Cool Ready to learn

We sat in silence on that beautiful Hawaiian Saturday morning. My friends would have just been starting their Little League baseball game. But far some reason, I was now thankful I had decided to work for 10 cents an hour. I sensed that I was about to learn something my friends would not learn in school."Ready to learn?" asked rich dad."Absolutely," I said with a grin."I have kept my promise. I've been teaching you from afar," my rich dad said. "At 9 years old, you've gotten a taste of what it feels like to work for money. Just multiply your last month by fifty years and you will have an idea of what most people spend their life doing.""I don't understand," I said."How did you feel waiting in line to see me? Once to get hired and once to ask for more money?""Terrible," I said."If you choose to work for money, that is what life is like for many people," said rich dad."And how did you feel when Mrs. Martin dropped three dimes in your hand for three hours' work?""I felt like it wasn't enough. It seemed like nothing. I was disappointed," I said."And that is how most employees feel when they look at their paychecks. Especially after all the tax and other deductions are taken out. At least you got 100 percent.""So is there an answer?" asked Mike.dog clothing, "Yes," said rich dad. dog clothes wholesale "Learn to use your emotions to think, not think with your emotions. When you boys mastered your emotions, first by agreeing to work for free,dog apparel, I knew there was hope. When you again resisted your emotions when I tempted you with more money, pet clothes, you were again learning to think in spite of being emotionally charged. pet clothing, That's the first step.""Why is that step so important" I asked.

^^^I believe you mean 'reserve'. To sell on E-bay, just start the bid price at $100.00 less than the minimum you are willing to accept for the sale. Anyone that sells a car without a reserve or minimum bid is going to take a huge hit.

Maybe not clear on my post, the reserve was not met, owner still has car, and given the fact that car prices are dropping almost as fast as houses, he may have to keep it for a while.
