Fred Rewey’s Blog

I launched a new blog site this week called TheSlowBleed.com

It seems I can’t read the newspaper or turn on the tv without being inundated with seemingly stupid decisions that are slowly destroying our country. I begin to wonder if they are completely random or if we are simply feeling the result of someone’s sinister plan (don’t worry, this is not a blog pertaining to “conspiracy theory” so I don’t really believe the latter).

I do believe however, that in our efforts to be “politically correct”, make sure all our kids are “winners”, and protect everyones “precious ego’s”, we are slowly slipping into a society that will lack basic freedoms and basic free thinkers.

I wrote the book Winning the Cash Flow War (Wiley 2005) as an attempt to educate others on finance (basically everything you should have been taught in school). I spoke in schools and gave away as many books as I could. The funny thing was I wrote it for High School and College students - only to find most adults needed the information as well (you can still find the book in stores and on Amazon). Now, with TheSlowBleed blog and my new forthcoming book, I am going after a much greater problem in today’s society.

I encourage your comments, whether you agree or not. True communication is really our only fight to maintain our individuality for generations to come.

All the best,

Fred

OK, as some of you know I had the chance to fly with a couple colleagues during some filming over the last several years. I have to say, that experience made me want to go up in a plane again.

Of course, I tend not to do anything “normal” so it was stunt flying I was interested in. Finally, on my 42 birthday I was able to take up a WWII T-6 and do loops, corkscrews, and some other fun stuff.

Here is a quick video of the experience if you have three minutes and twenty seconds to kill. (Special thanks to my lovely wife for making it happen!)
