Not all signs on churches are preachy. Well, not a direct warning, at least. I thought this one was clever, humorous, and both a modern and ancient warning.

A Day to Enjoy
Sit back. Relax. And enjoy…a good book. It’s National Read a Book Day. Read something funny, or mind-blowing, or mind-stretching, or even trashy. Read some biography or poetry. Just read.
You may not have time to browse the library down the street from you, so here’s an idea: e-books. Sites like Amazon, Apple, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, and Kobo have a ton of e-books to choose from. Or you can read one of my six FREE e-books. Get descriptions and locations for a FREE download by going to http://www.jackieodonnell.net/book-previews. The easiest place to download them is Smashwords.com.
Enjoy!

Our Kids are Sinking Financially
Young adults have lost TWO-THIRDS OF THEIR NET WORTH since 1984.
21- to 35-year-olds: Your median net worth has dropped 68% since 1984. It’s now less than $4,000.
That $4,000 has to pay for student loans that average $27,200 [and are skyrocketing]. Or, if you’re still in school, for $12,700 in credit card debt.
With an unemployment rate for 16- to 24-year-olds of almost 50%, two out of every five recent college graduates are living with their parents. But your favorite company may be hiring. Apple, which makes a profit of $420,000 per employee, can pay you about $12 per hour.
