This blog came about because my wife (who is a bit of an accomplished blog writer herself) and I saw something on tv one night about a personal finance predicament. We discussed it and I had voiced some very strong opinions on the matter, and how ridiculous the situation was. She said that I should start a blog. It wasn’t the first time she’d suggested it, and I’d always been kind of hesitant because I never saw myself as a writer. I’m more of a researcher.

However, that night I decided I would humour her idea and jot down some thoughts to see what I could come up with. Did I even have enough material to even bother starting a blog?

Over the next several days I kept adding to the list. On the 3rd day, I added up all the ideas I had gotten so far and surprised myself when the count reached over 200. That was when I realized that I should start a blog. And here we are!

I plan to get the majority of those ideas up here eventually to share with you and hope that you’ll stick around for the ride!
