The thing that makes gold and FIAT valuable is simply belief, trust.

What is their basis for this belief? 

Now to figure out how to delete this one...I have been a 10+ year mint.com user and religiously track my expenses.

I came from doing everything self motivated and always had a battle with all the things i do in life, and continue to try and cultivate positive self-belief.

It’s great that you're exploring private equity as an alternative to traditional lending due to your religious considerations.

The only difference is that there might be an explainable rationale for holding on to a property, such as a well-founded belief that equity gains are coming (such as owning a house in a rapidly growing area or property where the next commercial boom is headed), whereas with gambling your odds never change regardless of your losses.

They’ll probe the motivation of the opposing side and NEVER belief any answer.

It is my belief that the rent to purchase ratio has never been worse.  

You can go to Chamber of Commerce meetings, if you belong to a religious organization that’s a great way to network.

It was totally weird he had one room full of religious items and one room full of tapes toys and magazines.
