"Think of interest as whipped cream and a piece of cake as the principal. A smaller piece of cake limits the amount of surface area there is to put whipped cream on"-Paco de Leon, Finance for the People: Getting a Grip on Your Finances
"Here are some examples: Breathwork is a really amazing tool because you can do it anywhere, anytime. Strenuous exercise, or other types of physical activity like going for a walk, running or riding a bicycle. Listening to music, using a weighted blanket, taking a warm or a cold bath, smelling something like essential oils or a flower. Dancing, humming or singing. Socializing, connecting with a loved one and laughing. Getting a massage, simply stretching your body and doing grateful flow exercise are all ways to regulate your nervous system before approaching a financial decision."-Paco de Leon, Finance for the People: Getting a Grip on Your Finances
"Your financial life is like a sandcastle. You spend time tending to it, building it, and making decisions and choices that you hope will keep it from crumbling. You can control what you can, but there are always things outside of your control—like whether or not, you have the right tools or someone to help you build, when the tide will change and when the waves will start to move in. Financial shocks and emergencies are the waves threatening your sandcastle. The thing about the tides—and emergencies is—they will always come. Sometimes very suddenly as if out of the blue, and sometimes gradually. When it does come in, hopefully you’ll have dug that trench or built that wall. In the same way a trench or a wall is the best defense in weathering the shock of a changing tide, an emergency fund is the first line of defense against a financial shock."-Paco de Leon, Finance for the People: Getting a Grip on Your Finances
