This is a great story about a family that decided to take a plunge, and do something different. And while they went to a different extreme than most of us ever will, the premise stopped and made me think. Differently. And, hopefully, change the course of some decisions we make financially and for others. Thanks [...]

Here's another one that I didn't intent to post, but it was simply on my heart tonight. So here it is, full of imperfections, my vlog on "Authenticity...From a Friend."

Okay, so here it is...The vlog I've been postponing for ten days. Please, don't even watch it. I was compelled to post it by a Beatles song from 40-years ago. Yeah, I know. It makes no sense. To me, either. I am just trying to follow a "sign."

In the summer of ‘86 there was a great Wall Street Journal (hereinafter WSJ) article written about a Frozen Custard Stand in Lafayette, Indiana. I was 13 at the time. What was I doing reading the WSJ? Well, Friday night WSJ review nights, of course. Some of you know that every week we’d have “article review” where [...]
