This might be a political post. But I'd like to keep things as un-political as possible. Because I hate politics. I was watching the news this morning and saw the report stating that Senator Kamala Harris has dropped out of the presidential race citing a lack of campaign funds. And it kind of made me … Continue reading Dropping Out
Money
Question of the Week #199
You are given $1,000,000 to donate anonymously to charity or to a stranger. How would you dispose of it? At the moment, I'd go ahead and give it to my church. We're in the process of building our own ministry center after 18 years of meeting in a middle school. Raising the money for this … Continue reading Question of the Week #199
Unexpected Provision
Quick show of hands... How many of you, out there, spend time in prayer? I'm not just talking about when you're in the car and you nearly miss sideswiping or rear-ending someone in traffic and you shout a short, "Thank God I missed that car!" I mean... How many of you sit down and purposefully … Continue reading Unexpected Provision
Question of the Week #180
For $1 million, would you be willing to never again see or speak to your best friend? I don't think so, no. While $1 million is a great deal of money, it's not really all that much in the scheme of things. Money is fleeting. But a true friendship, like the kind I would expect … Continue reading Question of the Week #180
Broke as a Joke
It's humbling to watch that beautiful new paycheck containing your brand new salary as it suddenly dwindles down to nothing. I'm not trying to say that I was foolhardy with my paycheck. No... In fact, I started out being pretty wise about how my newfound wealth was to be spent and/or saved. See, I've gone … Continue reading Broke as a Joke
Question of the Week #164
If someone offered you a large amount of money for some information about one of your company's products, would you accept it? Assume you know you won't be discovered. Well... I work for a church. So, I guess our "product" is Jesus. And since what He has to offer is free to everyone willing to … Continue reading Question of the Week #164
Question of the Week #162
For $2,000 would you be willing to stand up in a crowded restaurant and, for at least a minute, loudly berate a waitress for some trivial imperfection in the service? If not, consider how grateful the waitress would be if you did so and later split the money with her. No. I'm not going to … Continue reading Question of the Week #162
Is MoviePass Still Worth It?
It was roughly a year ago when I first heard rumblings of this phenomenon called MoviePass. I didn't really look into it too deeply, but the gist of it was this: You pay a flat fee each month, and then you can go to the theater to see as many movies as you want. Sounds too … Continue reading Is MoviePass Still Worth It?
Question of the Week #120
Would you accept $10,000 to shave your head and continue your normal activities sans hat or wig without explaining the reason for your haircut? I feel like this would be a harder question for a woman to answer. For me, no doubt in my mind. I'd shave my head for a lot less than ten … Continue reading Question of the Week #120
Question of the Week #113
If you could take a one-month trip anywhere in the world and money were not a consideration, where would you go and what would you do? Australia. Even though I am of the firm belief that just about every living creature on that continent has been bred to destroy humanity, I've always been fascinated by … Continue reading Question of the Week #113
