Now, if bli neder (please don't take this as an oath) I try to remember to write the Jewish year, I guess that this is a good one to start with, 5772. That's because it has two 7's in the middle, surrounded by 5 + 2 = 7. OK, let's see if I can begin to learn it. The harder version is the real one, in Hebrew תשע"ב. But now that I've written about it, maybe it'll somehow stick in my mind.
I'd like to take this opportunity to wish all of you a year of blessings. G-d should bless you with the ability to be truly rich. And what's a rich man according to Chazal, our sages? A rich man is שמח בחלקו same'ach b'chelko, happy with his portion. We must learn to see the blessings, the humor and the goodness in all, including our greatest challenges, especially the things we can't change, have no control over.
