Money and Finance
Unfortunately I'm back to the grind of work. Although that also means that I can get back into a routine of writing on a regular basis. Work is always such a bittersweet time. It's great for a few reasons namely that's how I earn my income and also because of the nature of my work I can write while on the clock. That's a pretty enviable position. The biggest drawback though is that my work takes me away from home and my wife. One big advantage to where I work is that it's usually away from big cities which means that I get to see awesome sunrises and sunsets. The picture from above was from yesterday morning and I love how you can see the orange orb near the horizon and the rays shining through the clouds. The picture honestly doesn't do the real thing justice.
I'm seeing lots of value in the markets currently and the big question is whether there's more to come or if the markets will resume their climb higher. I have no idea what will happen but my gut says we'll be looking at more red in the coming months. Of course my gut isn't the most reliable information source so I'd gladly be buying shares here if I had available capital, but sadly there's none to be found. That should get fixed over the next couple months as we get into a new normal with income and expenses once again, that's about the 20th time in the last 2 years we've had to make big adjustments, and I can't wait for some normalcy to return to our lives financially and otherwise. While I wait for cash to build up I'll get back to compiling my watchlist and figuring out target prices so I'm ready when the cash does come in.

This was another sunrise I was able to catch this past week. It was absolutely gorgeous and the picture doesn't do the majesty of it justice. I love how the rays are lighting up the clouds. This past week was crazy. We had all sorts of issues...

Another week down and we can count off September as well. The second half of September took the markets on quite a ride but with volatility increasing that usually means lower prices and better entry points. I took advantage of the volatility earlier...

Another week has come and gone. How do the days keep flying by so fast? All the more reason to reach financial independence as early as possible and start to recapture some of the ever-fleeting time that we have. With no appointments this week that...

It was yet another busy week for myself. I had to head back to work and away from home Monday afternoon. And of course that meant lots of work right away and then drill then a break and then lots of work again. But this just continues to reinforce...

Well my first attempt at the roundup for this week went horribly wrong. I had finished and scheduled it for yesterday morning and then wanted to add one more thing to it and changed my mind. Needless to say I didn't save it again and then it got...
