John ArmstrongTime shakes the stable tyranny of thrones, And tottering empires rush by their own weight.
John ArmstrongOneโs relationship with money is lifelong, it colors oneโs sense of identity, it shapes oneโs attitude to other people, it connects and splits generations; money is the arena in which greed and generosity are played out, in which wisdom is exercised and folly committed. Freedom, desire, power, status, work, possession: these huge ideas that rule life are enacted, almost always, in and around money.
