Hey everyone, it’s Finance Fridays again. Today we’re going to examine “An Unpopular Opinion about FIRE”. An Unpopular Opinion about FIRE First things first. Perhaps you may be thinking that this post is going to go into a heated debate about FIRE and whether I like/dislike it. Maybe you thought I was going to Suze Orman style and talk about how “bad” it is. I’m not here to talk about those things. I’ve already talked […]

Hey everyone, it’s Whatever Wednesdays again. Today is just a short post about “Brisket Sauce”. Brisket Sauce I’ve talked about it before, but “my currency” is “Gens”. Recently, my daughter also seems to like Gen BBQ. However, I think she’s more enamored with the brisket sauce rather than just the brisket itself.

Hey everyone, it’s Finance Fridays again. Today, I’m going to talk about “Revisiting Value Cost Ratio“. Revisiting Value Cost Ratio I’ve talked about Value Cost Ratio a lot before. I’ve also talked about “My Currency“. However, today we’re going to revisit both concepts… but not for me. Today, we’re going to talk about my daughter Kylie.

Hey everyone, it’s Whatever Wednesdays again. Today we’re just going to talk about “Loungin’ with Lucas”. Loungin’ with Lucas This is just kind of a little introduction to my son, Lucas. He’s made some cameos here and there on the site, but this will kind of be the first post dedicated to him. Lucas was pretty quiet prior to turning 4 years old. His older sister is kind of the extrovert of the family and […]
