A Great Quote

Spirit of America's Michele Redmond shared a great quote with me today from the New York Times. It was spoken by Ben Stein (Bueller? Bueller?), and it goes like this:

"We are more than our investments. We are more than the year-to-year or day-to-day changes in our net worth. We are what we do for charity. We are how we treat our family and friends. We are how we treat our dogs and cats. We are what we do for our community and our nation. If you had $100 million a year ago and now you have a lot less, you are still the same person. You are not a balance sheet, at least not one denominated in money."

Well said, Ben. Food for thought...
