A new year, a new lease

We signed a year lease this evening. Not very exciting to most, I know, but it represents a year of certainty to us – and that’s huge.

If you ask me to name the proudest distinction of Americans, I would choose—because it contains all the others—the fact that they were the people who created the phrase “to make money.” No other language or nation had ever used these words before; men had always thought of wealth as a static quantity – to be seized, begged, inherited, shared, looted or obtained as a favor. Americans were the first to understand that wealth has to be created. —Ayn Rand
