Can you confidently say “I want to make more dollars” or has capitalism become a taboo word for you?.

Lets face it there are only two things you can do with a paper dollar (1) use it for a fire (2) use it to wipe your rear-end. .
HOWEVER, WHAT DOES THAT DOLLAR REPRESENT?……RICH & MEANINGFUL” life experiences. Like the one in this photo, my wife Angelike’s first trip to Lambeau Field on Thanksgiving Day 2015.   About 35 million people watch on Thanksgiving Day. How many have been to Lambeau to be “in it”?

So maybe your “Rich & Meaningful” life experience is completely different. Maybe it’s:
Playing golf at Pebble Beach ($525) .
Taking the Fam to Disney World ($6,360 for a family of 4).
Summiting Mount Everest ($45,000).

Most memories have a price tag💲Not all, I know….Watching your child take their first step is priceless. A great sunset is priceless. Sharing a laugh with a friend is priceless…..But if we’re being realistic and honest, for everything else, there’s Mastercard. .

I ask you, where would you like to go? What would you like to experience? How will you get there?.
