I’ve been reading and thinking a lot about money here lately. Something I don’t think anyone can truly ever put out-of-mind, but definitely something most folks should probably seek more education in.

I’m a huge fan of Half Priced Books. I still say hi to the employees when I come through the door, but let me tell you I look immediately for just one thing. Those lovely purple background, yellow lettered signs that say CLEARANCE. My cheap old discount tree-book Heaven! You know why I love it […]
