Investing
Investing is a popular trend today and everyone hopes to get back more than they put in. I want to take a moment to list some of my investors. These are people who I believe have contributed to me, it is not an exhaustive list, but enought to get you thinking about your investors. I encourage you to take a moment and write out your portfolio of investors as well.

Be devoted to one another with mutual love, showing eagerness in honoring one another. Romans 12:10
Two people are better than one, because they can reap more benefit from their labor. 10 For if they fall, one will help his companion up, but pity the person who falls down and has no one to help him up. – Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
“There are three things to remember when teaching: know your stuff; know whom you are stuffing; and then stuff them elegantly”
