Living Below Your Means

Living below your means can mean a lot of things. I don't think it's as simply as just saving some portion of your income. Spending everything you earn is not living at your means. Here's an article with more information on living below your means.

Disney Social News

I'm very excited about DisMarks a website for Disney-related social news. While I'm more of a Disney World fan than anything else they cover all the parks, Disneyland, the Cruise Line, general Disney Media and even corporate news. It's a great place to keep up to date on Disney stuff and I hope it takes off.

Josh Howard Drives Me Crazy

For a long time the Dallas Maverick's Josh Howard was my favorite basketball player. He had a huge enthusiasm to play. Back in the days when Nelson was coaching, Howard would try to sneak back in during garbage time just because he liked to play. He peaked in his "All Star" season when he was selected as a replacement. At that point he was a great utility guy. After being designated an "All Star" unfortunately, he decided that meant he was a scorer. So he converted from a very good utilty guy to a okay scorer. It didn't help that this coincided with all his off the court issues. I think it represents a microcosm of my relationship with the Mavericks that Howard has gone from being so fun to watch to just another NBA player.

Personal Finance and Investing

Personal Finance and Investing is a blog that covers the gamut of subjects, from economic policy to debt reduction. It provides a good way to get a general view on economics and personal finance. It can help you start thinking in a more financial state of mind. If you're looking for information on whether the debt snowball is for you, or how to think about the AIG situation, you can get a broad, but focused economic view.

The Disney Food Blog

Disney World freaks (like me) love what we call "food porn." Namely pictures of awesome food and lots of them. The Disney Food Blog provides plenty of stimulation for metaphorical perverts like me. I may never be able to get a reservation at Le Cellier but at least I can look at pictures of what luckier people get to eat. Besides looking at pictures of the Kitchen Sink at Beaches and Cream is considerably healthier than actually eating it.
