We all know that Saturday nights can be rather expensive. Well, tonight doesn’t have to be. In fact, you could end up “in the money”. The Personal Finance Blogger community is having a p0ker game tonight. For details check out: http://mblogpoker.blogspot.com The less you know about the game, the better……. :) Or, what I meant to say was, “We’d love to have you join us!”
Mardi Gras is ON!
Leave it to those New Orleans locals. Mardi gras is one of those festivals that you just can’t “not” do. You’ve heard of the drink down there called the hurricane? Apparently, due to the sensitivity of what’s happened down there they are going to stop serving the “hurricane”. They have started serving a new drink down there though. They call it the “fema”. Apparently it
You Know Something? I’m Pretty Lazy!
Thank god you can still become a millionaire if you are lazy. It’s going to take me a little longer than I’d like, but I’m on track.

Can you be Outsourced? Is your Financial Future at Risk?

I’m reading a book called “The world is flat†(yes, I’m still reading it. I’m going to finish it soon). I mentioned, previously, that this book talks a lot about how our world economy is changing and all the forces that
It’s all back up and running
Ahhhhh. Thank goodness. I got everything squared away on the old site and it now links to this site. The best part is that all those other links out there will now work indefinitely. I’m going to stop posting at the other site and will only be posting here from now on. I expected a few glitches, but they still aren’t fun when they happen…….
Boy, did I ever screw this up
Uggghh. After setting up this new blog with my own domain, I went through the process of moving all my old posts from http://elym.blogspot.com over here. I got them all, but without comments. Unfortunately, that isn’t the worst of it. After publishing them here, blogger decided I must not need my elym.blogspot.com domain and took it away. Now I don’t have the ability to redirect
Welcome to the New and Improved ELYM
Like I mentioned in my post over at blogger, the time has finally come. It’s early, so please cut me some slack…. :) As time goes on, I’ll get all the previous posts categorized and in the right place. I’ll also complete the links to my fellow PF bloggers. You’ll also notice that there are no ads. Screw ads. I’m going to take some time
I finally bit the bullet and signed up for a domain
Well, I knew the time was coming and I finally decided to pull the trigger. In the next couple weeks I will be moving this blog over to a domain on another server. I have to say thanks to Jonathon at Mymoneyblog.com for the hot tip on where to host. He also saved me $77 off the first year of hosting. Check out this post
