“You’re either part of the solution,
or you’re part of the problem.”
-- Eldridge Cleaver
“You’re either financing the solution,
or you’re financing the problem.”
-- Solari
Freedom can not be bought with money; individual financial
security is not sufficient to achieve personal freedom.
Freedom comes from a collaborative effort to invest in
freedom and to achieve the wealth created from freedom...
