And another thought...

Tye and I (Phyllis) were toying with the idea of investing in one potential "Big One" as a joint group venture. I also spoke briefly about it with Ray. I don't know how possible this is, but I would like to see about investing in the company Katy and I currently work for. They are not currently public yet, and the potential for growth on our inital investment is sky high.

I would like to talk about that at next meeting, segueing into "active investing".

Also, since this July month is a period in which many people are going to be out and about all over the place. The original quartet (Tye, Ray, Katy, Phyllis) have concluded that we should not host a monthly meeting for July, but instead, check in via blog space, and record our thoughts, and what we've individually done for "homework" and "field work".

I have been reading this one book in particular "In Spite of the Gods". It's written by a British national, who is married to an Indian spouse, and they currently reside in India. The author talks about paradox of India's "great leap forward", and the mysticism that seems to have been forced upon India by the West. Also, it delves into great detail about the corrupted politics of India (especially the northern region), and how it played a part in how India is today. I just started reading it, but I am already enthralled with it. When I continue on with it, I will definitely update my thoughts on it!
