About Me
Typical family guy in my 50's. House, spouse, kids, dog, cat, etc.
Why I Joined
To compare myself to like minded folks and to let me see my networth every quarter.
Best Financial Decision
Putting money away into the retirement account from an early age and treating it as untouchable.
Worst Financial Decision
A family vacation to Europe. Done for all the right reasons but not one of those was financial.
Current Investing Strategy
Index funds for now while I try to drag us out of debt and survive the college years.
How do you manage your finances?
Probably too conservatively. I use home grown spreadsheets generally.
Favorite Books
The Wealthy Barber (good all-round advice), Millionaire Next Door, Life or Debt, Your Money or Your Life.
