Knowing how to make money is a good start toward knowing how to stop spending it for nothing. It also gives the prudent person great leverage in stopping graft and corruption!

Since the days of the Founders, American has had exactly ONE extremely wealthy president whose wealth was not largely the result of inheritance. This president was an orphan at age nine, raised by relatives and attended college on a scholarship, yet made so much money from the mining business that he retired by the time he was forty and continued earning millions from his investments for the next fifty years. His name was Herbert Hoover.

I have a fear that Trump could be a combination of Nixon meets Hoover, and I am not talking about the Watergate stuff.

Stopping graft???

Trump is the king of graft!

That’s why he had an orgasm over the Kelo decision.
