Quotes by Marc Singer
Marc Singer's insights on:

I feel that one of the most important lessons that can be learned is that what we “see” may be different than what is actually in front of us.

I’ll give you an example. Henry, the old black guy who cooks the corn bread, he worked on the railroads for about 20 years so he knows how to lay and build track.

Learn the lessons of history. Don’t let how you feel about your tenure at your organization drive you to make poor investment decisions that could potentially derail a successful retirement.

We didn’t have a drill so he would burn the holes through the wood with a metal rod that he heated up in a fire. Can you imagine an ordinary crew doing that?

I believe that the biggest mistake that most people make when it comes to their retirement is they do not plan for it. They take the same route as Alice in the story from "Alice in Wonderland," in which the cat tells Alice that surely she will get somewhere as long as she walks long enough. It may not be exactly where you wanted to get to, but you certainly get somewhere.

I'd see people in the middle of winter sleeping under a blanket in the snow, ... I'd be looking at them from my window and I would think, 'What's going through that person's mind?'
