In Praise of Buffer and Redundancy
Why do we have two kidneys? Nature’s smart solution:
Redundancy.
I love cash
To have a fat “war chest” of money. This is smart. Especially in times of want and need.
In praise of living like a spartan
To live like a poor person like a spartan. Very smart idea. Why? In times of crisis, your lifestyle isn’t affected.
Better safe than sorry
What is wiser?
To be overly cautious and remain alive, or to be incautious and die?
