Tale of the Tie Tack Simply put, a tie tack is a short pin with an embellished head. Chains or snaps connect the tack to shirts. Three types of tie tacks exist. The tie bar clips a necktie to a shirt's fold. On the other hand, the tie pin connects a necktie directly to a shirt or chain, which slides through a shirt's buttonhole. Lastly, the tie chain includes a strong bar and a chain. The bar is connected to the shirt and the necktie covers it. The chain keeps the tie secure by lying across

Give this some thought and you will see that you make decisions on how to use your time and if you spend time at one task, it will cost you the time to apply to the next task and so on.

The key is to grasp the enormity of this concept in your daily life and just as importantly, how you spend time at work or in business.
You are either unemployed, employed, self employed, a business owner or an investor. And in each case there is an opportunity and an associated cost. Can you determine what the opportunities and costs are?

I got smarter fast but I didn’t have a degree to compete with Doug. So I spent thousands
