Stoic Wisdom Quote

“The secret of staying afloat Jimmie is to create something that people will pay for. I didn’t work at inventions until I saw a market demand for them. I wasn’t interested in making money so much as in being the first to invent something that society needed.” - Thomas Edison

Reflect on this as we embark on another week of bidding and building!
