I want to wish everyone a very Happy New Year on this first business day of the year. While I’m still putting the finishing touches to my personal finance goals for this year, I do want to share some of the topics that I will be writing about in the next couple weeks.
- Mortgage Shopping Walkthrough - I should close on my condo this month, and want to share my most recent experience with shopping for a mortgage.
- Measuring Investment Performance - I’m looking at better way to measure my overall investment performance. One of my goals this coming year is to become a more disciplined investor.
- Getting Rid Of Christmas Excess. - The holiday season is time of excess. Excess food and Excess stuff. I need to start hitting the gym again. In addition, I’m also looking at ridding myself of old stuff.
So those are some of the topics I hope to sharing in the next couple weeks. However as this is the start of the new year, I’m also soliciting topics that people want me to write about.

Stocks have been hammered…curious to see if you survived unscathed or even profited well from good timing.

As you can see from my most recent post, I’m basically at or near S&P 500 performance in my brokerage account. My IRA is not doing so well, but my 401k actually is performing pretty well having benefited by a well timed move into a inflation protected bond fund. You can look forward a more detailed picture next week…
