Quotes of the Day

With a few exceptions, such as glioblastoma or other aggressive brain tumors, as well as certain lung and liver cancers, solid organ tumors typically kill you only when they spread to other organs. Breast cancer kills only when it becomes metastatic. Prostate cancer kills only when it becomes metastatic. You could live without either of those organs. So when you hear the sad story of someone dying from breast or prostate cancer, or even pancreatic or colon cancer, they died because the cancer spread to other, more critical organs such as the brain, the lungs, the liver, and bones. When cancer reaches those places, survival rates drop precipitously. [2023] - Peter Attia

If I was in a high-income bracket and had maxed out on my contributions to RRSPs and TFSAs, but I still wanted to invest more, real estate might be the way to do it. It's more tax-effective than some types of investment. Also, it would be a good way to take advantage of low interest rates. [2021] - Frederick Vettese

If you have any desire of being rich, you must focus. Put a lot of your eggs in a few baskets. Do not do what poor and middle class people do: put their few eggs in many baskets. [1998] - Robert T. Kiyosaki

Virtually any form of cellular or DNA damage may cause cancer, including chemicals, radiation, and viruses, but only under extremely specific conditions. The damage induced must be both sublethal and chronic. To cause cancer, cell damage cannot be too much or too little. An overwhelming injury will simply kill all the cells, leaving no chance for cancer to develop. Too little cellular damage, however, is simply repaired by the normal DNA-repair mechanisms. Chronicity is the second key attribute of carcinogens. A single large dose of radiation is far less carcinogenic than chronic low-level radiation. [2020] - Jason Fung
