Why personal finance is like driving a car

I drive about 2 1/2 hours a day every weekday. As long as the traffic isn’t too bad, I really don’t mind it too much. The longest portion of driving is to and from work. My ride in is a time to wake up, begin getting my thoughts together for what the [...]

Opps! Partial RSS Feed Returned to Full Feed

I implemented a new plugin this morning to show post summaries on my main page.  I did this to keep it from being so long and allow new visitors to see more of my content on the main page.

Our daughter Emilee. Adopted from Guatemala in October 2006
Total investment to get her home: $30,000
