Every birthday is a gift. And some birthdays are bigger than others. Don’t I know it! Someone said my 30th, my 40th and just recently my 50th were big ones. And they were for a variety of reasons; then again it’s getting harder to remember why!
With the best intentions in mind, I’d like to review four of what I call “financially significant” birthdays with you, especially now that they are closer for me than ever before. (more…)
Every year, I have the opportunity to get a health screening. I get updated on my cholesterol, blood pressure, height and weight–the numbers that tell the story. Talk about a reality check! It’s a factual reminder of how well I’ve worked toward the fitness goals of last year: to be as healthy as possible and hopefully live a long productive life.
This got me thinking about other areas of my life that might benefit from getting a checkup–like my finances.
Although a special day is upon us, I feel like there doesn’t need to be one, because to me, every day is Father’s Day.
We all would like to say we look up to our dads. In my case I literally looked up to mine. He was 6’4”, 210 pounds and had a silver mane of hair that I hoped to inherit, but alas genetics dictated that was not to be.
In my last blog I talked about how being a father was such an honor that I wished I could change my name to Dad. Unfortunately, as proud as I am of being a dad, I don’t get to say, “Hi Dad” or “Hey, Pop,” anymore. My kids also have one less guy to call Grandpa. And as we come upon Father’s Day, none of us get to see or call him and say, “Happy Father’s Day.” That’s because I lost my Dad to throat cancer when he was only 57. (more…)
How could this happen?
I’m looking in the mirror through the eyes of a youthful 22 year old. Mentally I am still at the beginning of my life, with the world at my feet. My wife would tell you that I still act like a child, or that I should stop acting like one anyway. How can it be that when I look in the mirror I see what I see?
