Strategiesare like recipes: choose the right ingredients, mix them in the correctproportions, and you will always produce the same predictable results: inthis case financial success. The success strategies for managing money andbuilding wealth are called Money Strategies.

And yet, here we are, whispering about the steepness of the way, the soreness of the self-denial, the heaviness of the cross, whining and puling, giving to those outside the utterly grotesque impression that religion is a gloomy kind of thing, a dim, monastic twilight where we sit and shiver miserably, out of the sunshine that God made for us, and meant us to enjoy -- that it is all a doing that nobody would naturally choose, and refraining from what everyone would naturally take: a species of insurance money grudgingly doled out lest some worse thing come upon us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've been Skinny; it's fucking boring. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61513]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've been Skinny; it's fucking boring.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm very excited.
