As time goes by, I am realizing that the need to consider retirement is really not that far off. Ideally I am hoping to retire at 55 years old, which is not that far off. The obvious things worry me… will I have enough to retire, where can I afford to retire, will I have … Read more
Just a quick note to my readers… Tonight at 20:00 Pacific time (That’s 8pm for those of you in Rio Linda), I will blow out the database, removing all non registered users. This is to honor a “request” that I no longer send my emails to people whom I did not first ask their permission. … Read more
