I never heard of the Templeton Foundation until mentioned in the post. Interesting, when you consider the two of the works of Paul Davies are The Mind of God and God and The New Physics.

In one sense I am rich but I am not wealthy and will never be wealthy. The main reason is that I do not live in the "reality today" sector of life enough to come up with a gimmick for getting rich that will build wealth repeatedly. If your NOW matches todays reality you can invent ans sell the latest widget.

Damn! I now know why I’m not wealthy.

I am not wealthy because I have no desire to be wealthy and have never made any attempt to be so.

@jlynn37 I tried, but enjoyed computers so much that Instead of investing I became one of America’s highest paid migratory workers. I became a “thousandaire”.
