A blog on personal finance (banking, saving, budgeting and investing) and personal entrepreneurship.
April 3 7 Comments latest by I Will Teach You To Be Rich » Listen to me in a WSJ podcast, and the stork of entrepreneurship
If you’re visiting from today’s Marketwatch.com article, welcome.
I’m a recent Stanford grad and this is a blog on personal finance and personal entrepreneurship for college students, recent college grads, and everyone else. (Featured in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, US News & World Report online, etc.)
This blog is me ranting about a few things and trying to get the points across. Getting started is more important than being the smartest person in the room. Making mistakes is ok. Action is more important than reading 50 blogs. Ordinary actions get ordinary results. And there’s a difference between being sexy and being Rich.
Here’s a quick guide to get started:

I'm a pretty avid Digg follower and more often than not WordPress sites seem to do a poor job of handling traffic surges.
Perhaps a switch?

Great blog. Thanks for making the "intro for Marketwatch readers." Usually when I click over to a blog from an article I have no freaking idea what it's all about. Refreshing! Looks like some great content here; I like. Ok, back to poking around.
