Celebrating 20 Years!

My financial planner Fred Akers and I first met when I was presenting a workshop about sales training, back in the day, and he was selling office equipment. He thought I came across pretty well, and put the course on his credit card that day! Now he's one of the top financial planners in the US-- my CFP! Here we are celebrating his 20 years with the company...



Only a very select few of his "Number One Clients" were invited to a gourmet lunch at Prime in Atlanta. Congratulations, Fred, and thanks for all your great moola-making strategies over the years!

KITTIES IN THE LABYRINTH AT THE CABIN PATH



These Zen kitties know just how to get into the meditative space on the Labyrinth Walk alongside the lake shore a the Cabin Path. Can't wait for our Nature, Magic & Manifestation retreat day next weekend!

Nature, Magic & Manifestation at The Cabin Path

I'm really excited about the upcoming "Nature, Magic & Manifestation" FUNday at The Cabin Path, Sunday 5/4-- I totally resonate to this magical 52 acres just outside the Atlanta perimeter, and so do the fairies! As you can see, here's a fairy house. For more info contact me or Sarah Crutchfield at www.thecabinpath.com




Also enjoyed speaking to the Women's Affordable Housing Network at the Ansley Golf Club recently. Here I'm pictured with Shelly Patton, of Progressive Redevelopment Inc., and Ann Cone, director of Prudential Financial.

What is Politics, Really?

A little boy goes to his dad and asks, 'What is Politics?'

Dad says, 'Well son, let me try to explain it this way:
I am the head of the family, so call me The President.
Your mother is the administrator of the money, so we call her the Government.
We are here to take care of your needs, so we will call you the People.
The nanny, we will consider her the Working Class.
And your baby brother, we will call him the Future.
Now think about that and see if it makes sense.'

So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad has said.
Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him.
He finds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper.

So the little boy goes to his parents' room and finds his mother asleep.
Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room.

Finding the door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed.

The next morning, the little boy says to his father, 'Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now.

'The father says, 'Good, son, tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about.'

The little boy replies, 'The President is screwing the Working Class while the Government is sound asleep. The People are being ignored and the Future is in deep doo-doo.'

Sounds like this kid is a candidate for chief of the Federal Reserve!
