I was in a cab this past Saturday and was lucky enough to hear
a great story of courage, fortitude and preservance having to do
with the recent developments in Egypt.
My cab driver was on vacation to visit his Mother and bring her
her for a visit with her grandchildren. They just made it out of Egypt
as things were significantly heating up against President Mubarak -
open riots in the street, looting, destruction of National Treasures
including mummies, the Tutankanen relics, human chains and
other extreme measures. Needless to say, they are so happy
that they both were able to get out and his mother is contemplating
whether she will return even though she may lose all her possessions.
The cab driver lamented all those things can be replaced but my
mother is priceless.
THE FIRST RULE OF SMART MONEY MANAGEMENT IS:
FAMILY IS YOUR GREATEST ASSET.
People are priceless and your family is your greatest asset. You can
(and should) earn, save, invest and even hoard you money but your
family requires the greatest investment and also can pay the greatest
rewards!!!!
God help the people of Egypt. I pray for an end to this civil unrest
soon and safety for President Mubarak and all his people.
