Don just wants a crack at an Ipod. I do miss seeing what competition can produce.

Wait, Mikes in bed with MSNBC now, guess the competition could be for a Zune instead. Yay!

Hey everyone, spread the word! Mike is going to have a contest for a Zune! How about.. Who can make the best belly button lint sculpture of Steve Jobs in the New Orleans of the Future?

How creative to put a single letter in a square. Of course the whole notion of a favicon with limited pixels to work with gives you some limits.

Mike, it has been a while. How about another of your famous contests for the best favicon someone can spot?

Shared it with my readers this am as I am always pushing the use of blogs both to get filtered content and then to provide filtered content with commentary to your target audience. Being such an intelligence agent for professionals is a big deal when their blog is being used to enhance their reputations and grow their business.

But, like just about every individual investor, I would very likely be better off financially if I limited myself to other forms of entertainment.

If you really want to get the most out of your personal finances, in terms of investment returns and time spent allocating resources, limit your reading to Warren Buffett’s annual shareholder letter, William Bernstein’s quarterly Efficient Frontier, and each new edition of Burton Malkiel’s A Random Walk Down Wall Street and Andrew Tobias’s The Only Investment Guide You’ll Ever Need (not that Malkiel or Tobias change their books all that much from edition to edition, but that’s the point).

I was browsing trough one of the above sites and I guess that they like you there.. Here’s the evidence..

If you’re able to watch TV in the morning “Squawk Box” on CNBC is a great way to keep yourself up to speed with just a few minutes of your time. It doesn’t hurt that Becky Quick, one of the anchors, is a knockout!

I’ve been looking for a financial blog to follow for awhile, as I’m tired of television garbage like Mad Money w/ Cramer.

Good thing he provides full-text RSS — that green text with the black drop shadow is painful.
