As I’ve settled into the idea of being self employed and working under my own power non-stop, I’ve laid out a brief plan as to how I’m going to work up to the salary I was at back to when I was working “for the man.” I’ll spare you the details for now (future post idea!) but Adsense does play in to where I want to be, and I’ve made some headway, but I’m not there yet.

Wow, this market is just absolutely brutal. I was in High School when the dot com bust happened, and I remember the harsh reactions and in particular my brother who was working as a web developer at the time describe the carnage.

It won’t be anything particularly fancy, but it should help to add some more value to the blog and shine some light on a past time I find fun and interesting. With that in mind, feel free to drop me a line as to what stocks you’d like to see me take a swing at. What are the requirements? Dividends: Let’s face it, for me to analyze it it has to pay dividends, and on a regular basis too. One-timers and other
