A Tentative Personal Finance Blog

During the last six months, my life has drastically changed. Half a year ago, I would have given someone a blank stare if someone asked me what industries the Dow Jones represented or what the 500 in S&P 500 stood for. Today, I’m writing a personal finance blog for the last 6 weeks. […]

You’re witnessing history in the making today folks. This is the first post of a yet to be named, mostly about personal finance, blog.
