A FB article written by my friend Jackson Yeow which I thought was worthwhile sharing with my friends.
The GRUNCH of Giants,
by R Buckminster Fuller.
Written in 1981, against the backdrop of the cold war between USA and the USSR, whence the latter attained an alarming multi-to-one ratio in their traditional air, army and navy forces against their counterpart, and where the former was busy researching and mass producing atomic warheads to deter their "enemies" and establish their weaponry superiority, and with the USSR also chasing behind with not only an equally earth-shattering number of atomic warheads but also precise geodetic data of each critical US target, this 64 paged book, 3 hour read, written by Buckminster Fuller brings the world a whole new perspective that for the first time in human history we have the technological knowhow to drastically improve each single human's standard of living to a never before imagined comfort level, all supported by the abundance of Mother Earth's resources. That is, if we do not commit race suicide by "pressing the button" first.
75,000 people, or one stadium-full of people – that was the amount of casualties directly impacted by the first atomic bomb ever unleashed onto humanity, in Japan. The mere thought of that is extremely cruel and excruciatingly painful and saddening. Yet, more than 75,000 people starve to death on Earth EACH DAY despite an abundance of food and food wastage. Such is the ridiculous irony of some of humanity, to be so egoic as to push forward with ever more nuclear warheads by "robbing" its citizens of their past, current and future taxes and livingry benefits and pumping that same amount into weaponry. All that was achieved was to accumulate ever more power at an ever increasing rate to end all of humanity in one hour.
Bucky proclaimed repeatedly that if humanity did not commit race suicide by "pressing the button" first, that this second humanity-threatening issue of starvation is easily solvable, except there are giants blocking the path of an one-race human evolution. The GRUNCH of Giants, or GRoss UNiverse Cash Heist by Giants, literally refers to the unnamed, unseen, unbeknownst and nonhumane cross-countries corporations which have over the centuries perfected their capitalism knowhow to usurp more and more power for their own interests and robbing its citizens in broad daylight.
Dr Buckminster Fuller goes on to condense 30,000 years of human history into a couple of chapters including explaining amongst many things why humanity came to accept a home as "property", land as "real estate" in the sense of "real" as in "royalty", how the East India company came to formation, how the current banking system started way back in the days, how humans from Southeast Asia arrived by rafts on the western shores of current day North America and South America via the seemingly out-of-mind Polynesia-Japan Current-North America route, how the Morgan corporation stood to profit from World War I and eventually grew to become one of the Giants GRUNCH-ing its own citizens through a cleverly design scheme now known as inflation, which really means deflation of the dollar's buying power.
My biggest takeaway is the excerpt of Henry Ford Senior, the founder of the Ford company, where Bucky claims the great man had an inspiring proposition to "make sense" in his original mission to empower farmers to transport their goods in a faster manner, and fought hard to buy back the company's shares at great economic costs from its financial backers who were pushing Ford to "make profits". Whereas the founder ensured every economic success and profits went directly into upgrading with better equipment and manufacturing ever higher quality vehicles at more affordable prices, his successor-son and grandson completely lost sight of his original mission and sought after "making more profits" in the company's later years. "Making sense" and "making profits", Bucky wrote, was mutually exclusive. I contemplated on that for a long while, and thought about how businesses can strike a balance between the two mutually exclusive ends. Bucky reminded that the Giants are much like the later-years Ford – all for "making profits", whereas he also specifically shared his opinion that Japanese companies have stayed true to their roots of adding value to humanity, seemingly "making sense" while "making some profits", I am heartened to know I am guided along Bucky's path.
This book is full of critical historical insights and is an inspiration for humanity to think and act from a larger perspective and from a higher point. Be forewarned – Once you start reading, you may find it hard to stop for our dear Bucky has written in an absolutely engaging time-leaping manner where each sentence is turbo-charged and heavily weighted – your brains might be bonged out of its current vibrations. It certainly inspired me to read his other books, Critical Path and Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth.
with love,
Jackson Yeow
P.S. i hope you enjoy reading this as much as i did, enjoy your weekend! :) <3 _/|\_

Keep a group of good friends
Saw this wonderful message on the FB and thought it's worthwhile to share...
Many years ago, a newly wed young man was sitting on a couch on a hot, humid day, sipping frozen juice during a visit to his father.
As he talked about adult life, marriage, responsibilities, and obligations, the father thoughtfully stirred the ice cubes in his glass and cast a clear, sober look on his son.
"Never forget your friends," he advised, "they will become more important as you get older."
"Regardless of how much you love your family and the children you happen to have, you will always need friends.
"Remember to go out with them occasionally, do activities with them, call them."
"What strange advice!" Thought the young man.
"I just entered the married world, I am an adult and surely my wife and the family that we will start will be everything I need to make sense of my life."
Yet he obeyed his father; kept in touch with his friends and annually increased their number. Over the years, he became aware that his father knew what he was talking about.
In as much as time and nature carry out their designs and mysteries on a man, friends were the bulwarks of his life.
After 50 years of life, here is what he learned:
Time passes.
Life goes on.
The distance separates.
Children grow up.
Children cease to be children and become independent. And to the parents it breaks the heart but the children are separated of the parents.
Jobs come and go.
Illusions, desires, attraction, sex ... weaken.
People do not do what they should do.
The heart breaks.
Parents die.
Colleagues forget the favors.
The races are over.
But, true friends are always there, no matter how long or how many miles they are.
A friend is never more distant than the reach of a need, a call from you, intervening in your favor, waiting for you with open arms or blessing your life.
When we started this adventure called LIFE, we did not know of the incredible joys or sorrows that were ahead.
We did not know how much we would need from each other.
Love your parents, take care of your children, but keep a group of good friends.

錢都是這些人賺走的。。。
錢都是這些人賺走的。。。
1、頭腦靈活的人
讀書學習好與壞與做生意賺錢完全是兩碼事，書讀的好，生意不一定做得好，做生意需要頭腦靈活多變，想到就要做到。
2、效率高地人
辦事能力和辦事效率很強的人，一旦有賺錢的生意馬上一步一個腳印的去做，要付諸於行動，敢做、敢幹，只有這樣才能抓住機會。
3、不安於現狀，不斷努力的人
「一天三頓飽，老婆孩子熱炕頭」，一輩子捧著「鐵飯碗」的人，永遠沒有賺錢的機會，「夠用就行，要那麼多錢幹嘛「這句話是那些賺不到錢的人聊以自慰的「名言」。
4、真正受過窮的人
就像「貌不驚人「的男人一心一意的追求漂亮的女孩往往能成功一樣，受窮的人因為感受到了貧窮的切膚之痛，而愈有賺錢的慾望和精神。
5、有人生財富目標的人
一個人單調的上下班，把固定的工資存在銀行，年復一年，到頭來也攢不了很多錢。想賺大錢就要立誌經商，而且目標也要水漲船高，選定10萬、20萬、100萬為奮鬥目標，擁有一千萬才算是富翁。
6、拋棄「面子」的人
想發財要不怕羞，當您在大街小巷推銷產品時不要怕被別人看不起。
7、勤奮好動的人
多看、多想、多做、超越常理，出奇致勝，「鬼點子」越多越能賺錢。
8、最能創新的人
做生意第一要決就是眼光獨到，想別人未想的事，走在別人前面，讓別人在後面追。例如：您發現一種商品很符合當地實情，判斷自己進回來一定暢銷，這是生意人掙錢的準則，等把市場鋪開了，別人跟風就晚了。
9、很有自信心的人
無論做什麼事首先要有信心，相信自己是最優秀的，最棒的，這樣您就能把自己最大的潛能發揮出來，「信念」是通向經商致富路上的指明燈。
10、個性豪爽的人
成功的企業家或商人都是爽快人，辦事豪爽，乾淨利落，不拖泥帶水。
11、善於冒險果斷的人
辦事果斷，憑膽量論成敗。獨木橋的故事：有一座獨木橋，橋對面有一片豐碩的果林，果實又大又好，膽大的人，憑膽量快速走過獨木橋，摘得很多的碩果，而膽小的人，膽小不敢過橋，而沒有摘得一枚碩果。
12、善於學習總結的人
在平時的經商中，多與人交流，聽取別人的意見和想法，不斷總結，以豐富自己的經商經驗。
13、能吃苦耐勞的人
做生意的一年365天都不休息，風裡來雨裏去，生活沒有規律，搬運貨物相當辛苦，請您相信「天道酬勤」的道理。
14、不斷進取的人
遇到挫折不屈不撓，哪裡摔倒了就在哪裡爬起來。例如：您做一次不成功，兩次、三次……哪怕是做99次不成功。第100次您成功了，那您這一生就是一個成功的人。
15、善於抓住機遇的人
在人們的生活中，在自己的身邊往往有很多的機遇，只是由於疏忽而沒有發現，讓機遇溜掉，或者是讓別人發現實施了，所以平時生活中對周圍的事物多看、多想、多做，對自己發現和創造機遇有很大的好處。
16、珍惜時間的人
浪費時間就等於浪費財富。對於經商的人來說「時間就是金錢」一點都有沒錯。賺錢靠的是珍惜時間，利用時間。天天早睡晚起做懶漢是賺不到更多的財富的。人的生命是有限的，特別是在年輕力壯，思維敏捷的年齡階段，多創造財富，老來才能享用。

Potato Chips with God
Potato Chips with God
A little boy wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip to where God lived. So he packed his suitcase with a bag of potato chips and a six-pack of Soft Drink and started his journey.
When he had gone about three blocks, he met an old man. He was sitting in the
park, just staring at some pigeons. The boy sat down next to him and opened his
suitcase. He was about to take a drink from his Bottle when he noticed that the old man looked hungry, so he offered him some chips. He gratefully accepted it and
smiled at him.
His smile was so pretty that the boy wanted to see it again, so he offered him a
soft drink. Again, he smiled at him. The boy was delighted! They sat there all
afternoon eating and smiling, but they never said a word...
As twilight approached, the boy realized how tired he was and he got up to leave;
But before he had gone more than a few steps, he turned around, ran back to the old man, and gave him a hug. He gave him his
biggest smile ever...
When the boy opened the door to his own house a short time later, his mother was Surprised by the look of joy on his face. She asked him, "What did you do
today that made you so happy?"
He replied, "I had lunch with God." But before his mother could respond, he added,
"You know what? He's got the most beautiful smile I've ever seen!"
Meanwhile, the old man, also radiant with joy, returned to his home. His son was Stunned by the look of peace on his face and he asked, "dad, what did you do today that made you so happy?"
He replied "I ate potato chips in the park with God." However, before his son responded, he added, "You know, he's much younger than I expected."
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. People come into our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime!
Embrace all equally!
Have lunch with God...bring chips.
