Trump Accounts: Are They a Scam?

When I first heard about the Trump accounts, my first questions were: Is this a trick? Is this a scam? Is this thing designed to steal people’s money and put it into TrumpCoin? And apparently, I wasn’t alone. According to a survey by BuildCommonWealth.org, since Trump accounts became available to the public this summer, only 5% of eligible parents in that survey had opened one. The top concern Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Kristy Shen  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The more stuff people owned, the unhappier and more stressed they tended to be. Conversely, the less stuff people owned and the more they spent on experiences like travel or learning new skills, the happier and more content they were.”
― Kristy Shen, Quit Like a Millionaire: No Gimmicks, Luck, or Trust Fund Required

“According to business and economics professor Paul Harvey, “a great source of frustration for people with a strong sense of entitlement is unmet expectations.”1 If you believe that you’re special, and all you have to do is find your singular passion and turn it into a perfect job, that’s a recipe for disaster. The reality is that the world owes you nothing. You only become “special” by developing skills that are in demand, which takes focus, grit, and long-term work.”
― Kristy Shen, Quit Like a Millionaire: No Gimmicks, Luck, or Trust Fund Required

“One of the biggest lies we´ve been sold is that following our passion is the key . Statistically, following your passion will lead to unemployment or underemployment”
