I’m listening to my dad’s funeral service. He was killed riding his motorcycle 10 years ago. Witnesses said he was going 40 miles per hour and a 19-year-old waitress driving an SUV didn’t yield on a left turn. He ended up face down on the pavement. She was charged with criminally negligent homicide.
I know all that because I emailed the police department to get the report.

I just read The Millionaire Fastlane by MJ DeMarco. He talks about two ways to build wealth: The slow lane, and the fast lane. The slow lane is filled with all the people who save and invest....
My family bought our first computer in the early 90s. I just played games on it because the internet didn’t really exist yet. It was around this time Marc Andreessen was coding the first Web browser which became Netscape Navigator.
