Ray asked, once the group had all their beers in hand "Everyone laughed," said Keith"Most of the MBA students thought Ray was just fooling around No one answered, so Ray asked the question again"What business do you think I'm in?" The students laughed again, and finally one brave soul yelled out, "Ray, who in the world does not know that you're in the hamburger business"That is what I thought you would say He paused and then quickly said, 'ladies and gentlemen, I'm not in the hamburger businessMy business is real estate Keith said that Ray spent a good amount of time explaining his viewpoint In their business plan, Ray knew that the primary business focus was to sell hamburger franchises, but what he never lost sight of was the location of each franchiseHe knew that the real estate and its location was the most significant factor in the success of each franchiseBasically, the person that bought the franchise was also paying for, buying, the land under the franchise for Ray Kroc's organization McDonald's today is the largest single owner of real estate in the world, owning even more than the Catholic ChurchToday, McDonald's owns some of the most valuable intersections and street corners in America, as well as in other parts of the world Keith said it was one of the most important lessons in his lifeToday, Keith owns car washes, but his business is the real estate under those car washes The previous chapter ended with the diagrams illustrating that most people work for everyone else but themselvesThey work first for the owners of the company, then for the government through taxes, and finally for the bank that owns their mortgage As a young boy, we did not have a McDonald's nearbyYet, my rich dad was responsible for teaching Mike and me the same lesson that Ray Kroc talked about at the University of Texas The secret is: "Mind your own business/' Financial struggle is often directly the result of people working all their life for someone elseMany people will have nothing at the end of their working days Again, a picture is worth a thousand words Here is a diagram of the income statement and balance sheet that best describes Ray Kroc's advice:

To carry this a step further, there are @@@@@ To carry this a step further, there are two forces constraining the projectile to its pathIf not for them, the missile would forever rise on the same straight line These forces are gravity and wind resistance and their effect is proportional to the square of the time; they become greater and greater, feeding upon themselves in a senseThe projectile wants to go this way and gravity goes down and wind resistance goes These parasite forces grow greater and greater as time elapses, hastening the decline, shortening the rangeIf only gravity were working, the path would be symmetrical it is the wind resistance that produces the tragic curve In the larger meanings of the curve, gravity would occupy the place of mortality (what goes up must come down) and wind resistance would be the resistance of the mediumthe mass inertia or the inertia of the masses through which the vision, the upward leap of a culture is blunted, slowed, brought to its early doom

I looked at the heron on the tennis courtIt stood by the net, as still as a hand on a broken clock, and looked back at me pitilesslyThat was all right; it is, for the most part, a pitiless world vii Now I had memoryIt was no longer in perfect working order, and to this day I sometimes get confused about names and the order in which certain things happened, but every moment of our expedition to the house at the south end of Duma 933 Key remains clear in my mind - like the first movie that ever amazed me or the first painting that ever took my breath away (The Hailstorm, by Thomas Hart Benton)Yet at first I felt cold, divorced from it all, like a slightly jaded patron of the arts looking at a picture in a second-rate museumIt wasn't until Jack found the doll inside the staircase going up to nowhere that I started to realize I was in the picture instead of just looking at itAnd that there was no going back for any of us unless we could stop herI knew she was strong; if she could reach all the way to Omaha and Minneapolis to get what she wanted, then all the way to Providence to keep it, of course she was strongAnd still I underestimated her Until we were actually in that house at the south end of Duma Key, I didn't realize how strong Perse was viii I wanted Jack to drive, and Wireman to sit in the back seatWhen Wireman asked why, I said I had my reasons, and I thought they'd become apparent in 934 short order"And if I'm wrong about that," I added, "no one will be any more delighted than me Jack backed onto the road and turned southMore out of curiosity than anything else, I punched on the radio and was rewarded with Billy Ray Cyrus, bellowing about his achy breaky heartJack groaned and reached for it, probably meaning to find The BoneBefore he could, Billy Ray was swallowed in a burst of deafening static | | Tuesday, December 7th, 2010 | | 2:58 am |
@@@@@Each sister believed herself the @@@@@Each sister believed herself the favouriteJulia might be justified in so doing by the hints of MrsGrant, inclined to credit what she wished, and Maria by the hints of Mr Everything returned into the same channel as before his absence; his manners being to each so animated and agreeable as to lose no ground with either, and just stopping short of the consistence, the steadiness, the solicitude, and the warmth which might excite general notice Fanny was the only one of the party who found anything to dislike; but since the day at Sotherton, she could never see MrCrawford with either sister without observation, and seldom without wonder or censure; and had her confidence in her own judgment been equal to her exercise of it in every other respect, had she been sure that she was seeing clearly, and judging candidly, she would probably have made some important communications to her usual confidantAs it was, however, she only hazarded a hint, and the hint was lost“I am rather surprised,” said she, “that MrCrawford should come back again so soon, after being here so long before, full seven weeks; for I had understood he was so very fond of change and moving about, that I thought something would certainly occur, when he was once gone, to take him elsewhereHe is used to much gayer places than Mansfield “It is to his credit,” was Edmund’s answer; “and I dare say it gives his sister pleasureShe does not like his unsettled habits 103 Jane Austen “What a favourite he is with my cousins!” “Yes, his manners to women are such as must pleaseGrant, I believe, suspects him of a preference for Julia; I have never seen much symptom of it, but I wish it may be soHe has no faults but what a serious attachment would remove “If Miss Bertram were not engaged,” said Fanny cautiously, “I could sometimes almost think that he admired her more than Julia “Which is, perhaps, more in favour of his liking Julia best, than you, Fanny, may be aware; for I believe it often happens that a man, before he has quite made up his own mind, will distinguish the sister or intimate friend of the woman he is really thinking of more than the woman herself Crawford has too much sense to stay here if he found himself in any danger from Maria; and I am not at all afraid for her, after such a proof as she has given that her feelings are not strong Fanny supposed she must have been mistaken, and meant to think differently in future; but with all that submission to Edmund could do, and all the help of the coinciding looks and hints which she occasionally noticed in some of the others, and which seemed to say that Julia was MrCrawford’s choice, she knew not always what to thinkShe was privy, one evening, to the hopes of her aunt Norris on the subject, as well as to her feelings, and the feelings of Mrs Rushworth, on a point of some similarity, and could not help wondering as she listened; and glad would she have been not to be obliged to listen, for it was while all the other young people were dancing, and she sitting, most unwillingly, among the chaperons at the fire, longing for the re-entrance of her elder cousin, on whom all her own hopes of a partner then dependedIt was Fanny’s first ball, though without the preparation or splendour of many a young lady’s first ball, being the thought only of the afternoon, built on the late acquisition of a violin player in the servants’ hall, and the possibility of raising five couple with the help of MrsGrant and a new intimate friend of MrBertram’s just arrived on a visitIt had, however, been a very happy one to Fanny through four dances, and she was quite grieved to be losing even a quarter of an h | | Monday, December 6th, 2010 | | 3:02 am |

ON THE same afternoon that Major Dalleson was mounting his attack, the platoon continued to climb Mount AnakaIn the awful heat of the middle slopes they bogged downEach time they passed through a draw or hollow the air seemed to be refracted from the blazing rocks, and after a time their cheek muscles ached from continual squintingIt was a minor pain and should have been lost in the muscle cramps of their thighs, the sullen vicious aching of their backs, but it became the greatest torment of the marchThe bright light lanced like splinters into the tender flesh of their eyeballs, danced about the base of their brains in reddened choleric circlesThey lost all account of the distance they had covered; everything beneath them had blurred, and the individual torments of each kind of terrain were forgottenThey no longer cared if the next hundred yards was a barren rock slope or a patch of brush and forestEach had its own painful disadvantagesThey wavered like a file of drunks, plodded along with their heads bent down, their arms slapping spasmodically at their sidesAll their equipment had become leaden, and a variety of sores had farrowed on every bony knob of their bodiesTheir shoulders were blistered from the pack bands, their waists were bruised from the jouncing of their cartridge belts, and their rifles clanked abrasively against their sides, raising blisters on their hipsTheir shirts had long washed lines of white where the perspiration had dried They moved numbly, straggling upward from rock to rock, panting and sobbing with exhaustionAgainst his will Croft was forced to give them a break every few minutes; they rested now for as long a period as they marched, lying dumbly on their backs, their arms and legs spread-eagledLike the litter-bearers, they had forgotten everything; they did not think of themselves as individual men any longerThey were merely envelopes of sufferingThey had forgotten about the patrol, about the war, their past, they had even forgotten the earth they had just climbedThe men around them were merely vague irritating obstacles into which they blunderedThe hot glaring sky and the burning rock were far more intimateTheir minds scurried about inside their bodies like rodents in a maze, concentrating fruitlessly on first the quivering of an overworked limb and then on the smarting of a sore, became buried for many minutes in the agony of drawing another bre | | Saturday, December 4th, 2010 | | 2:58 am |
