I haven’t blogged in quite some time. I tend to think it’s a good thing, though.

1. Don’t use any Exchange/Cambio stations, especially in airports, to pull cash out of your accounts; Use ATMS. When I last visited Punta Cana, I was certain that I learned the only financial lesson that I needed to know–that I should never convert my American dollars into Pesos unless I was prepared to spend it [...]

When you earn more than the average American, which is about $45,000, it’s no wonder why we can have a high savings rate. In other words, no shit; that someone can save [...]
Less than five days ago, I decided that I wanted to publish another book. And today, you’re looking at it.
