Quotes of the Day

Stocks of large companies - value and growth combined - should make up 50-70% of your total domestic stock portfolio. The higher your risk tolerance, the closer you'll want to be to the lower end of that range. Whatever your allocation to domestic large cap stocks, we recommend that you invest 40-50% of that amount in large growth. Take a tilt toward value, if you wish, but don't tilt so far that you risk tipping over. [2013] - Russell Wild

Do not ask a professional to give away her fortune for free. [2009] - Leil Lowndes

White socks are out; your socks should be the same color as your shoes or pants. If during warm weather you are wearing deck shoes or sandals, ditch the socks altogether (whether you are wearing pants or shorts). The same goes for undershirts - white is not fashionable. Buy several t-shirts of different colors to match your outerwear. [2012] - Christopher Gray

An important part of any focusing regimen is to set aside time at the end of the day--just before going to sleep--to acknowledge your successes, review your goals, focus on your successful future, and make specific plans for what you want to accomplish the next day. [2005] - Jack Canfield

The longevity benefits associated with nuts (including peanuts) do not appear to extend to peanut butter, perhaps due to the lack of intact cellular structures that deliver a bounty of prebiotic goodness to our friendly gut flora. The healthiest nut, however, is probably walnuts. Not only do they have some of the highest antioxidant and omega-3 levels, but walnuts are the only nuts known to significantly improve artery function, and they beat out others in suppressing cancer cell growth in vitro. [2023] - Michael Greger
