I think the best workout and one that people generally neglect in lieu of going to the gym and lifting or running is sport.Go walk a few holes of golf everyday, play some tennis, take a walk with your spouse, play some sports with your kids, etc.

We bid out our most valuable positions to Indians willing to work for 30% of what people in The States will work for.

(This is a valuable thing, though, considering how many people have difficulty with financial discipline.)Kevin Yeats, your observation about the higher transaction costs of homes compared to stocks is valid.

I personally never have used any of these overly marketed 'best thing since sliced bread' program, whether it be a red pill, blue pill or magic fairy dust :roll: My most recent negotiators started to use this OpenRoad system which I wasn't to excited about at first but after getting access to it and checking it out, I really do enjoy it and see its very valuable to my business.
