Long ago I had an uncle who told me to

“never, or rarely follow the herd” his exact words.

I applied this rule with the vaccine. When they gave the drug companies immunity, it confirmed my faith in my decision.

He also told me to never repair something that costs more than 40% of the cost of a new one. I use this rule in my business all the time. It ensures you end up with the latest better technology etc, most of the time.

Another rule from Uncle Bob:

When buying a car or high priced luxury, offer 10-20 and finally 30% more over the base model price, for the top of the line model and you will often get the top of the line model for less than sticker. * if that fails offer to buy 2 for the 20% increase and see what happens.

I’ve done this several times.

Only once did I end up buying 2 cars …….but the discounts worked out well….

So far I’m glad I didn’t take the vaccine.
