Where’s Angry?
Where did The Angry Millionaire go? Where is Angry? Can you spot him? Do you know where he went? Please do not attempt to find me in the picture above because, simply, I am not there. You may try to find Waldo if you wish… I know he is there somewhere. I know it has been forever and a day since I have posted and a lot has gone on since then. This post is … Continue reading
Hello from the Mediterranean!
Hello from the Mediterranean! I want to start off by apologizing for not writing more often. I am currently at sea, stationed aboard the USNS John Lenthal T-AO 189, a fleet replenishment tanker owned by Military Sealift Command. If you read my last post, I gave up my law enforcement career to go back out to sea as a 2nd Electrician. I was an electrician in the U.S. Navy for almost 10 years. I … Continue reading
Blessings and sacrifices…
Many of you were wondering where I disappeared to. You might wonder what is up with the picture of the ships and helicopter above. Well, the short answer is…I got a new job! I know you all must be shaking your heads and thinking… “You just moved to Texas and got a new job there! What gives?” That is correct. In a nut shell…I got out of the US Navy in 2002 after almost 10 years of … Continue reading
Another one bites the dust…!
Today is a good day, Today I write to you about the latest credit card we paid off! Our USAA $6,000 limit (USAA 6K) MasterCard finally bit the dust. Now the method I used may be somewhat controversial to most of you and it wasn’t an easy decision to make. However, I knew my decision has to be based upon facts and mathematics and not emotions. We used my daughter, Natalie’s 529 College Savings Fund to do … Continue reading
Ways I save money
I have been asked by a few of my friends to reveal my “secrets” on saving money. Just as there is not a “secret diet” to lose weight, there is not a secret method to save money. It is common sense. DO NOT SPEND MONEY! However, we all know that this is impossible. There are everyday expenses that have to be taken care of. With this being said, I have made a short list of … Continue reading
Out with the old, in with the New Year!
I am still trying to figure out where 2011 went and why it was in such a hurry! As I blink again, it is February 2012. Seems that the older I get the faster time seems to go by. I remember being in Naples, Italy on New Years Eve 1998. I was a sailor in the US Navy, stationed aboard the USS Thorn DD-988, a Spruance Class Destroyer. Thorn was in command of a … Continue reading
You Have To Take The Power Back!
I am taking the power back! I want to start this post off with an apology. I am sorry it has taken me over a month to post a new article. I really wanted 2012 to start off with a BANG! and unfortunately, it was a dud. So, instead of fighting with myself to get January rolling, I decided to take a very short sabbatical and re-prioritize my life. I needed to find a new “anger” … Continue reading
Is Your Job Like a Bad Relationship?
Does your job feel like a bad relationship? Was your job perfect in the beginning and then became unbearable over the course of a few months or even years? You are not alone. Hating your job, just like being in a bad relationship is not healthy. What makes a job/relationship bad? It may have to do something with compatibility or outside influence. Look back at past relationships and think about your compatibility with that person. … Continue reading
