quite literally, if you put all your eggs in one basket and things go crash, there's a good chance every piece would break. so...
other ways to put it are:
hedge your bets
split and limit your risks
leave some for insuranceMy mother always said, dont put all of your eggs in one basket is that true and what exactly does the mean?
Don't count your chickens before they hatch.My mother always said, dont put all of your eggs in one basket is that true and what exactly does the mean?
DON'T PUT ALL OF YOUR HOPES AND AMBITION IN ONE DREAM....
SPREAD THEM AROUND..IF YOU LIMIT YOURSELF
YOU WILL CRASH AND BURN.
She is quoting the old wives tale - the basic premise being that you should not pin all your hopes on one things - but rather diversify. Set several goals and work toward them independently and that way if one fails, you have others to work with.
Well, if you have all of your eggs in one basket, and you drop the basket, then you're SOL. If put some of your eggs in one basket and some in another, then your chances of keeping the eggs intacted are better. It's just a phrase that means that you shouldn't rely on just one method or one way of doing something. You could get burned
dont try to do eveything at once

I get my news from Fox news and I am a Democrat does that mean i am not a true democrat?
No, polling has showed that the majority of all Americans find FOX News to ACTUALLY be the most fair and balanced news network out there. True, they lean to the right, but most moderates find that they lean much less to the right than say...MSNBC or the NYT lean to the left. So, while balance is usually the key, if you are happy with the news content you are getting, then by all means, enjoy.I get my news from Fox news and I am a Democrat does that mean i am not a true democrat?
No.
Some democrats dont want propaganda. And the fact is Foxnews is the ONLY news network that talks to BOTH liberals and conservatives to give BOTH viewpoints. They dont believe in silencing anyone but having ideas compete.
Liberals have up on giving the opposition a voice a long time ago. They have become cheerleaders and are invested in 1 party.I get my news from Fox news and I am a Democrat does that mean i am not a true democrat?
No, it means that you are a Democrat that decided to get news, not slants. If you watch the opinion shows then you know you are listening to opinion. If I watch NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC etc. I know that they are passing opinion off as news.
If this is true, you are probably either a Southern Democrat or you don't let the media (in general) think for you.. rather that you have the ability to question that which is presented to you
no, it's just confusing that you would watch that channel with all the smearing they do of democrats/liberals.
but, to each his own.
It means you are open-minded.
Most of the Lefties here, think it's propaganda........
they like to regurgitate Liberal talking points, without finding out for themselves.
Not at all, it just means you are an uninformed democrat.
There is nothing wrong with getting all sides, but where do you get the truth from, FOX? Are you kidding.
More Democrats and independents watch Fox news then Republicans
No, that means you are under sedatives...
It means you're not truly informed.
not at all.. news is news...
it is the opinion pieces run on FOX that are jokes...
It means your head was not put on right.
Of course not.
Not at all ... but where do you get reality ?
No.

If the multiverse hypothesis is true, does that mean there's a god for each universe?
Does that mean that there is one of me in each universe? oh wait i am real i forgot.If the multiverse hypothesis is true, does that mean there's a god for each universe?
according to the Bible God lives in a different universe..If the multiverse hypothesis is true, does that mean there's a god for each universe?
it depends on your definition of ';God';
either that or that G-d is multi-dimentional
There are many ';gods'; that rule over different planes of existence, but only one Supreme Deity.
No, individuality is a concept that exists only in this universe.

Dozens of prophecies that the world wouldn't end today have now come true, does this mean...?
That we have to write an Even Newer Testament now?
Dozens of prophecies that the world wouldn't end today have now come true, does this mean...?
damn, it's not going to happen! And i told my boss to go f**k himself and everything!
What a wasteDozens of prophecies that the world wouldn't end today have now come true, does this mean...?
The end of one end of the world is the beginning of the next end of the world.
See you all in 2012.
Like I Have Said Before, ';I Would Like to Know the Date of the Day After the Predicted 'End of the World', So I Can Breath a Sigh of Relief';.
Totally. Written entirely by cynics. Who predict that nothing interesting is ever going to happen, and wouldn't believe it if it did XD
It means NOTHING according to the Prophecies the end of the world is dated for 12 21 2012
Some how i doubt ';scientists'; would have said today, more like ';billions of years';.
Better success rate then describing someones birth in detail and being right?
Whoa now, let's not jump to conclusions. Let's at least try to end the world one more time before we resort to those extreme measures.
Prophecies of the end of the world not coming true is a sure sign of The End Times. It is written!
No. I also said that does that make me a prophet I think not.
No one knows when Jesus is coming back,not even Jesus Only God knows.
Name some if you can.
Hey, the day isn't over, buddy. It could still happen :P
no!
no we must convert to some other religon
Why are stores complaining about down sales for Christmas?Isn't the true meaning of Christmas is Jesus Christ?
in america it means santaaa.
lol and buying as much as you canWhy are stores complaining about down sales for Christmas?Isn't the true meaning of Christmas is Jesus Christ?
The stores are not worried about Jesus Christ, as it's 2008 and the majority of people ARE NOT CONCERNED about JC. So now, the true meaning of christmas is money... not jesus christ. its all about presents, consumers spendning money, and kids complaining that they didn't get enoguhWhy are stores complaining about down sales for Christmas?Isn't the true meaning of Christmas is Jesus Christ?
No, the true meaning isn't Jesus Christ. I'm not a Christian, but I celebrate the holiday commonly referred to as ';Christmas';. Christmas is very much a material holiday, whether we like it or not. And this year, a lot of people are watching their pennies and won't be spending as much.
What do stores have to do with Jesus Christ? They just want to make money. Duh.
Your kidding, right?
That would be for churches to complain about. For stores, they want to make sales, so they would complain about down sales.
true, but then againg, some of the stores are not christian
dont forget that
but overall, the holydays are to be with family and be greatful for what we have, not material possessions
Faith is one thing, and economics is another. Of course, this doesn't mean that faith shouldn't influence how you handle economics.
In American culture, Christmas sales can make about one-quarter of a store's yearly sales. Therefore, the stores need to do well at Christmastime. Now, you can see this as an unhealthy way to run the marketplace, and I agree with you. Dependence upon Christmas sales have led to the overcommercialization of Christmas.
It's up to individuals like you and me to keep the spiritual meaning of Christmas above the material. Gift are good, but be wise about your gift-giving. Don't give gifts you can't afford to people you don't care much about. Give some of your gifts to the poor. Give wisely to your family and friends, whether this entails expensive stuff or not. (Remember the gift Mary of Bethany gave to Jesus? Expensive gifts are sometimes appropriate.)
Society will not change its materialistic attitude toward Christmas unless individuals change, and influence their near and dear.

Um no.. its actually originally a pagan holiday.. christians ruin everything
American's spend approx 450 billion each year during the Christmas season. It would cost 10 billion to make clean water available to everyone in the world.

For shops, the true meaning of Christmas is making lots of money.
no the true meaning of christmas is money
Um, because stores exist to make money, I suppose.
Christmas is about Christ, stores are about $$profits$$
Yes, but with all holidays there is a commercial aspect. Surprisingly Xmas is NOT the number one revenue maker of all the holidays.
I have heard people of simple minds say: ';Christmas is for children.'; With that comment they are clearly referring to the gift giving aspect of the holiday. I find this more absurd than the commercialization itself because these people have become so influenced by the retail aspect of Xmas that they have totally lost touch with the true origins of the day.
That said, I like the idea of giving on this holiday. It seems to bring the best out of - almost - all people; and it does represent - although very loosely - the gifts of the Maji.
No, christmas is just a pagan holiday hijacked by the christians.
And why would stores be concerned about the true meaning of Christmas?
Now if churches were complaining about the down sales for Christmas...then that would be an interesting question.
Christmas was set up by the Catholic church to coincide with many Pagan rituals and traditions and it is not correct re: time; Jesus never said to celebrate His birth, although I'm thankful to God He was born, died and rose again
It has become a time of greed and for some depression and lonliness etc;
Jesus asked us to keep one ceremony, the communion in remembrance of Him
Jesus Christ Shmesus Shmrist who gives a holy crap.
That depends on if your christian. Some of us don't celebrate Jesus.
Christmas is the time of year where any store that is in the red will get into the black (thats how black Friday came along). Since our economy is down, this season is a sure signal of whether or not we are going to get as bad as many people beleive.
Not with our society.
Most stores are seperate from religion.
Christmas was never about Jesus.
Well...Christmas as actually a Pagan holiday before Christians came along.
But yes, you are right. Christmas has become nothing more than a day for businesses to make money. It's sad really.
I think for different people christmas means different things. for christians it is Jesus, for athiests perhaps it is the gifts, and for stores it's about how much they can boost their sales.
Not for me and my family. It's turkey and presents day ... family and unity day ... love and sharing day. Sorry you didn't get the memo. You can't steal christmas from the rest of us like you did from the Pagans. Nice try.
Yes it is! But not all store owners are Christians so they don't care about the true meaning of Christmas, many probably just like Christmas because of all the money people spend in the Christmas season.
yes we can
Yes, the true meaning of Christmas is Jesus Christ but many shops exploit this to gain a profit. Unfortunately for them, in heaven material possessions don't matter!
AMEN!!! We should stop all the buying and focus on Jesus!african american hair

What do u mean by true love and do u believe in love at first sight ???
true love is that you really love her and you wont cheat on her. and love at first sight is so wrong. i mean, you might even know if she has a diesease or something.What do u mean by true love and do u believe in love at first sight ???
LMAO ... if sight is the deciding factor then its attraction; liking what you see.
If sight were a factor then what do blind ppl do? Feel ya up till they ';fall in love'; (i.e. ';Those are some pretty nice lumps n curves ya got there lets get married';) LOLWhat do u mean by true love and do u believe in love at first sight ???
I fell in love at first sight only she didnt. Bummer!

What does life mean, in true sense ?
According to Vonnegut the meaning of life is to love whoever is around to be loved. (Care for those you see suffering and everything else will work itself out)What does life mean, in true sense ?
Are you asking for the meaning of life? Ask Monty Python!What does life mean, in true sense ?
A burden is upon you when you're born. It is not felt, not bothered about, but when you're maturing, it becomes more prominent. Which sucks.
That's why we should all grab a coupla booze and drink to a lousy life.
Life means what you want it to mean. It is an individual choice. You are the one who takes from it what you want. It can be filled with beauty, and ugliness. I do believe that the environment you were raised in will play a major role on what you feel life means. We all are learning machines.If you have learned love...your life will incorporate those feelings and expand to all of those you touch...if your learned hatred, the opposite will occur.
Life will be to you an accumulation of all you have learned. I guess I believe life is a learning experience for us all. I think we need to rise above the bad things and do something, anything for someone other than ourselves. We need to do it for them. Not for any other reason. It is a stretching of our soul's muscles. Hope this wasn't just meanderings...and it made a little sense!
all of the above
rays!
ofcourse can along!
Life is a test to see if we are capable of avoiding sinfull actions.
life is the course of existance for each individual living being animals or humans. There are 7 stages in life conception birth, childhods, adolesence, adulthood, old age and death,.
We are given life to create life, life is just a cycle that will continue as long as has nature has intended it to last.
hope this helps x x x
certainly a hard question to answer....
LOVE
Cant really discribe
who started the life?
God surely
and why he started the life?
only because love
think on urself and today how we came here from the start point?
how life started on earth?
ur question is confusing :D
It would mean, watsoever meaning u give it...
WATER takes the shape of the glass....
U give life a meaning , and its wat it is in any sense.. true or no..
my life is to save as many people as i can from degenerative deaises, war, sin, famines, to give my children what no other has giving them, hope, by improving my nutrition i improve my unconcetived childrens chances of helping the earth and having excellent health. dont drink, smoke or do drugs, stay off fast food.
Life is a knowledge of existence what you make of it and where you take it is the question.
life is love..to live..
life is a play of God, in which the play itself is God, the player himself is God and the playfield is also God...
