A young woman I knew years ago was suddenly orphaned by an auto accident that killed both her parents. Terrified and stricken by the loss and its unpredictability, she took all of the insurance money and, after funding her education, bought gold. "And one ruby," she said. "Why the ruby?" I asked. "To pay the boatman," she answered.
Moral: Always put enough money aside to pay for essentials should the need arrive. Expect the need will arrive. And always have enough money hidden to escape, to pay the boatman.
