@Smarty – spot on with the estimation of 1MIL by 2020. It’s a first goal, I’m sure it will change when I start rolling better. But I figure I’ll start at the start.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hank,

Thanks for the mention on your post. I know I am late in posting my goals but like you said, it’s better late than never. I wish I could more frequently document on my financial progress, but there are so many things going on, it’s hard to constantly type up new status.

Also, I think your goal of a net worth of $1M by 2020 is very conservative. I presume you are giving yourself some leeway because of the kids.

Nice blog. I like the widgets and the presentation. Keep up the good work.

Hank, you’d definitely enjoy reading The Choice: A fable… I think anyone who has (1) an open mind, and (2) a desire understand current events would enjoy this book. Also, it is not a long book, so it’s easy to fit into a busy life.

I’ve been amused by some of the traffic google has sent my way. The book is sometimes used in classrooms, so I’ve had a small trickle of search traffic to that review. Many of the search phrases are obviously made by people working on a book report or who are hoping to avoid reading the book.
