Quotes of the Day

When you evaluate the cost of a product or service, think in terms of total, long-term costs. People who sell particular products and services may initially appear to have your best interests at heart when they steer you towards something that isn't costly. However, you may be in for a rude awakening when you discover the ongoing service, maintenance, and other fees you face in the years ahead. Sometimes, paying a reasonable amount more upfront for a high-quality product or service ends up saving you money in the long run. [2019] - Eric Tyson

Having a test called the high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) can help you determine whether you have chronic inflammation and need to take aggressive measures. Any prolonged elevation of your CRP, as well as any prolonged elevation of oxidative stress indicators (such as oxidized LDL), is a perfectly good reason to clean up your act. [2006] - Elizabeth Motyka

Real assets fall into several different categories: 1. Businesses that do not require my presence. I own them, but they are managed or run by other people. If I have to work there, it's not a business. It becomes my job. 2. Stocks. 3. Bonds. 4. Mutual funds. 5. Income-generating real estate. 6. Notes (IOUs). 7. Royalties from intellectual property such as music, scripts, patents. 8. Anything else that has value, produces income or appreciates and has a ready market. [1998] - Robert T. Kiyosaki

Successful trading is often about uncovering tendencies in our trading behaviour that originate from the subconscious mind. [2008] - Yeo Keong Hee

In my own research program in the 1970s and 1980s on experimental rats, as well as in The China Study, we repeatedly established the ability of higher consumption of the milk-based protein casein to dramatically increase a growth hormone associated with increased cancer development. In contrast, high levels of a "low-quality" wheat protein had the opposite effect. Due to its "deficiency" in the amino acid lysine, the wheat protein prevented cancer development. (We know that the missing lysine was responsible for this change because when lysine was restored, cancer growth resumed to the same level as for the casein.) [2020] - T. Colin Campbell
