Wealth
Almost everyone on the planet is five times wealthier than their ancestors only 50 years ago. This astonishing phenomenon has also improved health, education, and longevity. The average life span increased from about 40 years to more than 80 and the average world income from less than $3 to more than $33 per person per day (and to $140 per day in some countries). The cause; an explosive growth in ideas and productivity. Of all work in 1850, 80% no longer exists. Think of electricity, railways, automobiles, aircraft, satellites, radio, telephones, cell (mobile) phones, TV, computers, the Internet and nuclear power. Today, each farmer in the USA feeds 300 people whereas 200 years ago 4 out of 5 Americans worked in agriculture. In 1900 farm workers were still 40% of the work force; while in 2016 they were less than 2%. Bill Gates and Paul Allen started the Microsoft Corporation in 1975 thereby creating three billionaires and about 12,000 millionaires among Microsoft employees. $1000 worth of Microsoft (MSFT) shares in 1986 were worth $2,800,000 in 2025. In 2016, shares of Nvidia (NVDA) were $1.32 adjusted for stock splits. In 2025 one share could be sold for $170. A $1000 investment in 2016 would have returned about $129,000 in 2025. Okay, so how do you start GETTING RICH? It is very simple. Few of us have the talent or tenacity to start a new business, but now it is easy to buy publicly traded shares of businesses that grow steadily and create wealth in the process. You might as well buy a small share and watch it grow. Get rich slowly by investing a regular amount of your income in a diverse range of companies and re-investing all interest, dividends and capital gains and holding for many years. You will first need to choose an on-line stock broker and set up an account. They all operate much like banks as they are legally required to know their clients and must report to government tax collectors on any income to your account.
An Almost Love || ROMANCE ||
Quote for this book: When a woman is used to getting hurt, she won't know what to do when someone starts to truly appreciate her. So, she pushes him away. -Unknown Tzarina escaped from the man who destroyed her, never expecting to be found by the man who would change her life. She has struggled. She has fought. She has hurt. But now, perhaps it is finally time to find peace and happiness. Christian never planned on rescuing a stranger, yet the moment he finds Tzarina alone on the streets, walking away is no longer an option. His heart simply will not allow him to abandon someone in need. And as this stranger slowly learns to trust him, the walls built around her heart begin to crumble. But fate has one final cruelty waiting for them. And some secrets do not just break hearts or ruin lives; they demand the ultimate sacrifice. Sometimes, loving someone means letting them go. An Almost Love contains themes of past abuse, psychological trauma, and emotional violence. If any of this feels too heavy or triggering, I ask that you proceed with caution or not at all. This story was once titled The Anecdote of the Abandoned Girl and A Woman Who Struggled.
--Bridges--
One of the favourite lessons reading books has taught me is that you're never alone, not alteast in thoughts and words. There are others who think like you, feel like you and react like you. It's like that sometimes, our unspoken thoughts are the bridges that connect us, even though we might be miles apart. And so, I've written them down in the hope that there are many out there in this world who would be willing to walk these bridges leading to me-the real, raw and unhidden self I am- my heart and mind and soul. And I really want to walk over to your side and feel what you are like. You are the one to decide whether you want to build 'em or not... ----------------- Cover by me!
