MYTHICAL GRANDFATHER SPEAKS WISELY

Powerful Suggestion

What’s the single piece of advice you wish someone had given you a year — or five, or ten —  years ago?


“Fasten your seat-belts. It’s going to be an exceptionally bumpy ride. Actually, you might also want to wear body armor and a helmet.

“I think there are guys with high-powered rifles out there getting ready to shoot. Oh … one more thing. You might want to consider moving to someplace warm and cheap. Just saying.”

Thanks oh mythical Grandfather for your wise counsel. I’ll get right on it!
