What has life taught you recently? Every day is an uphill battle for me. I don’t know if this is true for everyone, but I need a spark to start the ignition. To win the day, you must PLAY: That was yesterday. When I was a kid I loved 80s style games. The simple graphics […]

Then I read from at least four different styles of books. I have coffee. I think. I list. I write. Throw stuff out. Then finally it’s around 6am and I begin. Here’s the types of articles… PAIN: I think of a pain point in my life. Losing a lot of money. Getting a divorce. Being […]

A broker called up in the Fall of 1998 and suggested I buy a stock. I remember it. Intel. INTC. I had all my money in an account with him. I said, “ok”. A few minutes later he called me back and said, “Sell it.” I said “ok”. I made $1000. I couldn’t believe it! […]

I had an idea. Tell me if you like it. I loved the idea of living in hotels. What sort of person could live in a hotel? Did you have to be rich? Sometimes. At the time, I lived in The Chelsea Hotel in NYC. If you ever saw the movie, “Sid Killed Nancy”, you […]
