description: Creativity & Favorites | This site is solely intended to share my learning in business and engaged philanthropy with like-minded people. Ideally, I will continue to build up my audience through readership and speaking gigs but since I've been writing and speaking for 30 years now, my real intention is just to share my journey. (40)

 Money may be the root of all evil, but only if you are not honest about what it means to you.

**Editor’s note:*** If you like history, spiced up by great writing, this is a can’t miss. It reads like a novel and yet I learned very interesting detail about man’s early quest to fly and also about a very interesting family. I was also a bit stunned to learn about the business and financial outcomes of their ventures.*

***Editor’s note**:  This mind blowing work, subtitled “A Brief History of Tomorrow”, gets a bit lost for me because of its ambition to forecast a few hundred years forward.  Still there is so much to think about because of this brilliant author’s attempt to put some future form on emerging bio and data science.  Essentially he sees the combination of things like artificial intelligence, the “internet of everything” and DNA manipulations putting Homo Sapiens in a position to become Homo Deus (gods).  Man, having mostly overcome famine, plague and violence (good data on the truth of that is early in the book) has ever increasing bandwidth and so must inevitably come up with the “next big thing”.*
