That explains it

I have always wondered why the gene or talent for making money bypassed my family and me (as deserving as we are) yet took root and grew in others. It has been one of life's great mysteries until I read an article that explained it. It was one of those aha moments. Or at least a ha! moment as though the laugh was on me! It's the math, Dummy. I may have a vestigial remnant of an aptitude for math but never seriously thought about developing it further than being able to quickly discern the price per item on a grocery store shelf. But certainly it makes sense. It is all about abstractly comprehending how numbers work for us, whether or not there are dollar signs in front of them. Darn that right brain family curse!
