1. We survived hurricane Sandy
2. Obama got re-elected
3. Things are getting better, for some faster for some slower.
4. Because we are in better shape then the rest of the world we are the beneficiary of historically low interest rates, if your borrowing at 3% it really should pay for itself.
5. Lack of corporate job hiring, opportunity and leadership combined with low yields has allowed for a whole generation to explore their dreams with the benefit others capital & expertise.
6. The fact that's its an increasing wired world. American sales has to increasing come from new markets overseas.
7. It's a very good time to identify a problem, get confirmation and try and solve it.

8. It's a time when failure doesn't limit your future opportunity. Thomas Edison said you really don't fail you find what didn't work.
9. Dream bigger, it's a wonderful journey.
Happy Thanksgiving
