A whole generation of Americans will retire in poverty instead of prosperity, because they simply are not preparing for retirement now.

Subsequent to the original Quicken, the whole idea that we, as a consumer products company, could actually make business products, that was a whole revolution in our thinking.

Thirty to 40 years ago, most financial decisions were fairly simple.

Mutual funds were created to make investing easy, so consumers wouldn't have to be burdened with picking individual stocks.

Fifty years ago wealth was stored and transmitted physically through gold bars, stock certificates, bank notes, and coins.

Before 1980, it was basically illegal for U.S. banks to invent new products.

So I think instead of focusing on the competition, focus on the customer.
