I try to post something every single weekday, and I’ve been pretty good about that, but as the midnight deadline draws near, I’m still working–for my real job, that is, the one that pays my mortgage. So I’m afraid I don’t have a new post today–go read Frequent Miler or Saverocity instead.
However, I do have a personal story to share. Some of you may know that I have about thirty children (not really, but that’s what it feels like). My wife took them shopping today, and the oldest, who’s almost 6, made a shopping list. Every time my wife started to deviate from the list, he said “No Mommy, that’s not on the list!” Every item over $1.00 was greeted with “That’s too expensive!” My wife said she actually spent less money today than she otherwise would have.
I am SO proud of this kid. Look for his personal finance blog in a couple of decades.
Have a great weekend!
