Genius of Money Post 3: An Interview with Lynne Twist

I picked this interview because I like to do volunteer service too. During my high school life, I will do volunteer service twice a week because I think if we have the time and money, we should try our best to help those who are in need. Also, I have volunteered in the LA Food Bank and I feel that the hunger issue is a very important thing we need to solve it. Before participating in the LA Food Bank, I didn't notice that there were so many people suffer in hunger and I think the Hunger Project will be a very good platform to help them.

Lynne told us her childhood background where her religious path started after her father's death. She was very successful at school but at the same time, she was very devoted to God. She didn't want her friends to know that she was so spiritual. I know how she feels because I am a Catholic and I studied in a Catholic school before. But majority of the students are non-Catholic. They will think we are "spiritual freak", always go to church and pray. Lynne want to work hard and make her father feel proud of her.

For the last part of the interview, I need to go through it a few times to understand what she is talking about. I do agree that we should try to be happy with what we have, instead of always looking for more. We should treasure what we have got and don't take everything for granted.
