Money is important
but people are much more important. When we’re infirm or incapacitated, it’s
our loved ones we’ll turn to for help. Yes you can buy a dog but you can’t
buy the wag of its tail, as the saying goes.
So the message
today is that you should never chase money at the expense of your loved ones.
If you do, you’ll regret it in time I’m sure.
1.
It’s
good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it’s good, too, to
check up once in a while and make sure that you haven’t lost the things that
money can’t buy. ~George Lorimer
2.
You
can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your
goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that
people can’t take their eyes off you. ~Maya Angelou
3.
Buy
when everyone else is selling and hold until everyone else is buying. That’s
not just a catchy slogan. It’s the very essence of successful investing. ~J. Paul Getty
4.
If
money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real
security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge,
experience, and ability. ~Henry Ford
5.
How
many millionaires do you know who have become wealthy by investing in savings
accounts? I rest my case. ~Robert G. Allen
6.
The
real measure of your wealth is how much you’d be worth if you lost all your
money. ~Author Unknown
7.
The
individual investor should act consistently as an investor and not as a
speculator. ~Benjamin Graham
8.
Every
time you borrow money, you’re robbing your future self. ~Nathan W. Morris
9.
Never
spend your money before you have it. ~Thomas Jefferson
10. It’s not how much money you make, but how much
money you keep, how hard it works for you, and how many generations you keep it
for. ~Robert Kiyosaki
11. Not everything that can be counted counts and not
everything that counts can be counted. ~Albert Einstein
12. A real entrepreneur is somebody who has no safety
net underneath them. ~Henry Kravis
13. Don’t take no for an answer. If you’re happy to sit
at your desk and not take any risk, you’ll be sitting at your desk for the next
20 years. ~David Rubenstein
14. If you took our top fifteen decisions out, we’d
have a pretty average record. It wasn’t hyperactivity, but a hell of a lot of
patience. You stuck to your principles and when opportunities came along, you
pounced on them with vigour. ~Charlie Munger
15. When buying shares, ask yourself, would you buy the whole company? ~Rene Rivkin
