Timeless Articles from the Archives #36

It's been over four years since I started My Wealth Builder. As I think about topics to write , I often remember, "I've written about that before," and decide to find a new topic. However, since many principles of personal finance are timeless, I want to include them in a recent post on My Wealth Builder. Therefore, I have started a series called "Timeless Articles from the Archives" which highlights posts from the same week in 2007-2010.

A Gift of Opportunity  - When I was a child, our family didn't have much. However, I now know I received something that was much more valuable: opportunity.

Still Learning - A great benefit of early retirement is having the opportunity to learn about professions and businesses through part time work.
To me,the content of these posts are still relevant today and worth reading again.
