"To be good is blending science and art. It’s hard data and soft data. Left brain, right brain."

Quotes to ponder:
"If ever in your life you get the urge to do something risky, exciting, different or adventurous, chances are you will not because you won’t have the balls to do it."
"A mortgage is like a chainsaw. It's a powerful but slightly scary tool to be used carefully for a short period of time in a domestic situation. If you get it wrong, it might lop off a limb or two."
"There is an optimal level of mortgage fear. A little edge of unease can be helpful as motivation to get out of the hole as quickly as possible. Too much fear, however, can paralyze and persistent debt worries will eat away at you."
