- Today is Trump family suck up day. (Was Ivanka just asked about real estate investing?)
- Gotta love the insecurity-based advertising from BDO.
- We must in a full force BS bear rally if earning disappointments are sending stocks higher now.
- “Ex post facto?” The correct term is “Bill of Attainder”, in regards to the specific targeting of certain companies’ bonuses.

What does one TRILLION dollars look like?. An interesting look at the figures being thrown around, in terms of what it would look like in the form of $100 bills.

A billion dollars…
A hundred billion dollars…

Creating a Life by Destroying Debt – I used to listen to Dave Ramsey regularly. The call-ins were a combination of cautionary tales and inspirational stories of overcoming massive debts.

This little blog is a little more ordinary than the average Dave Ramsey caller. That alone gives me hope.
