Passive income vs Residual Income
What is Passive Income VS What is Residual Income? Passive income vs residual income; so, what are they and what is the difference? Passive income is money that you earn without having to put in much effort. This can come from investments, such as dividends from stocks or rental income from property. Residual income, on the other hand, is money that you continue to earn even after you've stopped working. This can come from royalties from books or music, or from Passive Income streams.

Salman Rushdie, New Yorker. Top Story - August 2022.
Horrifying news is all the more shocking if you yourself were only just talking and laughing with the victim of a terrible attack. Just a few days before Sir Salman Rushdie was gravely injured onstage in Chautauqua, in western New York, I was chatting with him in the lounge of a private members’ club in lower Manhattan, the city that, for the past 23 years, has been the writer’s adopted home. We were a gathering of three — Salman and I and Jeremy Frommer, Executive Chairman of Creatd, Vocal’s parent company and one of my oldest friends. Turns out that Rushdie and Frommer were members of the same club — when I’d discovered that the two of them hung out there, I felt I had to bring these unique people together.

Dear Diary…
Dear Diary, It’s me again. Lex. Man, this year has been… Really, the last three years have been… WHEW! However, THIS YEAR, it feels like I finally became consistent in creating change in my life, rather than waiting for it to happen. Of course majority of what I have attempted to do, has gone the opposite of my way BUT that’s all a part of trusting the process.

Self Provided Philosophical Fellatio
Am I normal? Am I regular? Am I different? Am I special? How do I fit in? Where do I fit in? Who are my people? Where is my home?

Am I Too Old?
It occurs to me, from time to time, that I may have waited too long after being widowed, to start up a new relationship. I heard that there are advantages to the single life. Sole possession of the remote control being one. I think Sandra Bullock says it in one of her movies. Apologies if I'm wrong.

My Place Our Worlds
Honestly, I can only tell you about my place in my world. The world that I've created. I can tell you in my world, that I am a talented, driven entrepreneur. In my family's world, I am a lazy, irresponsible failure. I can tell you that my place in my world is to help spread love and joy to other worlds. In my neighbor's world, my place is below them in a place where anguish and envy reside. In my world, my place is under the sun, the moon, and the stars, and I am a vessel that transmutes love and joy. In the real world; I am a consumer, another like, and a new follower. My place in my world is to create a beacon of hope for other worlds. My world speaks to me; and divinely guides me so that my place amongst these worlds is no longer mistaken. I’ve come to realize; that my role in these worlds is so minuscule but so detrimental. I am the consumer that supports a small business and gives an Entrepreneur hope. I am the 776th ‘like’ before you so that you have the joy of being number 777, connecting you to the universe. I am your new follower who fawns over your creativity. I am your neighbor, here to help in any way I can. I am your family here to break our generational curse. Most importantly, I am me; here to be the best version of me to inspire you.

Inequalities #4
Imagine you are applying for a new job, how does the interview go, and how much money are you likely to earn? Saturday. A free day to help out poor people. I wonder if there’s a volunteer job to help them out. I ask my chauffeur to take me into town. Driving along the streets, I see a sign. On the front is written in big bold blue letters: ‘Help the poor!! Hiring today*!!’ On the bottom, in smaller letters, it says: ‘*As this is volunteer work, you will not get paid. You will only be provided with money to help the poor.’ I request my chauffeur to pull over on the side of the road. “I’ll call you when I need to be picked up,” I advise him. “ In the meantime, you can have some free time. Use this.” I say as I hand him a wad of cash. “Have fun.” “Uh- Thank you?” He stammers. “You deserve to have some fun after driving me around all week.” I declare. “Bye”. As I get out he waves kindly and smiles. “You have fun too”.

Heroes
As a prior Active-Duty Marine now turned Marine Reservist, I know how it feels to wonder if you’re making a difference in the world and I’m here to tell you that you are. Most people take for granted cashiers, librarians, bus drivers, and all of the other everyday jobs that are vital to our nation’s growth and survival. Nowadays we have way too many songs about Xanax and faces covered with tattoos, and way too many asses on camera with random dudes. Too much Gucci, Louis, Prada, Nike, and other clothing companies trying to brand you. And I know it’s not much and most people will probably scoff it off but even so. This is to those who never hear it but probably need to, because I’ve been there and felt that pain. I just wanted to let you all know that even if it is just me. I want you all to know someone out there is really appreciative of what you do. This is for everyone who is doubting their job and contribution to society. I just wanted to make something to say thanks.

Ridiculous Love Story
There is one funny story that I will never forget when I was a kid. At the time I was still in kindergarten I had an interesting experience and it might even sound ridiculous. I got a declaration of love from my kindergarten friend at the time!.

The Draw To Being A Healer
The Calling To Be A Healer One that feels like the walls are closing in when in a large crowd of people and feels drawn to nature to feel peace within and those who other’s seem to flock to when in need of feeling better. These are the natural healers of the world. The ones who are natural empaths and destined to be a healer in some form. If you feel like you are one who is a natural healer you probably feel the draw to learn at some point along your journey all that is of supernatural and of the non normal ways of society. I have always joked around calling myself, “Not Normal” because I don’t feel like I fit in.
