On The Cutting Edge: Gillette Gets An Idea For A Business
| |
| In 1895, Gillette decided it was time to return home. Moving back to Fond du Lac in Wisconsin, he took up work as a salesman for the Crown Cork & Seal Co.

But Is the Pope a CFP
| |
| Peter Baigent's article reminded me of a Crown Life manager I knew decades ago. Pierre, in telling me about his trip to Rome, and audience with the Pope, said, "You know, he'd make a good insurance agent because he divides the population of the world into just two categories." |

Its Walgreen's Drug Stores.
Walgreen's? You gotta be kidding me! The drugstore chain? Yep, its true. How they did it is even cooler than that fact that they did it in the first place.

The Roles And Responsibilities Of The Canada National Bank
| |
| Canada National Bank is the central bank of Canada. Although, it is important to know that it is not a government department. It is rather a crown corporation owned by the government. Though its activities are almost independent, its earnings go to the federal treasury and shares are directly held by the finance ministry. Besides that, it is not the federal public service agency but the bank itself that regulates the employees of this bank. It was after the introduction of the 1934 Bank of Canada Act that gave this bank the monopoly on the issuance of banknotes. The value of the Canadian dollar depends upon the actual amount of money created by this bank. Its main task is to promote the financial and economic well being of Canada. |

I sometime think of it as the "Groundhog Day Syndrome" because one day seems pretty much like the repeat of the previous days. I find many of my clients who are adrift in their life are much like a cork drifting around in the water, being buffeted in one direction or another by the "currents of circumstances." |
