Personal MBA
I was surfing around a little bit this morning and ran into the manifesto of the Personal MBA. It’s a very interesting concept (not quite a “movement” yet), in that it it’s primary premise is getting a MBA is expensive. However you could read a group of books and discuss them online in an educated fashion and pretty much achieve the same business education.
From a personal finance angle, the Personal MBA could prove to be very beneficial. Furthering your education can help you in your career, ultimately making you more money by being a better employee. Yet, you don’t have the abhorent tuition bill of a great (or good) MBA program.
I think I may pick up a few books in their list of 42 and see how this goes.
Nice detailed article from Morningstar on how to find a trusted financial planner.
A New Home For Financial Fruition
The time has come for me to move to my own domain. Therefore, I am proud to announce that my new address is www.financialfruition.com. I look forward to posting regularly on personal finance issues, as well as shorter posts (please see the blue middle section of my new site).
I have changed my feed to reflect the new domain, and it should automatically send you my new posts. However, if you have a link to me I would appreciate if you could update it. I will be sending an email to most of the folks so they can make the change, but I may forgot some. Thank you, in advance, for doing this at your earliest convenience.
Guess Who’s Back
Whew, it’s been a doooosy of a year so far for me. Death in the family, bad personal injuries, and Blogger deleting my blog for over 3 weeks. What fun. On top of all that, I had to complete my biggest project of the year, our Corporate annual report.
I must correct myself regarding my last post on Sarbox and working on my company’s annual report. This year’s 10-K filings were supposed to be due at the end of February, however the government granted an extension in mid January that allowed it to be filed as late as March 16, 2006. However, next year we go back to having to file by the end of February. I still feel it is somewhat ridiculous, but don’t want to ponder at a better solution.
I look forward to getting back into the swing of things in the blogosphere. Time to build up readership again. Thanks to those who still have me in their RSS feeds and will read this.
Type at you soon.
