STOP ARGUING WITH DONKEYS?
STOP WASTING YOUR TIME WITH DONKEYS!
WHEN IGNORANCE SCREAMS, INTELLIGENCE SHUTS UP. STOP ARGUING WITH STUPID!
The Story of the Donkey and Tiger. The donkey told the tiger: ′′The grass is blue”. The tiger replied: ′′No, the grass is green”. The discussion became heated up, and the two decided to submit the issue to arbitration; to do so, they approached the lion, King of the Jungle. Before reaching the clearing in the forest where the lion was sitting on his throne, the donkey started screaming: ′′Your Highness, is it true that grass is blue?” The lion replied: “True, the grass is blue.” The donkey rushed forward, and continued:′′The tiger disagrees with me and contradicts me and annoyed me; please punish him.” The king then declared: ′′The tiger will be punished with five years of silence”. The donkey jumped for joy and went on his way, content and repeating:′′The grass is blue”…The tiger accepted his punishment, but he asked the lion: ′′Your Majesty, why have you punished me, after all, the grass is green?” The lion replied: ′′In fact, the grass is green.” The tiger asked: ′′So why do you punish me?” The lion replied:′′That has nothing to do with the question of whether the grass is blue or green. The punishment is because it is not possible for a brave, intelligent creature like you to waste time arguing with a donkey and, on top of that, to come and bother me with that question”.
The worst waste of time is arguing with an IDIOT who does not care about truth or reality but only the victory of their beliefs and illusions. Just recall any political commercials! Never waste time on discussions that make no sense.
There are people who do not have the ability to understand and others who are blinded by ego, hatred, and resentment, and the only thing that they want is to be right regardless of facts.

ABOUT ME
I am a proud nerd (as my beautiful wife and daughter have told me) investment and finance blogger with an N.C. State, Chemical Engineering, University Rutgers, MBA and Harvard University, Advanced Management education.
I left a corporate career because I desired to make a difference as a speaker and writer. I was blessed to be coached and mentored by strong women and men in my family and professional life. It is my time to serve and give back.
DISCLAIMER
I started my first business at ~13 years of age (a small but brilliantly created plant nursery). I am a successful investor in stocks, options, real estate and am happy to share my finance and investment lessons. I am NOT a licensed financial advisor. Please do not construe my suggestions on this blog as recommendations for your situation. As an investor, you must establish your risk/loss tolerance.
