The Miley Cyrus of Finance

My oldest reader!!! 🥹🥹 I hope I’m still on blogs My oldest reader!!! 🥹🥹

I hope I’m still on blogs and learning and sharing and engaging if I get blessed enough to live that long..

What a gift!
The Happy Cent A smile on the face of a penny Car The Happy Cent

A smile on the face of a penny
Carried where it is easy to find
Is my inspiration to remember
To keep all my blessings in mind.

The trials we encounter are many
It is often quite easy to frown
But a touch or a glimpse of my penny
Helps me focus on the good that abounds.

There’s no magic found in my penny
Nor does it prevent or protect
But the joy brought to mind when I see it
Has a greater, long lasting effect

It reminds me of others less fortunate
Making my situation less bleak
I recall the man who complained of no shoes
Until he met a man with no feet.

I’m reminded that life is not perfect
And one of the numerous reasons to cry
But a frown we endeavor to change to a grin
Helps uncomfortable moments go by.

My penny reminds me of the thoughtfulness
Of friends who have given, and when
It repeatedly tells me that love is around
And will triumph in the end.

We find our good fortune in many ways
I can feel rich though my money is spent
For I can always give something of value away
The smile from my HAPPY CENT.

Found this at a yard sale 😎

Have a great week!!

New post on the blog today around a genius idea - “RoboBuffett”

My boy Ethan Bloch has trained AI on the 🧠 of Warren Buffett, and has now invested $105,100 into this experiment (the same amount Buffett started Berkshire with!) to see if he can replicate his success 😂

Will it work?! Crash miserably? Read more and see how it’s going so far on the blog!
