The words a voice spoke to Neville's wife as she woke on Sunday 12 April 1953: 'You must stop spending your thoughts, your time and your money; everything in life must be an investment.' To spend is to lay out without return; to invest is to lay out for a purpose, expecting a profit. Every moment one either spends, by consenting to negative states and rumours, or invests, by admitting only what contributes to the fulfilment of one's aim. Because the present advances into the future, today's investment pays tomorrow's dividends.
