If you are a business owner.. -- What is your biggest frustration with your Accountant ?If you are a business owner.. -- What is your biggest frustration with your Accountant ?
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: Imagine you were born in 1900. On your 14th birthday, World War I starts, and ends on your 18th birthday. 22 million people perish in that war. Later in the year, a Spanish Flu epidemic hits the planet and runs until your 20th birthday. 50 million people die from it in those two years. Yes, 50 million.... On your 29th birthday, the Great Depression begins. Unemployment hits 25%, the World GDP drops 27%. That runs until you are 33. The country nearly collapses along with the world economy. When you turn 39, World War II starts. You aren’t even over the hill yet. And don’t try to catch your breath. On your 41st birthday, the United States is fully pulled into WWII. Between your 39th and 45th birthday, 75 million people perish in the war. At 50, the Korean War starts. 5 million perish. At 55 the Vietnam War begins and doesn’t end for 20 years. 4 million people perish in that conflict. On your 62nd birthday you have the Cuban Missile Crisis, a tipping point in the Cold War. Life on our planet, as we know it, should have ended. Great leaders prevented that from happening. When you turn 75, the Vietnam War finally ends. Think of everyone on the planet born in 1900. How do you survive all of that? Now...When you were a kid in 1985 and didn’t think your 85 year old grandparent understood how hard school was. And how mean that kid in your class was. Yet they survived through everything listed above. Perspective is an amazing art, refined as time goes on, and enlightening like you wouldn’t believe. Let’s try and keep things in perspective.

19 THINGS THAT COVID-19 CLARIFIES FOR ME. - The United States is no longer the world leader. - China won World War III without firing a missile and no one noticed it.... - Prevention saves more lives than acting at the last moment. - Healthcare workers are worth more than a CEO with a severance package. - Oil is worthless in a society without consumption. - Death does not distinguish race, color or social status. - Social media brings us together, but it's also a way to create panic. - We now know how animals feel in zoos. - We are beginning to appreciate the great gesture of confidence of shaking hands. - The planet regenerates quickly without humans. - We are not ready for a pandemic. - We need to invest more in health rather than investing in bankrupt banks. - Vatican money stays in the Vatican. - Alcohol (on hands) saves lives - A consumer product can quickly go from prohibited to essential (eg cannabis). - It is better to buy a house with a courtyard than an apartment - Our elders need us. - At the end of this pandemic the world will change. - Digital is not real life, human contact is necessary!
Does this mask make my head look fat? ...as everyone does their part during COVID-19 pandemic.
