Eleanor Butler was genuinely shockedScarlett smiled at Rhett, pleased that he could make fun of something that he took as seriously as this ballHe'd told her all about it, how many years and years it had been going on-everything in Charleston seemed to have been around for at least a hundred years-how it was completely run by men Only men could be members of the Society"Step down, Scarlett," said Rhett, "you should feel right at home hereThis building is the Hibernian HallInside you'll see a plaque with the harp of Ireland in best gold paint Don't be rude," scolded his motherScarlett stepped out with her pugnacious chin-so like her Irish father's-held highWhat were those Yankee soldiers doing? Scarlett's throat contracted with momentary fearWere they planning to cause trouble because they'd been beaten by the ladies before? Then she saw the crowds behind them, eager faces bobbing from side to side in an effort to see the figures emerging from the carriagesWhy, the Yankees are holding people back to make a path for us! Just like servants, like the torch boys or the footmenWhy don't they just give up and go away? Nobody pays them any mind anyhowShe looked over the heads of the soldiers and smiled brilliantly at the staring crowds before she stepped down from the carriage blockIf only she could have had a new gown instead of this tired old thing She'd just have to make the best of itShe took three steps forward, then expertly cast the gown's train from across her arm to fall behind herIt spread out on the white walkway, untouched by dust, to sweep regally behind her as she promenaded into The Ball of the Season She paused in the entrance hall, waiting for the othersHer eyes were drawn upward, following the graceful arc of the staircase to the second floor's wide landing and the glittering candlelit crystal chandelier suspended over the soaring open spac | | 2:15 am |

No, it couldn't be Rhett, not unless he'd shaved off hismustacheThe big man who wasn't Rhett stepped unevenly across the doorsill"I came to meet my sister," he saidThe words slurred togetherMargaret Butler ran towards Eleanor"I tried to stop him," she cried, "but he was in one of those moods-I couldn't get him to listen, Miss Eleanor"Hush, Margaret," she said with quiet urgency"Ross, I'm waiting for a proper greeting Her voice was unusually loud, the words very distinctScarlett's mind was clear nowSo this was Rhett's brother And drunk, too, by the look of himWell, she'd seen drunk men before, they were no special noveltyShe stood, smiled at Ross, her dimple flickering"I declare, Miss Eleanor, how could one lady be so lucky as to have two sons, each one handsomer than the other? Rhett never told me he had such a good-looking brother!"

He had stopped at the head of the stairs "Are these ones new?

"Dude, these are awesome!" 305 It was hard to doubt his sincerity; he'd never called me dude beforeI mounted a couple more steps and then poked his bluejeaned butt with the tip of my crutch He stepped aside, pulling the dolly with him, so I could climb the rest of the way up to Little Pink He was still staring at the pictures "Jack, is this guy at the Scoto really okay? Do you know?" "My Mom says he is, and that's good enough for me Meaning, I think, that it should be good enough for me, tooI guessed it would have to be "She didn't tell me anything about the other partners - I think there are two more - but she says Mr Jack had called in a favor for me "And if he doesn't like these," Jack finished, "he's wack "You think so, huh?"

@@@@@ Even when he was flat broke after a major @@@@@ Even when he was flat broke after a major financial setback, he continued to refer to himself as a rich manHe would cover himself by saying, "There is a difference between being poor and being broke- Broke is temporary, and poor is eternal My poor dad would also say, "I'm not interested in money," or "Money doesn't matter My rich dad always said, "Money is power The power of our thoughts may never be measured or appreciated, but it became obvious to me as a young boy to be aware of my thoughts and how I expressed myselfI noticed that my poor dad was poor not because of the amount of money he earned, which was significant, but because of his thoughts and actionsAs a young boy, having two fathers, I became acutely aware of being careful which thoughts I chose to adopt as my ownWhom should I listen to-my rich dad or my poor dad? Although both men had tremendous respect for education and learning, they disagreed in what they thought was important to learnOne wanted me to study hard, earn a degree and get a good job to work for moneyHe wanted me to study to become a professional, an attorney or an accountant or to go to business school for my MBAThe other encouraged me to study to be rich, to understand how money works and to learn how to have it work for me"I don't work for money!" were words he would repeat over and over, "Money works for me!" At the age of 9, I decided to listen to and learn from my rich dad about moneyIn doing so, I chose not to listen to my poor dad, even though he was the one with all the college degrees
A Lesson From Robert Frost
Robert Frost is my favourite poetAlthough I love many of his poems, my favorite is The Road Not TakenI use its lesson almost daily:
The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden blackOh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads onto way, I doubted if I should ever come back I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence; Two roads diverged in a wood, and I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference Robert Frost(1916)
And that made all the difference Over the years, I have often reflected upon Robert Frost's poemChoosing not to listen to my highly educated dad's advice and attitude about money was a painful decision, but it was a decision that shaped the rest of my life Once I made up my mind whom to listen to, my education about money beganMy rich dad taught me over a period of 30 years, until I was age 39He stopped once he realized that I knew and fully understood what he had been trying to drum into my often thick s | | 2:15 am |

@@@@@
But now in the great open quiet of the @@@@@ But now in the great open quiet of the hills they felt a constraint and fear even through their fatigueThe hills stared down on them when they were in a valley, and in crossing a ridge-line the contrast rendered them naked, as though they could be seen for milesThe country was beautiful; the hills were tinted a canary yellow, and spread about them in an unending run of broad smooth curves, but the men did not appreciate the beautyThey had the isolation, the insignificance of insects traversing an endless beach They walked for a mile across a deep flat valley, and the sun blazed on themThe kunai grass grew to terrifying heightsOn the plain each blade of grass was an inch wide and many feet highSometimes they would trudge for a hundred yards through grass that was over their headsIt roused a new kind of terror in them, drove them on more quickly than was bearableThey felt as though they blundered through a forest, but the forest was not solidIt weaved and swayed, rustled against their limbs, was soft and yielding, and therefore nauseousThey were afraid to let the man in front move too far away, for they could not see more than two or three yards, and so they dogged at each other's heels, the grass whipping nastily into their facesEvery now and then a cloud of gnats would be disturbed and flicker tantalizingly about them, goading their flash with a dozen tiny bitesThere were many spiders in the field, and the webs kept trickling across their faces and hands, lashing them forward in a minor frenzyPollen and bits of grass teased their exposed skin Martinez led the way like an arrow shot across the fieldMost of the time the grass was too tall for him to see, but he directed himself by the sun, never pausing for a momentIt took them only twenty minutes to cross the valley, and then after a short break they trudged over the hills againHere, the tall grass was welcome, for they grasped tufts of it to aid their ascent, and slowed their fall by clutching it on the downslopes of the hillsThe sun continued to beat on them Their first fear of being observed by enemy troops had ebbed in the physical demands of the march, but a new and subtler terror began to obsess themThe land extended so far, was so completely silent, that they became acutely conscious of its unexplored weight, its somnolent brooding resistanceThey remembered a rumor that natives had once lived in this portion of the island, and had died decades ago in a plague of scrub typhus, the survivors moving to another islandUntil now they had never thought about the natives except to miss their labor, but in the vast buzzing silence of the sun and the hills the men forced themselves onward in nervous spasms, halting and starting, their limbs quivering with exertionMartinez led them at a cruel pace as if pursue | | 2:15 am |

"Wash your face," said Scarlett impatiently, thereby revealing her ignorance and the recent date of her return to religionShe dropped her napkin on the table"I've got to be off," she said brisklyI'm going to visit my O'Hara uncles and aunts She didn't want anyone to know that she was trying to buy the convent's share of Tara Especially not her aunts, they gossiped too muchWhy, they might even write to Suellen"What time do we leave in the morning for Mass?" She'd be sure to mention it to the Mother SuperiorNo need to let on that she'd forgotten all about Ash WednesdayWhat a bother it was that she'd left her rosary in CharlestonOh, well, she could buy a new one at her O'Hara uncles' storeIf she remembered correctly, they had everything in there from bonnets to plows "Miss Scarlett, when are we going home to Atlanta? I don't feel comfortable with the folks in your Grandpa's kitchenAnd my shoes is just about wore out from all this walking When are we going home where you got all the fine carriages?"

@@@@@And I had no doubt that if I
asked others, @@@@@And I had no doubt that if I asked others, I'd hear the same anecdote once or twice or a dozen times: She said I can't even draw stick figures, she said if you can't be an athlete, be an athletic supporterAnd why? Because an honest woman may occasionally goof the truth, but a good liar never varies her story I hadn't asked him about the red picnic basket, but I told myself that was all right; if it was in the attic of El Palacio, it would still be there the next day, and the day after thatI told myself there was timeOf course, that's what we always tell ourselves, isn't it? We can't imagine time running out, and God punishes us for what we can't imagine I looked at Girl and Ship No8 with something approaching distaste and threw the cover-sheet over itI never added the red picnic hamper to the bowsprit; I never put a brush to that particular painting again - the final mad descendent of my first sketch in Big Pink, the one 645 I'd named Hello8 may have been the best thing I ever did, but in a strange way, I almost forgot itUntil the show, that wasAfter that I could never forget it vi The picnic basket That damned red picnic basket full of her drawings Even now, four years later, I find myself playing the what-if game, wondering how much would have changed if I'd pushed everything else aside and gone hunting for itIt was found - by Jack Cantori - but by then it was too late And maybe - I can't say for sure - it wouldn't have changed anything, because some force was at work, both on Duma Key and inside Edgar Freemantle Can I say that force brought me there? NoCan I say it didn't? No, I can't say that, eitherBut by the time March became April, it had begun to gain strength and ever so stealthily extend its reach 646 Elizabeth's damned picnic basket vii Wireman's hope that Elizabeth was coming around began to seem unjustifiedShe remained a muttering lump in her wheelchair, every now and then stirring enough to cry out for a cigarette in the cracked voice of an aging parrotHe hired Annmarie Whistler away from Bay Area Private Nursing to come in and help him four days a week The extra help might have eased Wireman's workload, but it did little to comfort him; he was heartsore But that was something I only glimpsed from the corner of my eye as April rolled in, sunny and | | 2:15 am |

@@@@@And while I am glad people have been getting @@@@@And while I am glad people have been getting richer and richer, I only caution that in the long run, it's not how much you make, it's how much you keep, and how many generations you keep it
So when people ask, "Where do I get started?" or "Tell me how to get rich quick," they often are greatly disappointed with my answerI simply say to them what my rich dad said back to me when I was a little kid"If you want to be rich, you need to be financially literate
That idea was drummed into my head every time we were togetherAs I said, my educated dad stressed the importance of reading books, while my rich dad stressed the need to master financial literacy
If you are going to build the Empire State Building, the first thing you need to do is dig a deep hole and pour a strong foundationIf you are going to build a home in the suburbs, all you need to do is pour a 6-inch slab of concreteMost people, in their drive to get rich, are trying to build an Empire State Building on a 6-inch slab
Our school system, having been created in the Agrarian Age, still believes in homes with no foundationDirt floors are still the rageSo kids graduate from school with virtually no financial foundationOne day, sleepless and deep in debt in suburbia, living the American Dream, they decide that the answer to their financial problems is to find a way to get rich quick
Construction on the skyscraper beginsIt goes up quickly, and soon, instead of the Empire State Building, we have the Leaning Tower of SuburbiaThe sleepless nights return
As for Mike and me in our adult years, both of our choices were possible because we were taught to pour a strong financial foundation when we were just kids
Now, accounting is possibly the most boring subject in the worldIt also could be the most confusingBut if you want to be rich, long term, it could be the most important subjectThe question is, how do you take a boring and confusing subject and teach it to kids? The answer is, make it simpleTeach it first in pictures My rich dad poured a strong financial foundation for Mike and meSince we were just kids, he created a simple way to teach usFor years he only drew pictures and used wor | | 2:15 am |
