Newsflash: If you're in marketing, growth is the name of the game.
'Fuck you money' explained in the movie The Gambler.
Jim Bennett: I've been up two and a half million dollars.
Frank: What you got on you?
Jim Bennett : Nothing.
Frank: What you put away?

Frank: You get up two and a half million dollars, any asshole in the world knows what to do: you get a house with a 25-year roof, an indestructible Jap-economy shitbox, you put the rest into the system at three to five percent to pay your taxes and that's your base, get me?

So... the biggest learnings:
@LLBiggers So what I'm taking away from this is "children are ruining the planet." 😆
In all seriousness, as a dad of 3 (7, 4 & 6 mos), I can relate. While I appreciated the plastic-free tips you used to share, I couldn't really incorporate them into my life. Convenience keeps me sane.🤪
Anyone know who this is?

"Optimism is a strategy for making a better future.
Because unless you believe that the future can be better, it's unlikely you will step up and take responsibility for making it so. If you assume that there's no hope, you guarantee that there will be no hope"
