RE: Mind Punk'd

they don't realize that it is possible to live in the moment and simultaneously invest in the future.

That is true with most people who I have encountered who live completely in the NOW.

Intersting take on this, comparing it to food! It's kind of what the poverty mindset does to people too... a future of wealth in out of reach, and so every week, the entire pay check must be spent for instant gratification.

Yes - and it will always remain out of reach, because of the belief it is. People these days don't seem to be able to find a middle ground, it is either on or off.

It's quite sad actually, but it's true. The mindset is what needs to be changed first! I can't stop learning, I love it too much.

We're working (perhaps a little late in life) on passive income and so far so good... I still have to work, but I'm learning and changing my strategies as I see fit.

There is no problem with working, but some people will never take that step to add additional streams of income and as a result, will find themselves having to work themselves to death.

We've been on that path for sure. Taking advantage of a 20 acre property, renting camp sites right now... it's amazing how much we make off only three sites!!!

ps: have a good vacation!
