Under construction…will be back.

Blockquote test.

Can you feel it?

Yeah.

Weird Al strikes again…

Do you ever remember what you wanted to be when you were a little kid? Most people do, although many people have given up on those dreams for “second best” or worse.

But what if you could choose to do what you wanted to do since you were little? Would you pursue it?

Love the new look Google! Now I can not only catch up with what my friends are saying, but also with what is happening around the world as well.

We all need money. Money is the blood of any economy, and if it ever stops circulating then your nation is registered as dead.

But dreams, goals, visions (whatever you call them) are the motivation behind the mind that creates the nation, business, etc. and without it we would all become nothing more than depressed robots stuck in a building working only to pay the bills and live another day.

But if you had to choose between the money or your dream, what would you choose? And, more importantly, is it possible to have both?

Possibly, but that involves risk, and to fail at striving so hard is more than enough to make most people shrink back in life.

About a year ago when I was studying for my investment license, I came across this phrase:

“The greater the risk, the greater the reward.”

I think I am now at a cross roads in life. I can:

1. Do something I kind of enjoy and make lots of money or
2. Risk doing something that may not be profitable at first, but will satisfy this burning desire within.

I must admit I am wavering at the two, but then I am reminded that some things are done not for the money.

I sure hope not.

Makes you want to go out and cut up all of those credit cards.

I have been looking for a way recently to combine two passions of mine–money and writing.

Although writing a book would easily solve this problem (that is, if it became a New York best seller) I think becoming a grant writer would be something I would seriously enjoy.

I have already googled for some classes, and being the frugal person that I am I found some classes for under $500. Sweet!

I will still see if I can locate other places that are less expensive (and closer to home), although if I can find an online course somewhere, I’ll probably be sold to that.
