The main tenant we all should be concerned about is if we’re spending less than we’re making. Money comes in, money goes out, so as long as you’re spending less than you are making, your net worth will start to grow, and your finance security will stabilize…

Throughout the many cultures of humankind, there have always been strong frameworks that people have used with which to frame their life.
Parents have often been this source for people throughout history. Countless people have attempted to guide themselves along the same paths that their parents followed, having seen quite closely the value of those paths…

Last week while coming home from a trip to Yellowstone with 100 other passengers in a 5 hour flight from Denver to Ft. Lauderdale. I was thinking what should I be doing there. The idea for this post came to my mind then and there. I watched people doing all sorts of things on flight and made mental notes of the things I thought were interesting…

The following is a post by community regular JayCeezy who was able to successfully retire from his job with a healthy severance package. The post highlights the bitter sweet peculiarities of leaving one’s job of so many years. A large part of you will scream to hold on to what you know. But deep down it’s clear there’s nothing promising left and it’s time to go…

Mindfulness is something that has tripped me up in the past. However, I’ve found that as I pay attention to what I’m actually doing, I make better decisions.

When I travel, I like to stay connected (unless I’m camping; then I want to be left alone). As a result, I make it a point to look for ways to access the Internet when I’m out of town. This is very important, since my entire livelihood depends on Internet access.

This post is from staff writer Holly Johnson. It’s been a long time since I’ve been broke, but I can still remember exactly what it felt like. I can picture all the ugly details of the way I used to struggle; the empty bank account, the awkward moments, the feelings of despair…. And honestly, one particularly awkward conversation with my sister still plays clearly in my mind to this day: “Hey sis, I’m coming into town this weekend,” she said innocently…

Well THAT was a fast year! And now because I’m a dad I’m allowed to say things like “they grow up so fast, don’t they?” And “Stop playing with your penis!” Haha… Man, what a ride so far 🙂
