        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

            This graphic translates your position in within-country income distribution to worldwide income distribution. So the median income earner in the US is at the 93rd percentile globally.

                This resonates with what I’ve thought for a while.

                Education is extremely important.

                        If you have like 200 acres and your house was in the middle of the land, then having a mass of houses build around you is kind of okay. But, with the way their land is......... Yuck. Definitely not worth staying I dont think.

                            I remember a column by George Will back in the 80s where he talked about Truman being the last ‘regular guy’ president in many ways (my words not his). The examples I remember was that he was the last president who didn’t go to college, and he was the last president who walked across the street to do his banking.

                              IIRC, he walked across the street to work, when the WH was undergoing renovation. There was an assassination attempt on him as well.
