What are you reading now?
I just finished reading Suze Ormans 9 Steps to Financial Freedom and now I'm plowing through The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. I know I'm probably the last person on earth to read that book but I'm glad I am. Interestingly enough it's teachings reflect what, IMO, is the same mind set I possess without effort during a shroom trip.
What's the rest of YaHooka currently reading?

suze orman says, 'happiness is directly tied to money.'

I think what she really means is happiness is tied to earning, understanding and valuing money.

thats just as stupid.
whats of value of money?
earning money, understanding money, and valuing money does not lead to happiness nor are those tied to happiness.

earning money=sense of accomplishment for some people which can make them happy
understanding and valuing money=feeling of responsibility which makes many people feel good about themselves and happy

"Haunted" by Chuck Palahniuk. Just finished reading "Choke" by him which is my fave book so far. MUCH better than "Fight Club."
