Macbook vs Motorola Q
Well I never thought I would say this, but apparently the Motorola Q is a more durable device than my once trusty Macbook. Last Friday my macbook’s hard drive crashed complelety, rendering the computer useless and wiping all my data clean in the process. (fortunately I’ve backed up most important items in one way or […]
The Rules
(image via flickr user stevegarfield) What’s your “bedtime?” No you didn’t grow out of it, I bet you still have a time you think you “should” get to bed by. We all have these sets of rules we follow day in and day out. Rules are good because they add structure in guidance to your […]
Losing my Virginity…
by Richard Branson. I took some time a few weeks ago to re-read one of my favorite entrepreneurial books, Richard Branson’s Losing my Virginity. I love this book and consider it a must read for not only potential entrepreneurs but anyone who aspires to get all they can out of life. I could go on […]
How not to sell…
In trying to setup my HSA (Health Savings Account), I’ve been venturing into the world of horrible bureaucratic websites that require you to download PDF’s to get any information. I was fortunate to find a human friendly site in Vimo, which does a pretty good job of rating and explaining the different HSA options. It […]

Wow
I don’t know whether to laugh or cry… But I do know 2 things: 1.) They paid way too much to produce this video 2.) They probably should get this thing off of Youtube ASAP because instead of attracting new recruits, it repels them. (from Ben)
Financial Infrastructure
Ok as promised here is a glimpse at my personal financial infrastructure inspired by Ben Casnocha’s post awhile back. I am still working on it, and it’s difficult to truly stick to due to my current work situation which involves spurts of income instead of a consistent monthly flow, but it is at least a […]
Starbucks here, Starbucks there
One of the very first things I noticed when I moved to New York City was the unbelievable amount of Starbucks. I can, right now, think of roughly 7 Starbucks that are within a reasonable walking distance of me, 4 that are within 5 minutes of walking. You know what? They are ALL busy most […]
Mind Petals: Young Entrepreneur Network
I’m excited to announce today that I’ve been asked and accepted an opportunity to join the Advisory Board of Mind Petals, a thriving community for young entrepreneurs. I first heard about Mind Petals when their founder, David, wrote a little story about me after stumbling across my blog in a google search. I was flattered […]
Too much self-esteem?
“The Trump Blog,” (would you expect him to name it anything else?) has a post in which he asks whether too much self-esteem can be a bad thing: Recently, a new study found that today’s college students are more narcissistic and self-centered than ever before. The psychologists who conducted the research blamed the trend, in […]
