【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Self-Destruction The rise, fall, and redemption of U.S. Senator Daniel B. Brewster【電子書籍】[ John W. Frece ]

＜p＞Hollywood-handsome Daniel B. Brewster had it all: inherited wealth, stellar education, combat Marine, prestigious horse farm, gorgeous and talented wife, and two young sons -- even a seat in the United States Senate. He was called "the Golden Boy of Maryland Politics." In 1964, as a stand-in for Lyndon Johnson in Maryland's Democratic Presidential Primary, Brewster defeated the segregationist George C. Wallace, a victory that was credited with clearing the way for congressional passage of the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964. But then, debilitated by alcoholism, Brewster self-destructed. He lost it all -- a breathtaking descent into divorce, electoral defeat, a bribery scandal, financial collapse, and personal shame. As a 20-year-old Marine lieutenant on Okinawa, Brewster fought in some the most savage combat of World War II. During the three-month siege, he was wounded seven times, including by one bullet that tore through his helmet. He was later decorated for valor. He returned from war bursting with ambition. He earned his law degree and quickly rose in politics: state legislature, Congress, and the Senate. He won his first 12 elections, almost always as the leading vote-getter. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer both got their start in Brewster's Senate office. He became friends with Presidents Kennedy and Johnson. But Brewster's long marriage to Carol de Havenon collapsed after he reunited with Anne Bullitt, the ambassador's daughter who had jilted him 24 years before. Not long after their marriage, however, Brewster's drinking and other political missteps led to his 1968 election loss to Republican Charles McC. Mathias, Jr., a lifelong friend. After fleeing to Ireland, Brewster was hospitalized for alcoholism, only to learn that a once loyal aide had accused him of accepting bribes. It was rock bottom. But Dan Brewster had a third act. He survived his six-year legal ordeal, quit drinking, and married Judy Aarsand, whom he had met in rehab. He became a doting father to their three children. Gradually, he reclaimed his dignity, helped other recovering alcoholics, joined hospital boards, and quietly found equilibrium and happiness in a life filled with enormous highs and lows.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Yes, the holy class of Japan is descended from the Lost Tribes of Israel; the first known king of Japan was called Osee and came to the throne in 730 B.C., identifying him with Hoshea, the last king of Israel, who died in 722 B.C. Or so claims Nicholas McLeod in his 1878 book "Epitome of the Ancient History of Japan."＜/p＞ ＜p＞A Scot who started his career in the herring industry before he ended up in Japan as a missionary, Nicholas McLeod (1868?1889) was a native of the Isle of Skye, Scotland, who was known for his theory that the Japanese people descended from the Lost Tribes of Israel. McLeod also provides evidence that "descendants of a Negro race" could be found in remote regions of Japan.＜/p＞ ＜p＞McLeod's 1878 book contain extensive comparisons of the religious rituals of Judaism and Shintoism as evidence of the links between ancient Israel and Japan.＜/p＞ ＜p＞According to Zvi Ben-Dor Benite, MacLeod had been a missionary who spent decades in Japan and Korea "searching for the true Israelites". The following passage is an example from the book in which McLeod draws correlations between his observations on Japan and the fulfillment of biblical prophecy:＜/p＞ ＜p＞"The civilized race of the Aa. Inus, the Tokugawa and the Machi No Hito of the large towns, by dwelling in the tent or tabernacle shaped houses first erected by Jin Mu Tenno, have fulfilled Noah's prophecy regarding Japhet, 'He shall dwell in the tents of Shem.'"＜/p＞ ＜p＞Regarding dark-skinned Japanese, McLeod writes:＜/p＞ ＜p＞"In my travels I came across the remnants of a Black Race, nearly all of them had the woolly head and features of the Negro... Negro faces are to be seen scattered up and down the Empire; they have the complexion of a Mulatto. ...The Japanese called them Black Devils."＜/p＞ ＜p＞McLeod's remarkable book is still cited to the present day by proponents of the Japanese Jewish ancestry theory.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Men on the Screen Re-visions of Masculinity in Spanish Cinema (1939-2019)【電子書籍】[ Jose Armengol ]

＜p＞Cinema, whether it is understood as entertainment, business, criticism, or art, is always a reflection of the society in which it is born. ＜em＞Men on the Screen＜/em＞ is a review of masculinity in cinema made in Spain by Spanish directors from 1939 to the present. The objective of this volume is, then, to observe the different types of masculinities, whose classification gives rise to a chronology that goes from the man who embodies the dream dreamt by the dictator Franco to the modern man, who is lost in his labyrinth, while also examining the repressed men, those men who have strayed and who live in the city, the rascals and braggarts, those who fight every day just to survive, the petty criminals, those men who divest themselves of the rancid national-Catholicism in order to be themselves, those who are caring, those who harass and kill their prey, the heroes, those who seduce women with their gab, corrupt politicians, those who sell their bodies, grandparents, violent and chauvinistic men, those who live in anguish for the passage of time, and even those immured by repressing and hypocritical morality. All of the masculine categories delineated above indicate that cinema is a reflection of the great changes experienced by Spanish society during these years. During this long period, Spain has gone from being a poor, isolated, dark, sad, politically and religiously depressed country to becoming a dynamic, modern country, one of the great countries of the West. And these transformations, these men, who are diverse, who are in conflict at times, and who are depressed, hopeful, hungry, consumerist, and dreamersーthey are what cinema gathers. What follows next is a catalog of men who have wandered and roamed the Spanish screens.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Camel Hunt: A Narrative of Personal Adventure【電子書籍】[ Joseph Warren Fabens ]

＜p＞＜strong＞"A lively stirring and eminently interesting narrative." -＜em＞Knickerbocker＜/em＞＜br /＞ "It is full of wit, pathos, and character painting such as is rarely to be met with." -＜em＞American Review＜/em＞＜br /＞ "A work which will interest every lover of adventure." -＜em＞Boston Transcript＜/em＞＜br /＞ "A most entertaining narrative that has proved quite a hit." -＜em＞Home Journal＜/em＞＜br /＞ "It is spirited well written and entertaining. We commend the work to our readers as a novel book of travels and adventure." -＜em＞Boston Journal＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Trusting that authors of 19th century travel adventure were bound by the laws of verity, even when the truth disclosed is stranger than fiction, we read their pages with confidence. In those times of far wandering and wild adventure, we expect to be instructed and amazed by the reports of these travellers. Joseph Fabens has done his part in his 1853 book "Camel Hunt" by recording his experiences on sea and land in California and at Mogadore in the hunt for camels.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As disclosed in the "Camel Hunt," three Yankees, a Major Wallack, a certain Tom Eddington, and the author, with their wives, sail in a clipper brig to the coast of Africa in search of camels to be used in assisting the goldhunters in their migration across the American continent to the mines of California.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Fabens provides a very sprightly narrative of the voyage to Mogadore for the purchase of camels to be used in traversing the wilds and wastes of our western territory. The closing chapter, which shows us the camels and their Moorish drivers safely landed at Chagres, and disposed before their tents, a little way out of the city, is very graphic, and sheds strange light on a passage from the Merchant of Venice.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In describing a fleeting run-in with a desert nomad while in North Africa, Fabens writes:＜/p＞ ＜p＞"A few days after, on the desert at night, when we were encamped far from human habitation, I heard a sound which impressed me similarly. A solitary Arab passed our tent, urging his swift hierie to the utmost, and as he rushed by and disappeared in the trackless waste, he sent forth a howl that seemed to come from the very depths of a lost spirit. All the next day his image haunted me, hurrying purposeless and despairingly over the vast nothingness of the desert; and when darkness covered the earth, finding no confidant of his remorseful outbreaks but the night wind."＜/p＞ ＜p＞In his conclusion Fabens writes of the future of the camel in the American West, noting "we have taken the first step, we have laid the corner-stone in a new and heretofore untried business. All that we have proposed will be done, and much more ー not by our little band of pioneers, but by many united in the same cause. The camel will yet be domesticated and bred in our western states and territories, as the ox, the mule and the horse now are, and will doubtless do more towards extending the outskirts of our civilization than all other appliances to boot."＜/p＞ ＜p＞About the author:＜br /＞ Joseph Warren Fabens (1821-1875) was an author and commercial agent, consul at Cayenne and Nicaragua, as well as filibuster in Central America in 1855 and farmer in Santo Domingo in 1859.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Other works by the author include:＜br /＞ ?

The American Indians live in tribes;＜br /＞ ? They have a tradition prevailing universally, that they came into that country at the Northwest corner;＜br /＞ ? They acknowledge One God, the Great Spirit, who created all things seen and unseenーthe name by which this being is known to them is ale, the old Hebrew name of God; he is also called yehovah, sometimes yah, and also abba;＜br /＞ ? They are distinctly heard to sing with their religious dances, halleluyah or praise to yah;＜br /＞ ? They keep annual feasts which resemble those of the Mosaic ritual;＜br /＞ ? There is a sort of jubilee kept by some of them;＜br /＞ ? They have cities of refuge;＜br /＞ ? In their temples is a holy place into which none may enter but the priest;＜br /＞ ? The priests garb is a humble imitation of the High Priest's robes, with a breast plate and other ornaments;＜br /＞ ? They have a succession of priests, who are inducted into office by purification and anointing;＜br /＞ ? They had once a holy book, which while they kept, things went well with them; they lost it, and in consequence of the loss fell under the displeasure of the Great Spirit; but they believe they shall one day regain it;＜br /＞ ? They are looking for and expecting someone to come and teach them the right way.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In his concluding chapter, Worsley notes that "in the book of Esdras their journey can be traced into a land where no man dwelt. And although throughout the space of 2,500 years they have not been inquired after, they are not less in being on this account. In that direction which the prophetic historian points out, a way of a year and a half's journey, is a passage to a wide land, wherein they might wander undisturbed from sea to sea. In that land an immense population has been discovered, in their usages and customs unlike any of the tribes and nations existing in Europe or Asia, with peculiar and striking features, which render them remarkable."＜/p＞ ＜p＞About the author:＜/p＞ ＜p＞Israel Worsley (1768ー1836) was an English Unitarian minister. Other works authored by Worsley included:＜/p＞ ＜p＞? Account of the State of France . . . and the Treatment of the English, 1806.＜br /＞ ? Memoir of Jacob Brettell, Lincoln, 1810.＜br /＞ ?

＜p＞What if Jeshua (Jesus) appeared in your living room? In July 1987 He first appeared to Jayem in a field of Light, coming closer and closer "...until his eyes were all I could see. And then his eyes seemed to pour right through me and I felt like I was dissolving into them, into those incredibly peaceful eyes." Over a period of nearly two years Jeshua appeared many times and gave ‘dictation’, which Jayem scribbled down as fast as he could. Eventually He asked Jayem to publish it as 'The Jeshua Letters' and this book emerged. It is the start of an astounding body of work given by Jeshua (called The Way of Mastery) which restore the essential truths of His original teachings, previously ‘lost in translation’ in their passage from Aramaic to English. Jeshua’s ‘Letters’ are simple, profound and practical. His voice is certain but always gentle; inviting, never demanding.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】When Paris Was Her Lover【電子書籍】[ Heidi Harrison ]

＜p＞＜em＞When Paris Was Her Lover＜/em＞ juxtaposes the lives of two women from two continents. In the Prologue we meet Marlene. It is the year 2000. She is ensconced under the Eiffel Tower, reminiscent and dreamy as she recalls that once upon a time, Paris was her lover. We then move backward to the year 1985. We are in San Francisco, where she lives and works as a preschool teacher. She is lost and friendless. On a whim, she decides to go to Paris. Once she gets there, she becomes enamored not only of the city but also of a woman she meets at a concert she attends at Versailles. She is shy, does not speak a word of French, and when the opportunity arises to communicate with Th?r?se, she walks away sheepishly as Th?r?se, herself smitten by Marlene, slips into another car on the train, wishing for the dream that did not happen that night. After this missed opportunity, each woman forges a path toward another destiny. Marlene adopts a Romanian girl who is the product of the brutal era of the Ceausescu dictatorship. Th?r?se searches for looted violins and other stringed instruments that were originally owned by Jewish individuals who perished in the gas chambers. While Marlene and Th?r?se follow these very divergent paths in their lives, there is an undercurrent of an undying passion between these two women. Often in discreet moments, each one brings to light the memory of the other, and in doing so, they not only create a parallel process but also repetitively ignite their incessant longings for the other. An ever-present theme of survival punctuates each section of this work. While on the outside this piece of fiction appears to be seamless, a tapestry woven with beauty and humor and a magical sense of wonder, underneath there is the reminder of the horrors of war and the ramifications therein. The music that resonates with each passage of the book lends itself to a transcendence from the pathos of the human existence to that of the sublime, survival in its quintessential realm.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Once she gets there, she becomes enamored not only of the city but also of a woman she meets at a concert she attends at Versailles. She is shy, does not speak a word of French, and when the opportunity arises to communicate with Th?r?se, she walks away sheepishly as Th?r?se, herself smitten by Marlene, slips into another car on the train, wishing for the dream that did not happen that night. After this missed opportunity, each woman forges a path toward another destiny. Marlene adopts a Romanian girl who is the product of the brutal era of the Ceausescu dictatorship. Th?r?se searches for looted violins and other stringed instruments that were originally owned by Jewish individuals who perished in the gas chambers. While Marlene and Th?r?se follow these very divergent paths in their lives, there is an undercurrent of an undying passion between these two women. Often in discreet moments, each one brings to light the memory of the other, and in doing so, they not only create a parallel process but also repetitively ignite their incessant longings for the other. An ever-present theme of survival punctuates each section of this work. While on the outside this piece of fiction appears to be seamless, a tapestry woven with beauty and humor and a magical sense of wonder, underneath there is the reminder of the horrors of war and the ramifications therein. The music that resonates with each passage of the book lends itself to a transcendence from the pathos of the human existence to that of the sublime, survival in its quintessential realm.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Cruise Through History Itinerary 07 - Ports of the Pacific Coast of North America with Hawaii【電子書籍】[ Sherry Hutt ]

＜p＞Begin in Nicaragua with the history of a place made tenuous in the shadow of volcanoes and powerful nations. Among a story of indigenous peoples of Central America, Spanish conquistadors, American industrialists, and politicians, are pirates and a heroic American National Baseball League right fielder. Within a litany of dozens of Nicaraguan presidents since 1821, there are those who deserve mention for valiant efforts to lead Nicaragua into democracy, among whom is the first female head of state in the western hemisphere. A rich Castilian culture, amid continual political strife, produced a cadre of Nicaraguan poets. Rub?n Dar?o is revered in the Poets' Corner of the Leon Cathedral, where he is joined by recipients of the Dar?o Prize in Poetry. Poets of Leon are also daring revolutionaries, priests, and leaders of the modern nation.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Visit colonial hill towns of Mexico, where Aztec culture fled Spanish devastation of Mexico City. Search for the Goddess Woman of the Aztecs from Puerto Vallarta to Izapa, Manzanillo, Zihautenejo, and Puerto Chiapas. Go beyond beach resorts for Colima, Comala, and Chiapas in Mexico, and Comalapa in Guatemala. Among coastal cities Acapulco adds singular flair as the destination port of Manila Galleons, bringing spices of the Philippines to Mexico, enabling Mexican cuisine as we know it today.＜/p＞ ＜p＞California was the domain of Native Americans, facing Spanish arrivals seeking gold and plantation agriculture. The story of slavery of Native Americans is preserved in California Missions, from San Diego to San Francisco. Mission architecture is the legacy seen in Art and Architecture of Southern California. Spain negotiated the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo with the young United States, a document little understood and contested today. San Francisco has a history of singular personalities from inception.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Enjoy Tea and Gardens in Victoria, in far west Canada. Architects of the palaces and hotels have stories as colorful as their buildings are fanciful. Built on the grounds of First Peoples, Vancouver preserves the story of its first residents as it adds the story of Chinese in North America.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Native People of Alaska faced Russian settlers, whalers, and loggers making a home in gorgeous, yet unforgiving terrain. Having lost control of their land, Native Alaskan tribes and corporations are vibrant players in the modern economy, while preserving art and culture. The story of the Alaska purchase is told in Sitka, where intrigue and folly collided in the aspirations of Russian and American dreams for territory. Alaska quickly became the domain of Characters to Match the Outsized Environment. Fur warriors fought early battles and whalers brought the American Civil War to Alaska. Fish canning corporations from the lower forty-eight fought Alaska statehood, while they enslaved new generations of Native Alaskans. Finally, poets came to Alaska painting and writing of the wilderness.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Stories of Hawaii begin with Being Native Hawaiian and move to a Royal History of Hawaii. Until the monarchy was usurped, its assets converted to private use of sugar magnates, Native Hawaiians marginalized, and the last monarch imprisoned, Hawaii was an independent monarchy recognized by the US. The Little History of Honolulu is seen in city streets and monuments, no visit to Honolulu is complete without a visit to Waikiki Beach of the first king of unified Hawaii, King Kamehameha, and now home to A Vision in Pink: Royal Hawaiian Hotel. If walls of the hotel could talk, they would tell of surfers, hula parties, and famous guests.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This Itinerary ends with two tales for days at sea. Explore the northern Pacific Ocean with Bering, Cook, and Vancouver. Search for a Northeast Passage with English and Russian hopefuls, until success was achieved by a Swedish-Finnish-Russian hero.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】In Search of Lost Time: Swann's Way A Graphic Novel【電子書籍】[ Marcel Proust ]

＜p＞With its sweeping digressions into the past and reflections on the nature of memory, Proust’s oceanic novel ＜em＞In Search of Lost Time＜/em＞ looms over twentieth-century literature as one of the greatest, yet most endlessly challenging, literary experiences. Influencing writers like Virginia Woolf and James Joyce, and even anticipating Albert Einstein in its philosophical explorations of space and time, ＜em＞In Search of Lost Time＜/em＞ is a monumental achievement and reading it is a rite of passage for any serious lover of literature.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Now, in what renowned translator Arthur Goldhammer says might be “likened to a piano reduction of an orchestral score,” the French illustrator St?phane Heuet re-presents Proust in graphic form for anyone who has always dreamed of reading him but was put off by the sheer magnitude of the undertaking. This ＜em＞New York Times＜/em＞ best-selling graphic adaptation reveals the fundamental architecture of Proust’s work while displaying a remarkable fidelity to his language as well as the novel’s themes of time, art, and the elusiveness of memory. As Goldhammer writes in his introduction, “The reader new to Proust must attend closely, even in this compressed rendering, to the novel’s circling rhythms and abrupt cross-cuts between different places and times. But this necessary attentiveness is abetted and facilitated by the compactness of the graphic format.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this first volume, ＜em＞Swann’s Way＜/em＞, the narrator Marcel, an aspiring writer, recalls his childhood whenーin a now-immortal moment in literatureーthe taste of a madeleine cake dipped in tea unleashes a torrent of memories about his family’s country home in the town of Combray. Here, Heuet and Goldhammer use Proust’s own famously rich and labyrinthine sentences and discerning observations to render Combray like never before. From the water lilies of the Vivonne to the steeple and stained glass of the town church, Proust’s language provides the blueprint for Heuet’s illustrations. Heuet and Goldhammer also capture Proust’s humor, wit, and sometimes scathing portrayals of Combray’s many memorable inhabitants, like the lovelorn Charles Swann and the object of his affection and torment, Odette de Cr?cy; Swann’s daughter, Gilberte; local aristocrat the Duchesse de Guermantes; the narrator’s uncle Adolphe; and the hypochondriac Aunt L?onie.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Including a Proust family tree, a glossary of terms, and a map of Paris, this graphic adaptation is a surprising and useful companion piece to Proust’s masterpiece for both the initiated and those seeking an introduction.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Passive Income Ideas in the 21st Century【電子書籍】[ Ken Horton ]

＜p＞＜strong＞About the book＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞What comes to your mind when you hear about making money while asleep? Why is making money with less effort essential? The answer is relatively simple; the relationship between money and time. Time is the most valuable asset. There are only 24 hours in a day. Time is the most incredible balance because no one can have more of it. It can never be re-spent or recreated. It exists once; then it's gone. And that's precisely why passive income is so important ー because time has a greater value than money.＜br /＞ Passive income allows businesses to create their wealth and enhance cash flow, increasing financial security and stability. As a result, passive income boosts lowermost line profits, saves time, and grows a business's reach. For some entrepreneurs, passive income allows for place independence, as in the case of digital nomads. Unlike money, which can be saved, spent, earned, sponsored, wasted, and lost, we can't cover minutes on a clock. We can't expect profits in seconds or hours in the bank or finance the time we didn't use on something else. Believing that most of the free world requires them to work for a living, wasting much of the time they do have, this precious commodity needs to be prioritized.＜br /＞ This book explains how money and time can be valuable assets for each of us. The ideas mentioned in this book are less time-consuming and will help you yield more profit with fewer efforts in your business.＜br /＞ The fact that the rich get richer makes passive income one of the crucial elements of making money. It's how you separate your capacity to profit from the restricted time you have in a day. With passive income, you bring in money while you sleep. You likewise bring in money while you're alert. It's programmed and continues to come in. While passive income probably won't be the solution to your close issues as a whole, it is the pathway to progress and unquestionably the foundation for happiness and wealth. Whenever you are not worried about bringing in less money to take care of the bills and you're done living from pay-to-play, mental clarity and emotional therapy set in. You become allowed to invest your energy in doing things you care about. You can invest more energy with your family, focus on working on your health, have the opportunity to get away from a task you disdain or seek after a creative passion; that you, in any case, would consign to a couple of hours of your leisure time toward the end of the week.＜br /＞ With passive income streams, you can continuously earn without investing energy. There will be a bit forthright investment of time to set up the passive income stream; whether that is making something, creating a record, or working with a set to get you set up with your investment at the same time, from there on, it's anything but a financial resource that you want to make due. These kinds of investments are debt-or equity-organized, and that implies you make a capital investment just a single time to get excess income installments. Likewise, passive income streams frequently have a lower cost to passage, contingent upon the kind of resource. Some come with a lower rate of return in trade for less volatility, while others might offer a more significant profit yet at a somewhat higher measure of risk.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book has in-depth discussed and covered all the passive income ideas that include one-time investments and no investment at all. Investing offers the most considerable possibilities for generating passive income, but it might demand considerable sums of money to yield meaningful returns. However, the best part is that both of these options allow you to sit back and enjoy the financial rewards for years to come.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞About the Author＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Ken Horton is a Workforce Development Professional in the sunshine state of California. He enjoys writing and spends time daily helping others achieve their professional and personal goals while motiving them to bring out the best in themselves. In his free time, taking landscape photos, helping people design their logos, producing music, hiking in nature are Mr. Horton’s pastimes.
