  1. I am interested in starting or joining a solari circle. I live in the SF bay area, Daly City to be exact. For the last two years have been repeatedly stopped out. Now sitting in mostly cash. Waiting for October or November to get back into market. Have done well in past with commodities, currently looking at cybersecurity.

    1. You might take a look at the cybersecurity motif at motif investing for ideas. Several Solari Reports and old audio seminars on starting a Circle.

  2. Thank you Catherine
    I have ordered the book “The evolution of cooperation”. Will review all other information.

  3. Hi Catherine–

    I was so happy to see you stand up to Greg Hunter/USA Watchdog in the July, 2015, YouTube video. He behaved like an arrogant bully, continually talking over you and trying to shout you down, but you had the facts on your side and didn’t let him intimidate you. Thanks for standing your ground, and for sharing your deep knowledge with us. I am a former stockbroker and current College Professor of finance and economics, but I learn something new from you all the time.

  4. Hi, Catherine,

    I’m not sure if you are aware, but Whitley Strieber’s wife Anne died yesterday. He posted it on Facebook half an hour ago. Thanks.

  6. Catherine/Franklin,
    I had to smile when I heard Franklin say “I’ve found that my picture was always way too small.” I also couldn’t agree more. It brought to mind a memory of reading a statement by Chris and Ellyn Davis about 13 years ago that homeschooling is really not about education at all, but about relationships. With preschoolers and babies, I couldn’t understand what in the world he meant. Now I get it. It is very difficult to try to explain to someone who doesn’t homeschool why homeschooling is not just another method of doing the same thing (getting an education). It is that, absolutely. But it is far richer and deeper in relational ways and in human ways, bringing gifts not only for the child (or children) but also gifts for the siblings and parents.
    It also reminds me of a statement I heard long ago, that the reasons you begin to homeschool in the beginning are often not the same reasons you continue over time. I couldn’t agree more. We may have started to avoid labeling and discouraging a late bloomer. While I continue to believe that is very important, I would say it no longer ranks in the top five reasons we continue to homeschool today, 11 years later. My oldest will begin his final year of homeschooling this month (he’s “graduating” a year early, if there is really ever such a thing as “graduating” from education!), and I do not regret our decision to homeschool for a single second, nor does he.
    For anyone considering the idea of homeschooling… please keep exploring! There are ways to successfully do it, no matter the circumstance, if parents are willing. Rich blessings await! (And, like keeping house, there are a thousand ways to do it, and each family is different in how they do it.)
    It is a privilege to be part of the Solari network!

  7. Dear Catherine
    It gladdened my heart to hear both you and Franklin speaking on small business and living a free and inspired life. What comes to mind is my favorite Gandhi quote, “live as if you were to die tomorrow, learn as if you were to live forever”.

    A resource I found extremely helpful was the community collage system. Mine has a Small Business dept.
