Yes, Dave it was great to meet you at FinCon in Orlando and put a name to a face. My sister actually got an MBA and I do not think it truly brought her what she was seeking as you stated in your post above about MBA’s as well. I have learned the doing is the thing. I learned more about writing and blogging by doing the work than I ever did about reading about blogging.

Nice post!

I meet one goal and then I set another one. It’s a great way to stay motivated and get things done. You need something to aim at. Something to shoot for. I say shoot for the stars. I like to save until it hurts! I set high savings goals so that I have to earn more or spend less to meet them.

Thanks, Miriam

Close 😀 it was Un Bien in Seattle. I don’t think it’s as good as Paseo though, I’d stick with Paseo xD

Ohhh yes I think it’s even more persuasive in Indian culture to be “perfect.” They make you tie ego and respect to it, terrible pressure. Chinese and Korean culture does it a lot too. I think Japan is probably one of the least strict (but still strict)

I think he might! When Jian retires early, Ye might just follow since they’re good friends. He’ll see the light then!

I’m too shy and chicken to ever hammer on someone’s life in front of them 🙂 but I can lead by example 🙂 I didn’t know you were at Fincon!!
