On July 22, 2013 I was 28 years old and I published WTF is this Stock Market Thing? (Step 1). (You totally don’t have to click that link. It’s not a very good post.) For the last 2815 days, seven and a half years, I’ve posted at least three times a week. For several years…

I am losing my ever-loving mind. I wonder how many of my touring friends out there, who have occasionally bounced back to mom and dad’s between gigs for a few weeks, and have now been there for months with no end in sight, feel the same way. I was supposed to buy a house this…

The other morning, I was pulling on a T-shirt and saw the label and I was struck by the idea that my closet is like a little financial timeline for me. As we wrap up the third month of un-/wildly under-employment I sort of laughed as I picked up the Banana Republic t-shirt and put…

I saw a post on Twitter recently requesting everyone search GIFs for their favorite movie and post the one that best represents 2020. I have also been a little crabby lately. So when I realized that my all time favorite movie has many GIFs that relate to 2020, I laughed a lot. Hopefully these make you laugh…
I am definitely in a motivation lull. Which kind of sucks, cause I’ve got a bit going on right now.

Friends, do you remember when I was so excited about my matching red glasses I bought from the Christmas Tree store like I was a real adult a few months ago? That picture is of them now and man oh man do they feel like symbolic of 2020 for me. I started out this year…

There is a fun little challenge going around the personal finance community called the 10 year challenge, where you look at where you were financially 10 years ago and compare it to where you are now – surely it’s a play off all those folks posting pictures of themselves 10 years ago, but a little…

So. How’s everyone doing with the isolation? I hope we’re all getting our social distancing properly on. I feel like every day is sort of roller coaster-y. Some days just zip through and I get a ton of stuff done. Other days, I feel like my brain is mush and I can’t do much more…
