Not My Fault https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22May20_Post.mp3 Once I worked with a guy. He was a very zealous born again Christian. Always trying to convert me. Once, he came into work and mentioned that he’d burned his toast. Not once, not twice, but three times. His response was that God didn’t want him […]
Escape Insidious Cons
Big Business https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22May04_Post.mp3 The path of any business is simple. And very repeatable. First, any business does ANYTHING they can to make a profit. So the money they get on the front end is more than the money they get on the back end. The next step is to scale up the […]
The Instant Riches Trap
Short Term Love https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22May03_Post.mp3 Getting a financial windfall is the dream of nearly everybody. At least, superficially.

Ancient Leadership Scams
Ruthless https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22May01_Post.mp3 Once I took a speech class. The one I wanted, public speaking, was full. These are usually pretty fun. The one I got was “group dynamics.” Less fun. Probably because of the teacher. I think a more decent professor would teach a better class. But this […]
Supermarket Party Skills
How’s That Avocado? https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Apr27_Post.mp3 Imagine a typical day for a typical person during a typical week. Let’s pick a Tuesday. Not quite halfway through the week. But far enough away from yesterday that the common Monday blues are starting to fade. Anyhow, let’s say you’re at the store. Picking up […]
Houdini Death Blows
Stuck Underwater https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Apr11_Post.mp4 I’ve always been a fan of Harry Houdini, the famous escape artist.

See Beyond Now
No Cave People https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Apr03_Post.mp4 One of the hallmarks of civilization is not being a slave to your instincts. This is pretty difficult today.

Always Better Now
Inside Your Brain https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Apr02_Post.mp4 No matter where you go, there you are. This is a quote from Buckaroo Banzai. Maybe not from him, but whoever wrote the book. Or maybe not from him, something he heard, as it’s a pretty common idea. We are always somewhere. Wherever we are, there […]
Money Creativity
Creative Income https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Mar24_Post.mp4 I had a friend once. He made his living at the track. Betting on horses. But not like most people do. Well, most people bet on hunches. They see the track as a hobby, something to do for fun. Then there are the individuals who make […]
Unconscious Money Love
Know Your Intentions https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/2022/22Mar22_Post.mp4 Jung famously said that if you do not make the unconscious conscious, it will rule your life and you will call it fate.
