It doesn't really make sense to talk about anything other than this on this week's episode, yet I am grossly ill-equipped to talk about it in any frame of reference other than investing. So that's what I'm going to do. We can always take lessons from anything horrible that happens around the world, and our power (unfortunately) comes from our money. Getting a handle on your money means that you will have the freedom and flexibility to be able to use that money in a way that helps people.What has been the best financial decision you've ever made?
