GM☕️☕️🌅🙏✝️ The Lord said: “Woe to you Pharisees! You pay tithes of mint and of rue and of every garden herb, but you pay no attention to judgment and to love for God. These you should have done, without overlooking the others. Woe to you Pharisees! You love the seat of honor in synagogues and greetings in marketplaces. Woe to you! You are like unseen graves over which people unknowingly walk.” Then one of the scholars of the law said to him in reply, “Teacher, by saying this you are insulting us too.” And he said, “Woe also to you scholars of the law! You impose on people burdens hard to carry, but you yourselves do not lift one finger to touch them.”✌️💜🕊️

GM☕️☕️🌅🙏✝️ After Jesus had spoken, a Pharisee invited him to dine at his home. He entered and reclined at table to eat. The Pharisee was amazed to see that he did not observe the prescribed washing before the meal. The Lord said to him, "Oh you Pharisees! Although you cleanse the outside of the cup and the dish, inside you are filled with plunder and evil. You fools! Did not the maker of the outside also make the inside? But as to what is within, give alms, and behold, everything will be clean for you."✌️💜🕊️

Hetty Green……who?? She would have been a bitcoiner! Maxims for Life and Investing Here is a list of ideas I took away from this episode and my research. “I buy when things are low and nobody wants them. I keep them until they go up and people are crazy to get them.” Position beats prediction. Always keep cash reserves. “If you can manage your brain, you can manage your fortune.” “Before deciding on an investment, seek out every kind of information about it.” The skills to get rich and the skills to stay rich are not the same. “In business generally, don’t close a bargain until you have reflected on it overnight.” Only invest when downside risk is low and upside is high. Self-reliance is the ultimate competitive advantage. Everyone looks smart when they’re in a good position, and even the smartest person looks like a fool in a bad one. Panics are temporary. Value is permanent. Have a detective’s eye. Uncover what others miss or ignore. “I go my own way, take no partners, risk nobody else’s fortune.” “Never owe anyone anything. Not even a kindness.” Mix extreme patience with extreme decisiveness. Never bet against America. “Watch your pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves.” Move in silence. Keep your positions private. Never take advantage of people, even when you could. “When you try to do too much, you never get anywhere. Focus.” Stay connected to reality. Frugality keeps you grounded. “When it comes to spending your life, there have to be some things neglected. If you try to do too much, you can never get anywhere.” “My work is my amusement.” “Property is a trust to be enlarged for future generations.” Live by your own rules, not society’s expectations. Be fair in all things. Your conscience will haunt you otherwise. “Don’t kick a man when he’s down.” “Seek elegance rather than luxury, refinement rather than fashion.” “When I see a good thing going cheap because nobody wants it, I buy a lot of it and tuck it away.” From her favorite poem: “To live content with small means; To seek elegance rather than luxury, And refinement rather than fashion; To be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich.” Things Not to Do Hetty gave her children a list of things not to do. Don’t cheat in any of your business dealings, for sooner or later, your conscience will trouble you and you’ll worry yourself into an early grave. Don’t fail to be fair in all things business and otherwise. Don’t kick a man when he’s down. Don’t envy your neighbors. Don’t overdress, whether you have the means or not; this causes envy. Don’t fail to go to church, for the church needs you and you need the church. Don’t forget that riches dishonorably gained must be left behind someday, and when you depart, you will find the gates of heaven bolted against you. Don’t forget to be charitable.

Anyone disagree? “Take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live.” Jim Rohn Having a functional body that allows us to live our lives with a high degree of capacity is crucial. Everything we do is heightened when we do it with capable bodies. Likewise, everything we do is hindered if our physical body is degrading. Make it a point to give your health the care and attention it deserves. Every single aspect of your life will benefit as a result.

GM☕️☕️🌅🙏✝️ While still more people gathered in the crowd, Jesus said to them, "This generation is an evil generation; it seeks a sign, but no sign will be given it, except the sign of Jonah. Just as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so will the Son of Man be to this generation. At the judgment the queen of the south will rise with the men of this generation and she will condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and there is something greater than Solomon here. At the judgment the men of Nineveh will arise with this generation and condemn it, because at the preaching of Jonah they repented, and there is something greater than Jonah here."✌️💜🕊️
