Ideas on giving money from Maximum Mustache Overcome your fear of having less money.  After all,  more  is always better – you can always benefit from more security, right?  (this is actually  wrong , but it can be hard to recognize) Figure out  who  is most deserving of your money. It took so much time to earn the money and overcome the fear of giving – the last thing you want is to see it go to waste. Figure out  how  to get that money to the worthwhile recipient. You have to find their webpage, mail a check so the credit card company doesn’t steal 3% of your donation, and ask politely that they don’t put you on their mailing list and hound you for the rest of your life.

Weebew Friends, here we are in the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI); a new world with no soul. So now I want to tell you a story; the story of Weebew? Yes, WeebeWorld is named after my cat, named after a search engine.  What search engine?  That day around 1990 Albert took his idea to a group of venture capitalists at Raymond James and Ass. Clearwater, Fl. Now Albert my friend ( named after Albert Einstein ) I believe is the smartest man in the world, but you will never meet him. Albert's version today we call Google, then was very similar.  But two years ahead of its time. They the venture capitalists said no. Then Weebew became the name another internet project by Albert, then, of course, the name of my cat. WHY CREATE WeebeWorld? So after 13 years as a Toastmaster ( Toastmasters.org, teaches public speaking in over 140 countries. I created www.youthspeakingtoamerica.zohosites.com , and after teaching 18 Toastmaster Youth Leadership Programs, I tra...
