So, I had a post written about how to go bankrupt for today to test the waters in actually writing real and useful
information for this site, instead of me just rambling on about stuff I know,or like, or whether it’s going to rain next week.

And it’s all ready to go, but I have a few problems:

1. I’m no professional. I can research and gather and write about RRSP’s, or debt reduction but I’m no expert and I want to be sure that you, dear reader understand this. You mileage may vary, etc. If you are in debt, and reading this, please call a professional for advice for your particular situation. I’m writing and doing what works for me.
You might be able go completely cold turkey and give up starbucks. Me, not so much. Debt is personal, and everybody’s situation is different.

2. It’s like WORK! And, OMG researching it is oh so boring. If it were stereo’s, or photography, or some other topic that would be fun…maybe. I can ramble on here and bang out 1000 words in no time flat. But when I have to write something that actually requires research and effort and not just what comes off the top of my head or I have knowledge about without thinking, then I get frustrated. I’ve only got half a paragraph written, but it’s taken me an hours. I guess the upside of the work would be that I’d be actually producing content with some value rather than fluff like this.

Today’s fun item:
As I write this, I am rank number one for the search term I’m woth stupid. I’ve written about it so much I rank number one out of 48 million results. Of all the terms in the world I want to be an expert on, I’m thinking I could chose better than stupid.

Just a short one today, as there’s really not much news on my debt journey for today and I’m in no place to start giving out real advice yet.
