April 2008 Net Worth


So it appears my Net Worth took a bit of a hit this month. Fortunately, I know that the hit is mainly my car's value and not any additional debt. A few weeks back my tire went flat which led me to find some additional damage on my vehicle that takes it from being in "Good" condition down to "Fair". It's OK my car will be alright but the difference in Value is about $750 give or take. Plus old 'Carmen' is coming close to pushing 200K so it might be time for a new ride very soon.

On an entirely different note - I am really glad I'll be switching back to my home Internet come tomorrow once it's installed in the new place... one major disadvantage of library Internet is the possibility of sitting next to pseudo-homeless person who hasn't bathed in days. People sitting around you begin to think your the cause of the stench and it might be rude to just stand up and point to the person next to you who's causing the stench. So much for manners...

Anyway - once my Internet is up and running I'll be posting my goals for May. Until then thanks for reading.

Article/News bit of the week: new career time

Again, I've been a little bit busy but, after sifting through a couple online articles, I'd say this article
found on yahoo's finance site is the best.

It's an article entitled "The Right Career Is Yours for the Taking"

Penelope Trunk gives 5 tips for finding the best job for you. The 'tip' that I can learn the most from would have to be:

4. Start caring about how you present yourself.


Luckily, I will be able to do this without going broke very shortly. I'm started to get excited for my impending shopping spree.
