It’s my goal to post once a day - but have it be somewhat insightful at least.
I’m working on getting my “net worth” listed here to help track my progress - I’ll probably get that setup tomorrow, as for right now I’m still trying to run through an alternative theme (when I check out NCN, I feel like a rip-off - another project for tomorrow).
Here’s the ‘rough’ figures - no pretty chart yet:
Grand total of savings, expenses, and student loans, my net worth is:
-6,031.97
Not great. But last year:
-14,633.96
An increase of over $8,000! It should’ve been more. That’s why I’m here today, doing this blog, because I will do *much* better this year. That’s all for today, tomorrow I’ll have more to share and a few tips as well.

I’m currently in the market for a Real Estate agent. I’d figure that once I made my intentions known, people would be beating down my door for business.
So far, we’ve received a flood of “lenders” offering us an assortment of loans. Is that helpful? No.
We finally got contacts by two real estate agents - they sent us a listing of houses and asked us to contact them. One lady sent us a notice saying the property she had listed was sold, but she had similar listings, and another gentleman sent us a listing of homes similar to what we were emailing him about, and asked us to contact him. After these initial offerings (we liked some of them) we contacted them both - and neither have responded.
Did the sub-prime lending scandal end their faith in their own business? Are Real Estate Agents freaking out?
I guess it’s back to square one.
