Can You Prepare For A Loved Ones Death? | Taking Supplements & Financial Turmoil
About this episode
Best to think about death because in the end we're all just mere mortals.
In Episode #377 of 'Meanderings' Juan and I discuss: using stoic principles to prepare for death, all the time Juan has spent on health and fitness recently, abstract math required to self diagnose elbow problems, the CrossFit masters competition, bank bailouts and why it's nice to have an independent currency that can't be manipulated.
As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!
