Three pieces of sound financial advice.....

[poltr1]

A few years ago, when I was still listening to WVXU, I heard a couple of local financial experts on their weekly show. They offered three steps to wealth and financial success.

1) If you're single, don't get married.
2) If you're married, don't have children.
3) If you have children, don't get divorced.

If this is the rule, then I've struck out.

Ya know, I tuned out Suze Orman once she started talking about how getting rich required that you focus on getting the money. Not: how happy that money could make the people that you care about. You had to focus on getting the money more than focussing on the people that you love.

Maybe it's my Catholic roots, but if I had to sell my soul that much in order to be rich, I decided that I was going to turn my back on that game, as much as economically possible.
