character & found out that he started relatively with nothing at a young age & clawed his way to the top, in the trenches, mostly alone.  He earned what he had be it legally or illegally.

My point is the Carl Fox character is ethically correct, but, the Gordon Gekko character is realistically correct.


Kind of a paradox.


No one gets through life without touching on some negatives.  You will feel pain, suffering, stress, pressure, confusion, etc., some time in your existential journey.

There was a Star Trek The Next Generation episode where a lost astronaut was taken care of by higher beings.  He was provided with all of his needs based on a novel set in a casino.  He was well taken care of, but, basically he was a prisoner.

Learning Every Day

I had a screw in the rear passenger side tire of my car with a slow air leak.  I put on my spare tire & planned to get it fixed in a couple of days.  I was familiar with the idea of "plugging a tire" but I had never done it myself before.  I went to my local library, got on-line to Youtube, and saw four different videos on how to plug a tire.  In about forty-five minutes, I learned how to plug a tire.  I spent seven dollars for supplies from an auto-parts store.



I successfully plugged my tire!  Not too big of a deal but I'm proud of myself.



My car people charge $15.95 plus tax to plug a tire.



BOOM  -  I saved a little cash by doing it myself.  Plus I have a new skill under my belt.


You should learn stuff most every day.  Just sayin'

Personal Finance Vent!!!

MARY, MOTHER OF JESUS -----------------


I was in the process of saving money by slashing the price of a couple of my bills.  I switched my land-line plan to a no-frills basic plan.  I cut $20.00 off my regular bill (cha - ching!).  I dropped the insurance coverage on my 2nd clunker because it is not running now (broken, maybe a bad alternator).  I saved about $35.00 to $40.00 on my auto insurance bill.


I'm thinking I'll have money available for a few splurges and my savings plan.


Wrong.


The girl who moved into my apartment, the one I briefly mentioned in my last post, IS KILLING MY CASH FLOW!!!  I normally don't run my air-conditioner, ever, because I can't afford it.  It is running (guest - you know - right?) & burning a hole in my bank account.  She sleeps with the TV on most of the night with the air running.  I don't mind it but it annoys my shallow, shallow pockets all to hell.  I let her pawn my gold-diamond ring so she could pay for her cell phone bill.  FUCK!  I hope I can get that ring back.  It has high sentimental value to me.  


I know I'm getting burned, but, she is a family - friend and I love her (Platonic, mostly) but....


I once saw a bumper-sticker that said "Gas, Grass, Or Ass, nobody rides for free."  I'm just sayin'.  


It has been about a week and I'm surprised that she is coping & surviving in my low-living lifestyle.  Did I mention that the day after she got here she lost her job!!??  I may be in for trouble.  


Damn, Damn, Damn!


So, how about those Philadelphia Eagles?  Mandatory mini-camp is over.  I think they are working on some stuff in secret.  This may be the season the Eagles win the bowl!  Go Eagles!



Anyway, over the weekend, while I'm visiting my Dad on Sunday, a guy & his step sister back their Nissan Altima into my stationary Nissan Sentra.  They dented the passenger-side bumper & cracked the blinker.  They could of driven off, & I would not have known about the damage until I left my father's house for home, but they came to me after the accident.  I was unlucky and lucky.  Ethical Question:  Did they do the right thing or did they do a stupid thing?    


Two steps forward , three steps back.  A losing formula.  


It is kind of nice having company but the price is too high for me.

Did I mention that my rent is going up?  I misplaced my regular blogging notebook.  There is a screw in my rear - passenger - side tire.  I have slept on the floor of my apartment for five days straight.  Two of my land-line phones have died.  I have one cigarette, no beer, no alcohol, and less than half a tank of gas.


I am getting a fifty dollar credit on my rent next month so I'm getting a little break.  God knows I'll need it.

I don't like my stuff being taken from me.  I will willingly give you some of my stuff if it will help you and not hurt me.



If I give you my heart & you don't want it, fine, give it back to me.  Don't throw it on the ground, stomp on it to a pulp, then set it on fire!!!


If I give you my mind & you don't want it, fine, say thanks but no thanks.  Indifference & unresponsiveness is a hell that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.


If I give you my soul & you don't want it, fine.  I'm sure the devil will give me at least twenty bucks for it.

I got some gold jewelry from my regular thrift store this past week-end.  I paid one dollar for a pair of ear-rings and two pins.  They probably are not real gold, but, if I cash them in and I'm able to get a "great" return on my investment, should I share some of the proceeds with the thrift store?

Trinket Trash Treasure!

True story:

I was walking around my apartment complex collecting extra unwanted McDonalds coupons from building mail trash boxes.  I had planned on going to four buildings.  I got what I could possibly use and was on my way home when I saw a flattened gold ear-ring in the street.  I passed by it thinking it was just junk but I thought, what the hell, it might be worth something.

I took it to a gold buying store today and the guy gave me FIFTEEN DOLLARS CASH for it! 

Finding $15.00 in the street is a good thing for the finder.  It was bent & mangled up a little so I think the owner really didn't want it or didn't realize the true value of the ring.

Anyway, I just spent $3.00 on used library books.  I will spend the rest on inexpensive food and cigarettes.  I know I should be saving some but my low income warrants a "spend it now and to hell with the future" mentality. 

Small windfalls are nice and highly appreciated.  Thank you God!!!

An Open Letter

To a blogger who will remain nameless:


I followed you on the internet for over eight years.  I commented on your blogs.  We exchanged emails a little.  We were "open" to a degree with each other.




We had something (so I thought).



Out of the blue, you get married to a guy that you didn't mention was in your life.  You marry a real prince no less.  How was that suppose to make me feel?



I got upset and said some negative things that, maybe, I should not have said.  I was hurt.  You "broke my heart" then silenced me out of your internet life by leaving the blogosphere.


I found your new blog recently and made a few attempts to re-connect.


SILENCE.


Do you hate me because I am, maybe, not at your level financially?  Do you dislike me because I gave you a taste of my dark side?  Do you not talk to me because I listened to you (familiarity breeds contempt)?


I accept that you are taken off the market.  I respect your choices.


You are beautiful, attractive, intelligent, smart, and sexy.  I loved you.  I will always love you no matter what.  I will not apologize for "going dark" on you and getting angry though.  No physical violence will come from me except in defense.  I will not stalk you.


May you prosper, get out of debt, and be rich some day, but, may you have a strand of hair on your head that goes grey that you can't dye & can't get rid of.

Love You

When Coffee Fails

Black coffee with no sugar usually is a good, lasting pick-me-up.


Adding a little sugar, for taste, may diminish the caffeine's ability to wake you up.


A product called Up Your Gas works well for a time.


A tolerance may be built up for what-ever you use to get you going.  More and more coffee may be needed over time.

I had the idea that I would try cross-dressing.  I'm a man who would attempt to pass as a woman by wearing female clothing in public.  I want to see how the other half lives.  I am pushing the envelope through experimentation.  I'm not gay.  If anything I'm bi because I know I like ladies.  Upon reflection back to the ninth grade when my first serious crush said "you're weird", I realize that I'm a little underdeveloped.  I think I'm slightly retarded.  My father said way back that I have low self esteem.  He was being kind.  Anyway, I told Marilyn, one of the ladies at the church thrift store that I go to, about my idea & she said that when I'm ready they would be able to help outfit me.  I could probably get a dress, a handbag, and a pair of shoes but I'd be on my own when I get a wig, make-up, stockings, & whatever else I would need.  If Ru Paul can do it....  I would be doing it now but I spent fifty bucks signing up on the website What's Your Price dot com where guys pay women for dates.  I offered $37.00 to this one woman and she counter offered $50.00.  She, imo, is clearly not fifty dollar material so I countered with $35.00 to which the site responded by saying I could not go lower so I countered with $39.00.  She hasn't responded yet.  You can go as low as $5.00 to start so I thought I was generous.  We will see what happens.  It's mostly SSDD with me so I'll report back later on my two projects.  Thanks for reading.  Talk at ya.

P.S.  May God bless the passengers & crew of flight MH-370.  Hopefully they are okay.

Home

What does it mean to be home?  Where do you call home?  Is your home safe?  Are the words house and home synonymous?  Is home where your hat is?

The saying goes, "you can run but you can't hide".  I don't think the previous statement is totally true especially if you think about it.  Home should be a place that you can hide from everything and everyone depending on your definition of home.

A friend of mine said that one of her "hot - buttons" was the search for truth.  I think that when truth hits you, you should be able to go home, recover, then go another round with truth later on.  Mrs. Truth can be one tough bitch!

When you're a child, parents give the illusion of home.  When you become an adult, you must make a home of your own if possible.

Rest at home, rest in peace, find rest the best that you can, almost any way possible.  Riding to school today, I realized that I find "home" when I'm smoking.  They say that smoking is bad for you, but, when I'm home it's all good.

Just some talk.

P.S.  I'm out of home-sticks so I'm a little homeless :)

P.P.S.  
The truth you seek to fathom lies so deep
in the abyss of the eternal law,
it is cut off from every creature's sight.

And tell the mortal world when you return
what I told you, so that no man presume
to try to reach a goal as high as this.

Yes, I had a few beers.  I feel like sharing so...


I am not a destroyer of companies.  I am a liberator of them. The point is, ladies and gentlemen, that greed, for lack of a better word is good.  Greed is right.  Greed works.  Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit.  Greed in all of its forms, greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge, has marked the upward surge in mankind, and greed, you mark my words, will not only save Teldar Paper, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the U.S.A.  Thank you very much.

Feel good to function.  Function to feel good.  

If I had the money, I would for sure order a pizza right now!!!  It definitely would make the beer a little better!  

In the words of a former college friend, "I am no more good"!

A LIFE HIGHLIGHT FOR ME - among the top ten

Dear Ms Paula Patton, I love you.  I know you're married but hey, I can dream & fantasize!  This pic was taken from the movie 2 Guns starring Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg (sp.).  

The picture is not that great but it's good enough.  Tasteful and sexy imo.  Thank you Ms Patton, thank you Jesus!!!!  If you ever do Playboy magazine, I'll be the first one in line for my copy!

greatly appreciative,
