Go Out And Live!Compound Your Face OffThis is one of my favorite concepts when it comes to personal finance. Compounding, as Albert Einstein allegedly stated, is the 8th wonder of the world.

Go Out And Live!That Pisses Me Off!I'm hoping this will be the start of a "feature" every so often. Sort of like the Financial FAQ conversations. What's pisses me off is when any "advisor" really, but especially a FIDUCIARY advisor doesn't follow through on their duties to those they serve.
