Interesting little book “ReWealth”

Book: ReWealthby Storm Cunningham (Author)
Published by McGraw-Hill

Last weekend picked it from library. Contains very good information & what it takes to attain real sustainability.
I am not done but very interesting tales & full of quality quotes.
If I find more time, I will post more complete review here.

Brief Kiva two years update.

I discovered Kiva in April 2007 via a PBS, tpt, Frontline program. Every month I am contributing little bit of my $ for good cause. To date, my Kiva loan portfolio contains over 225 loans, including 100 loans that have been repaid completely and then re-loaned & I reached my little goal of loaning 100 entrepreneurs always.
