A Lap Of The Blogs

May 7th, 2009 • Related • Filed Under
                                                         

If you are new to WhereDoesAllMyMoneyGo.com, every Friday I run a post called “A Lap Of The Blogs” which provides links to articles I found interesting and think that others may want to read for themselves. I also include some commentary on what’s going on in my personal life and a weekly “racing video” since my former life was in the auto-racing industry. The name “Lap of the Blogs” is in reference to “A Lap Of The Gods” which is an old video series which chronicled on-board footage of the world’s greatest F1 drivers lapping various racetracks from around the world.

Another non-embellished post today – just came back from seeing the Star Trek movie (in IMAX no less!), and I need some rest tonight as I’m heading to Mosport in the morning to put in a few laps in some formula cars…

    Thanks for the mention. That race car engine testing job is almost as good as the job of testing airplane nose designs by catapulting dead chickens at them. Some jobs are destined to have negative pay.

    Thanks for the mention. Passive trading may be good for some folks, but not for me, but I do like Passive Trading :-) Have a great weekend.
