    Listening to this audiobook. An interesting look at how countries with desirable resources get screwed over by the US through threats of death to honest leaders, rigged elections, and pushing unnecessary debt to said countries.

    Sounds like a good million dollar gig if you can numb your conscience. B02E4359-E74B-4D06-9543-E3F05D370156.png

    Last 4 books I've read:
    • Tom Clancy's Duty and Honour by Grant Blackwood
    • Tom Clancy's Point of Contact by Mike Maden
    • The Black Elfstone: Book One of the Fall of Shannara by Terry Brooks
    • Star Wars: Thrawn by Timothy Zahn
    My non-fiction reading tends to be more tactical and targeted (I'll read what I need when I need it, rather than just reading for the sake of it), whereas I use fiction reading for relaxing the mind before sleep - or on plane trips and such.

    The last 3 chapters are worth the price of the book alone.

    Abraham Hicks. Ask and it is given. How to manifest your desires! Author Esther Hicks.

    All about the universal laws. Law of attraction. Law of deliberate creation, law of allowing.

    Awesome book. Changed my life!

    Currently reading 'The Cave', the inside story of the daring Thai cave rescue authored by Liam Cochrane.

    A fascinating book in it's own right, personally more so being an ex cave diver.
