Mo’ money, mo’ money, mo’ money.
Month 1 of 2012 is done, and I rather think it's been a good one. The weather has been nice, I still have a job, and we've had no major illnesses or breakages of major household items or autos. The DW has had a relatively successful business month and finally got paid for all …
There are 53,058 books on goal setting at Amazon, and my 2012 goal is to read none of them. It's only day 3, and I'm well on my way to succeeding. My only goal is on every page of this blog, that's one million dollars in net worth. I'm about a quarter of the way …
As I looked back over all the net worth posts of 2011, I have to acknowledge that it was a rough year. There's just no getting around it. A lot of things went wrong for my family that impacted us financially. Most of those were beyond our control. I wrote a nice post a while …
November kind of sucked. My son was sick…again. I was sick…again…twice. The house down the street sold for a ridiculous price per square foot because of their carpeted garage and dragged the Zillow estimate on my home down almost $10k causing unnecessary distortion in my net worth. I'm whiny and sleepy tonight, but let's get …
The theme for October is definitely: "Give Me Some Booty" My pirate son scored last night by generating well over 50 pieces of booty from the Pleasantville suburb down the road. Any activity that gets a 5 year old to repeatedly work on learning to add and subtract is good by me. Plus, I get …
Wow, it seems like September really flew by. Maybe that's because I spent half of it in bed in a flu-like haze. One day my son will learn that his hand is not a good substitute for a tissue. Until then, I will suffer. Some good news on the homefront though. We found a …
Well another month has gone by and my net worth (ex-real estate) has taken another hit (-3%). Now most if not all of these losses are market driven paper losses that should be irrelevant over the long-term. In the short-term though, the future is a bit hazy. At least that's what it says when I …
Net worth (ex-real estate) took a hit this month largely due to the gutless, witless political posturing by the folks in Washington that mired the equity markets for the past month. I look forward to an equally disappointing display from both parties in the coming months as they fail to overhaul the tax system or …
A funny thing happened on the way to writing this post. I was searching for an appropriate image to go along with this month's net worth update. My choices on Amazon came down to this book, which actually looks pretty good from the reviews, or the Net Worth Cock Ring Thong. I decided to go …
It's been a very busy month from the perspective of my real job so unfortunately my blog has gotten shortshrift. I apologize for the dearth of posts, but hopefully we'll get back on track with this net worth posting. There were no major financial events that took place in May so basically we're just seeing …
