If you're going to buy something which compounds for 30 years at 15% per annum and you pay one 35% tax at the very end, the way that works out is that after taxes, you keep 13. 3% per annum. In contrast, if you bought the same investment, but had to pay taxes every year of 35% out of the 15% that you earned, then your return would be 15% minus 35% of 15%-or only 9. 75% per year compounded. So the difference there is over 3. 5%. And what 3. 5% does to the numbers over long holding periods like 30 years is truly eye-opening.
Everyone works in the service of man. We doctors work directly on man himself. . . The great mystery of man is Jesus: 'He who visits a sick person, helps me,' Jesus said. . . Just as the priest can touch Jesus, so do we touch Jesus in the bodies of our patients. . . We have opportunities to do good that the priest doesn't have. Our mission is not finished when medicines are no longer of use. We must bring the soul to God; our word has some authority. . . Catholic doctors are so necessary!
