Hey everyone, it’s Finance Fridays. Today is just a short post stating “Money isn’t real” for everyone to ponder. This picture isn’t really related to the topic. It’s a just a cute Maneki-neko I found on Pexels. “Money is just a tool.” “A means to an end.” So, in reality, in this rat race to try to obtain as money as possible, you should probably ask yourself, what is your end. Or, if you want to take it […]

Hey everyone, it’s Whatever Wednesdays again. Today we’re going to talk about “Where’s the Bottom for Crypto?” Where’s the Bottom for Crypto?

Hey everyone, it’s Whatever Wednesdays again. Today we’re going to talk about a somewhat random topic, which is “Being First“. Being First? Yea. There are a lot of implications for when I talk about “Being First”. It can mean the first to do something or being the best at something. In general, it’s just about being #1. First a little background: Right now my daughter is 5 years old. She just started kindergarten. I tend […]

Hey everyone, it’s Labor Day. I was planning to take the day off, however, I decided to write about “Doctors Shouldn’t Retire Early?”, as a followup to my previous post:  Stuff versus Time and physician FIRE comments. Doctors Shouldn’t Retire Early I actually was going to take the day off, but I thought this was kind of a fitting post for Labor Day. Well, like I said in my previous post, I didn’t read the whole […]
