Some people, especially thin individuals, require more calories and more fat to sustain their weight. This is usually resolved by including raw nuts, raw nut butters, avocados, and other healthy foods that are nutrient-rich and high in fat and calories. Even these naturally thin individuals will significantly improve their health and lower their risk of degenerative diseases if they reduce their dependency on animal foods and instead consume more plant-derived fats, such as those in nuts. [2011] - Joel Fuhrman

Achieving a goal of just 1 percent per month would put you well ahead of most traders, since the majority of traders lose money. While a goal of 2 percent per month may not sound awe inspiring, if we can achieve it consistently, the annual gain will be just shy of 27 percent—and you’ll have outperformed most mutual funds and hedge funds. If you have successfully achieved your modest goal for three months in a row, raise the goal to the next plateau—from a 1 percent monthly goal to 2 percent, or from 2 percent to 3 percent, and so on. By the time you work your way up to consistent monthly returns of 3 percent and then 4 percent, you’ll be putting up respectable numbers, and you’ll have gained the benefit of months of experience. If you can achieve consistent monthly gains of 5 percent or 6 percent, you will have truly joined the elite. [2007] - Ed Ponsi

Usually, an offer should not come as a surprise. It should be a natural outgrowth of the discussion so far. It need not be a "take-it-or-leave-it" proposal. [1991] - Roger Fisher
