Guess it had to happen sometime. My networth went down for the first time since I started this blog. Only a $300 dip, less than 1%, and yet that itches a bit... On the plus side, retirement savings went up a bit (20 shares). And I feel more organized and on track, as mentally-prepared as ever. Guess that's enough :)
Have a lovely labor day.

An East-Coaster bewildered that I ended up in the Midwest post-graduation. More bewildered that I've come to love it.
[This budget blog chronicles my valiant attempts to make a living off my writing and stay in the black...]
Likes: vegetables, CSPAN, high heels, travel writing, Anderson Cooper, rooftop bars, watching sports with strangers
Dislikes: monogrammed clothing, people who take pictures of food, my current travel budget, Wednesdays! ugh.
Currently: $42,305
But we have escaped an hour and fifteen minutes of trying to get our money's worth. {Bukowski}
