Looks like I joined the forum 13 years ago (how the crap did that happen). I quit the job that drove me to this site everyday after a few months and became self employed and did pretty well. I am now a 40 year old lawyer with a family. Meanwhile, the basics of my goals from 13 years ago...

I have been doing quite well financially lately. I finished law school two years ago. I have been steadily employed, my debts are dissapearing rapidly and my investments are growing quite quickly. I have focused on my needs and desires and found that I have discovered what truly makes me happy...

Not that this is news to anyone. I was putzing around of MSN's money site. I found my way to their strategy lab where they use different method for picking stocks. Then I noticed they started this round of picking stocks in January. So the returns they were showing was a YTD. Then I noticed...

Probably not the best place to expect any interest but since this is my favorite forum, I thought Id add a little football (soccer) to the posts. now for the sobbing.. just a few weeks ago I had dreams of a Chelsea EPL championship and the UEFA cup... and after just 4 days the cup is gone and...

I'm a 27 year old attorney. I have been planning on buying my first house in about a year from now. To that end I have been paying off debts and thus my savings are at a minimum at this point. The debts are going away but I dont have all that much saved for a house right now. I have about $5K...

I have been quite picky for some time- I blame my mother- only half and half. More recently I have shifted to only Organic half and half. Im quite picky about all sorts of things I put in my body. We can discuss the benefits/problems with my caffeine induced consciousness later. Then one day...

If you use an online stock tracking program what is it? I use quicken for all my financial information but I was thinking about using something online just to track my stocks on a more regular basis- i have some on MSN but its very simple and I dont think I really like it- its either buy or...

I am a young guy who has been riding my bike to work for the first few years of being a lawyer. My wife and I have a 1992 Ford Explorer that I always planned on driving till it stopped running- its just I thought that was a few years later. I have a mechanic I trust implicitly (old family...

I couldnt decide where this fit in and so I decided it didnt really fit in anywhere. So here it goes. I sort of feel silly for even bringing it up. Im a football freak. Sometimes my wife calls herself a "Sunday Widow." And as sad as that sounds thats not the point of the post. This year the...

I guess my issue isnt if Im being irrational but rather how irrational I am. I have student loans of about $80,000.00 right now. I consolidated a few years ago and once I finish getting all my interest rate reductions it will be a loan at a 1.85% rate for the next thirty years. For now I am...

So here I am- a 27 year old attorney who has had several goals most of my life. To own lots of fancy cars and a big house, join the golf club, and own every single electronic device that has/will be released the moment it hits the store shelves. I was in school and just kept going and all the...
