broke

by Cynth'ya Lewis Reed — Read all 584 poems by Cynth'ya Lewis Reed

We all have a relationship with money. Some of us haven't learned how to be more effective when it comes to the taxing game.

Wednesday, January 2, 2008


Poem Artwork


save-a-little
take-a-bundle
make some headway
take a tumble;

see the light
beyond the hole
that robs the purse
& mugs the soul;

two sets of rules
for those in power
not those who labor
hour by hour;

if time is money
so they say,
who knows the rules?
who teaches the way?

Note: What Cynth'ya found out about taxes, and how we're finally beating Uncle Sam:

For Info Only...
www.ladiesofteamvision.com

1.Look at both videos. (Very brief)

2. Do the tax survey put together by a woman in Team Vision of YTB who does a tax call every Wednesday, starting again Jan. 9 (Check "Events" for that date on Cynth'ya's authorsden site.)

 


& click "YTB Ed" link for tax education call details.  (Good for anyone who wants to save on taxes, not just travel professionals).


TIME BALANCE:
As far as time balance/management/sanity and peace of mind, here's a great reference: 

The Pareto Principle, a.k.a.The 80/20 Rule. The pay off is amazing on one's body mind and spirit.

Nice and very informative write my friend. There have always been two sets of laws and rules that is why those on top write all the laws and rules for all below them to follow. Those on the top have always been exempt....

Be safe,
Karen

Unique, wit-wise... "broke" strikes thoughts on political awareness.

Social responsibilty, Justice, professional dedication and ethical compliance, instruction and fraternity will show the way.

In admiration,
