A departure from the Norm

[QUOTE=grimm1111;40542]I'm having a little fun at your expense. But if you seriously think about it Bull Run, you can't affect any of these "macro" trends. I have delusions of grandeur sometimes, but hell I'm just one man working in this pie stand. The best strategy is to focus your efforts on what you can affect - YOU. Now sure, understanding the big picture helps make sense of the practical stuff, I don't disagree with that. But there's a fine line that's easy to cross.

It's easy to go thru the world with goggles. It's easy to see the world thru a lens of expectation, and that lens actually distorts reality, and blinds you to possibilities you might have experienced otherwise. I'm glad to hear you haven't given up on all American women. I realize there's a lot of shit to sift through to get to the good ones. We all need to screen. That's a hallmark trait of a man of value.[/QUOTE]


That's kind of my point man. I can't change the MACRO trends and I'm not attempting to do so. Instead, I'm trying to understand them so I can adjust those things I can control to give me the best advantage possible.

Indeed.
