Thanks for sharing this with us. Unconditional love is truly hard to find. I'll be picking up Jessie, my Golden Doodle on May 19th and hope she has this same love for me. https://t.co/EJZBjw6Vem

Yes for Entrepreneurs there are some rules! But for “disruptive innovation” some of these “golden rules” of business must be broken. Therefore, when you “break these golden rules,” make sure you have a justifiable, supportable reason for breaking them. https://t.co/VfwK0TxRHc

You’ve done that job all your life and you think you’re pretty good at it. But, it’s not there anymore and not expected to come back. Therefore, it’s time for you to find something you truly love and figure out a way to make money doing it! https://t.co/hQaNajIfre

All Americans lost last night in this unfortunate performance by our current and possibly new president. Unfortunately, it will continue in the next debate. Isn’t it time to stop this finger pointing and solve the massive problems faced by all of us? https://t.co/Pi3pRAP9G9

James Carville famous for Clinton’s campaign slogan “It’s the Economy, Stupid” may have answers for our COVID-19 problems. But Our US, State, & local politicians don’t get it. We aren’t looking for hand-outs, “Just Get Our Jobs Back, Stupid!” https://t.co/K3tFsbDBsz

Buffett’s success with stocks are outstanding. He also has stayed away from most technology cloud based companies. But now he’s in for $570 million. So, this should remove any doubt for the rest of us that technology & Innovation will continue to soar. https://t.co/e3FC7NOFbq

[Ron G. Cheek @rongcheek]

General Motors started in 1908 and Tesla sold its first cars in 1985. But Tesla now has a greater value than GM. So, the merits of technology and innovation should be abundantly clear. Gee, even Warren Buffett is getting in the technology wagon. Be safe. https://t.co/bhSnaSUTdO

The COVID-19 pandemic has been especially difficult in our Tourism Industuries, their supporting services and on the Oil & Gas Industires. But those industries will continue decline as our Tourism recovery is 12-24 months away. Therefore change Must occur https://t.co/qkKawsRw8i

As an a Academic, I feel guilty reading anything “fiction”. Being in Louisiana, the center of COVID-19, I needed a guilty pleasure. This book, like the Jack Reacher series hit ALL my buttons!

Need to just “Get Away”, just for a hours from the COVID-19 virus? This book works!

In Louisiana, especially in the Greater New Orleans, COVID-19 has closed the “Big Easy”, not only for Visitors, but everyone in our community. Here are the latest figures. https://t.co/RMU6m83C7t

As a professor in a state university, a major portion of my retirement is in my 403b. My instructions to my friend and financial advisor is clear “don’t look at my portfolio until June 2020”.

With $128 billion in cash, watch Buffett go on a buying spree! https://t.co/XvCmHH1y25

Four years ago you left HS & started college. You’re now graduating with $30k in student loans & can expect to make $35k. With limited opportunities is it your fault or the College curriculum at your school?

Shouldn’t your college also be accountable? https://t.co/2nsCTDactF

[Ron G. Cheek @rongcheek]

Statistics aren’t necessarily good or bad, they’re just the Facts! Look at the Facts and Plan your own personal life. Don’t be swayed by what others expect you to do, rather look for gaps in the Facts that provide opportunities for You. Get started now! https://t.co/OcLxYGEn6r

[Ron G. Cheek @rongcheek]

It’s College Spring time, graduation time is near and unfortunately the future for these soon to be graduates is anything but clear. Would it be crazy to take Jeff Bezo’s approach and become a “bartender”? Why not bet on your future rather than just a job https://t.co/YdoMfZKAZp

The latest edition of the Economist says “left to itself, the coronavirus doubles itself every 5-6 days”. They also express fears hat Governments are ill prepared for the rapid spread of this virus. Too late to shut down borders, the cat is out of the bag https://t.co/1OWamdrwBz

Words can’t begin to show my appreciation for all the nurses that have come through my life. Their caring and compassion is immeasurable. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of them. ❤️💕 https://t.co/qGB8K0Q7bg

[Ron G. Cheek @rongcheek]

Yep, it’s definitely not a race to the finish. The only glue that holds it together is grandkids and the revenge they allow you to get on your kids! Definitely gives marriage an entirely new reason to continue! 🤣💕🍷🍷🍷 https://t.co/hFv2IL1qYg
