April and the 1nd Quarter of 2008 started off with bang. All three major U.S. Indexes were up well over 3%. My investments were up as well, just not quite as much. My portfolio given the hedges has a better relative performance when the market is down. However, I won’t complain too much about the [...] ... (more)

After reading this article on CNN, I felt sick in my stomach about the current state of American values. As the current mortgage crisis continues to unfold, I’ve become more cynical. I had my reservations around the bail out of Bear Stearns, especially after JP Morgan quintupled it’s offer to [...] ... (more)

I realize where you live is a deeply personal choice, and many people have good and great reasons for living where they do.
