我曾缩短工作时间，在我居住的美丽的地方散步、奔跑和远足，我发现与自然的这种接触是我生命中十分重要的一部分。

1. As a central reserve fund, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) was established to lend money to nations that needed to purchase their currency in order to support its value.
2. Once I had reduced my working hours and had time to walk, run, and hike in the beautiful area in which I live. I discovered that my connection to nature is a vital part of my life.
3. I think my parents influenced me most. Material wealth, status, and power were never revered in our family. I was taught to value honesty, fairness, and consideration of others.
4. When you’ve got inflation below 3%, unemployment at record lows, a growth about 3%, government surpluses of 1% of GDP, the economy has got to be in pretty good shape.
5. I’m self-employed, which means I have my own business. It’s a small printing business, and I employ two people full time and several part-time people, who help me when we’re very busy.
