“I’m obsessively opposed to the typical.” Lady Gaga There are a lot of things you can say about Lady Gaga, but being ordinary isn’t one of them. This is yet […]
When Katy Perry first became popular, I thought she was kind of cool. Songs like “I Kissed a Girl” and “Teenage Dream” were edgy and she rocked pretty good in concert. Then all of a sudden she started with the lollipops, cupcake bra, and all of that lame crap, and I was like, “Huh?” And […]
I am sick of Lady Gaga’s new concert tour being reviewed by people who neither understand nor like Lady Gaga and her music. Screw the haters! Here is my review, by someone who gets it. A Little Monster! Lady Gaga’s current concert tour in support of her new ARTPOP album, dubbed “artRAVE: The ARTPOP Ball,” […]
Lady Gaga is an easy target these days. In a culture that loves to build people up and then tear them down, after so much early success she has a big target on her back.

(Although, in my defense, I have heard more than one male newscaster on TV say they also think she is kind of hot looking!) What completely sold me on Lady Gaga […]
The Rational Way to Think About the Investment in Your Home
In previous posts I have advocated investing in a home as a way to build wealth. Renting for long periods is generally a bad idea because you are not taking advantage of a U.S. tax code that incentivizes home ownership, and you are not building wealth in the form of home equity. Now I want […]
Remind Yourself What You Once Loved About Your Job
There was something that initially drew you to your line of work. It might have been the basic nature of your personality, or possibly your goals and dreams for the future. There is an aspect of your job that once, and hopefully still does, bring you joy. For me, I went into finance because I […]
