Maintaining Your Network is More Important Than Saving Money

  • August 12

If you’ve been following my most recent monthly recaps, you’ve probably noticed a couple of trends: First, I never quite seem to accomplish the previous month’s wellness goals (I swear, August will be different!) Second, my food & drink budget has been astronomical the past few months. The reason? Networking. Once I knew that I […]

Have You Calculated Your Bare Bones Budget?

  • August 1

Job loss. Illness. Family emergency. For the 38 million American households living hand-to-mouth, the sudden inability to bring home a paycheck can be catastrophic. For this reason, many experts agree that an easily accessible (liquid) 3-6 month emergency fund should always be kept handy to cover the essentials. While 3-6 months of expenses tends to […]

Why I’ve Quit My ‘Dream Job’

  • July 28

“Are you sure this is what you want?” I had just revealed to my boss that I needed to make a change and I was planning to start looking for other jobs, but his question really caught me off guard. Up until that moment, I had felt one hundred percent confident in my decision. It […]

Getting Away Without Leaving the City Limits

  • July 9

Photo credit: Sri Ganesha Temple As much as I love living in Nashville, it hasn’t always been easy to travel home to see friends and family for various events throughout the year. Holidays, weddings, birthdays, and reunions get expensive quickly, even with a free flight. While maintaining long distance relationships with loved ones is a […]

Are Music Festivals Only Catering To Rock’s One Percent?

  • July 1

Do you remember your first authentic music festival experience? Mine was the Vans Warped Tour, just outside of Boston, during the summer of 1999. Not yet old enough to drive, my parents dropped my sister and I off near the main gate of the Suffolk Downs racetrack. Despite the uncharacteristically hot and humid weather, we […]

My Second Net Worth Overshare

  • June 27

Caption: Anyone want to fund my visit back to Capri? Sigh. I love a slow summer morning: the early sunrise, chatter from the birds, the distant sound of lawnmowers, but most importantly, time to peacefully start the day before work. It wouldn’t be possible during the week without a quick ten minute commute, and for […]

Are Home Warranties Worth It?

  • June 23

Do you feel like you’ve ever been swindled? Been duped into spending your hard-earning dollars on snake oil? That’s how I feel about my home warranty. And apparently I’m not the only one. What exactly is a home warranty? I wasn’t completely sure when I accepted the one year plan that was included with the […]

How Much is Physical Fitness Worth to You?

  • June 12

I have a moderately embarrassing confession to make: I’ve gained 23 pounds since the middle of October and I’ve barely noticed. What makes this even more shocking is that I have a small frame (towering under most people at only 5’3″), so typically 5-10 pounds is extremely noticeable. How did it happen? Well, for starters […]

Renovating the Basement to Rent on Airbnb

  • May 30

For those of us who rarely enjoy a proper vacation, the lingering fear is always of what will or won’t occur once we’ve escaped from the grind for a few days. Will it be possible to completely relax and recharge? Or will we slip into deep state of lethargic bliss, making it nearly impossible to […]

Does a smokin’ neighborhood + vintage Airstream trailer + Airbnb = profit?

  • May 12

Photo credit: Jelanie My neighborhood is smokin’ hot right now. I’ve mentioned this several times and even asked readers how I should respond if a developer wanted to purchase my home to tear down. Five years ago, I was extremely fortunate to find an affordable 1,400 square foot 50s ranch house on .75 an acre […]
