This week had a lot of ups and downs. CNN posted a pretty sweet article on timing what Uncle Sam gets but Brett Favre hung up his cleats also. The weather was sunny in the Pacific northwest for the first time since the rain started back in May, so that’s a good thing…
I churned out the new version of M.I.B. this week and I’ve got to admit, I’m pretty impressed with what Jon was able to cook up. He’s got the design down pat! Love his work and if anyone is looking for someone to help with their design, let me know because I’m happy to refer [...]
Photo by: meyshanworldThis week wasn’t so great – the stock market was down, so investments were down, and on top of it someone broke into my car and stole my stereo, DVD/TV setup all while tearing up the inside of my car. Ugh, that’ll hit the ol’ expense book and will hinder the 4k I [...]
Photo by: matangueroThis week I found myself fighting back the elusive CPU quota exceeded errors I was getting from Bluehost.com because I was getting a lot of hits from the Magic Quadrant of Personal Finance and “Why is it taboo to talk salary?” posts I tossed out this week.

Welcome to 2008 – hope the new year treated you all well. I’m working on a project to revamp the site with Jon Phillips and should have at least a rough draft here in the next few weeks. I like this design, but he’s let me know there are a handful of things that need [...]
Looks like I’m starting off the new year relatively clean; up 2.02% from December 2007. The house is still flailing a bit and my bet that Dodge & Cox (DODFX) would payoff for my new 401k allocation – The wifes 401k, on the other hand, stayed in REREX and the ol’ target fund TRRDX which [...]

I don’t have those assets there, but the idea of rebalancing index at end of year makes perfect “cents”. 2. MoneySmartLife shows [...]
In the season of giving, my wife has found other gifts for friends and family freeing up these gifts that I’m generously donating to a few lucky readers for the Holiday Season! All you need to do is help yourself become a better saver/investor in the next year. I’d like the post to be something [...]
Completely unrelated to my blog (aside from the fact I use the “contact” form) – but I figured I’d toss it out because I did some searching Google that a couple people posted concerning this error and my answer wasn’t in there – “Contact Results: Whoops! Error Made! Referrer Missing or Mismatch: It looks like [...]
I tried. I REALLY did try to like the context links on my page. I thought it might be nice to have a few extra $$$ from the site by way of the context links, but I’m just not feeling it. If anyone was logged on between the hours of 3am and 9am PST you [...]
