Is College Still Worth It?

Just two weeks.

That is all you have left until they leave. You have thought about this for 18 years. Sending your son or daughter to college. You saved and planned for the cost and now the day has come when it is time to walk back to the car and make the drive home after moving them into the beginning of their next step in life.

No, they will not be there magically as if it was a dream when you get home.

This begins a step towards their future life and it is time to let them go.

Which Way Are You Going?

Which Way Are You Going?

DOES IT MATTER?

One of the questions that I am often asked in general conversations is “where should I be investing my money now?”.

My answer is always the same.

“That would be hard for me to answer since I do not know what goals you are trying to reach with your money.”

The questioner then follows up with, “well it doesn’t matter, I just wanted to know what you thought was a good investment right now.”

Without having a plan, the odds are high that your future is much like a Financial Zombie!

The Ups and Downs of Getting Fit

Sunday morning at about 9:00AM Dallas time I will start my journey for the Napa to Sonoma Half Marathon by going down the hill at the Cuvaison Carneros Winery in Napa County to turn left and ascend up Butt-Burner Hill. It is ONLY 3/10’s of a mile but for me, it might be more like running the steps with Rocky. When I get to the top, I will see three things. Off to my left about 20+ miles will be the San Francisco Bay, and for the next 2 miles, the view is incredible. Check out my Instagram account and I will focus on getting a picture of the view and the other two things I will see.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream

A Midsummer Night’s Dream

A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a comedy written by William Shakespeare between 1590 and 1597. It portrays the events surrounding the marriage of Theseus, the Duke of Athens, to Hippolyta. These include the adventures of four young Athenian lovers and a group of six amateur actors (the mechanicals) who are controlled and manipulated by the fairies who inhabit the forest in which most of the play is set. The play is one of Shakespeare’s most popular works for the stage and is widely performed across the world.

What is our Midsummer Night’s Dream or is it a this a ongoing Nightmare?

Taken today that same play might be considered Europe or the United States.
