FUNNY QUOTE - “Getting older is all about knowing a guy. A tax guy, a car guy, a plumbing guy, a yard guy. I don’t measure wealth in terms of money but how many guys you know.” — Stash_Bham SERIOUS QUOTE – “No one knows what they’re doing. Nobody. Not even ones with degrees, and big job titles and more things than you. Not even the people on your vision board. Everyone is just trying loudly, failing loudly, and trying again. And so should you.” — Kaya Nova
