If they don’t make it any more, it is a rare commodity.

June 24, 2010 6 Comments

You know those collector’s edition of this or that, plates or paintings, antique phonographs and one of a kind nick-knacks? Sure you do. You know the price on those items that are not made any more is often much higher than the mass produced products of today.

There are really only two things in this world that are completely pure in the true VALUE of that thinking. No, it’s not an Elvis memorabilia or an 1813 Singer Sewing machine. The two true ‘it’ items that are not made any more are: Land and Family.

Land

The old adage is that God’s just not making any more of it! I’m pretty sure that’s true. So a little piece of land is a rare commodity. Not just having land itself, but utilizing it and being a good steward of it. That too tree_hayis rare.

 

 

 

Family: Well, you’ve got one. It may grow and change, but you can’t get a NEW replacement one like you can upgrade a cell phone. So my suggestion is to treat this as one of the rarest commodities you may have. Not only are your family members one of a kind, but they (as you) are finite and only last for one generation at a time.
