Killing Jewish didn't bring them any gain; it only created miseries on others, which was a waste of time, energy and resources on the German side. Deutschs could have used those to fight against enemies. Unless we strictly pursue our profits, we can lose one way or another. Do you know what is the most common trait among all the losers? They waste time – probably, they throw away energy and money, too. While it doesn't mean we should work to ...

While trying to solve a family mystery, Dave Dyer uncovered a massive stock market scandal that had been forgotten by history. His great uncle Clayton Pickard vanished in 1923, and, in the process of researching him, the author found a collection of thousands of original documents and photos from Clayton's employer, the L.

Economic policy based on this consensus has led to the financial crisis of 2008, the "Great Recession" that followed, and the slow subsequent rate of growth.
