Ask the Readers: Would you take 5%?

June 1, 2016 by Mr. 1500 Days 45 Comments

Last week, I asked if you were creative. Before I get into the readers' answers, I have a confession: You're wasting your time reading this blog.It's true. The reason is that everything that needs to be said has already been said. You wont learn anything new here. Jim Collins already covered investing.

Ask the Readers: Are you in Tune with your Body?

May 16, 2016 by Mr. 1500 Days 27 Comments

Two weeks ago, I asked you what you're reading. Before I get to your answers, I have to tell you why I asked. Before that though, here are some cool pictures that I took on a brief jaunt to Utah last week:Have you ever met someone who doesn't know how to have a conversation?

I spent the week in the Windy City doing actual work (shudder). On Thursday, I jumped back in the Honda Element and headed west. I stopped here in Omaha where I met Mrs. 1500 to attend the Berkshire Hathaway annual … [Read more...] about Ask the Readers: Read anything good lately?

April 25, 2016 by Mr. 1500 Days 25 Comments

I'm on the road for a work trip. Flying is boring, so I drove instead. On Friday, I jumped in the old Honda Element and made my way to Iowa. I met up with the Gwen (Fiery Millennials) and Reader Ginnie* for dinner. On Saturday, my first stop was at the the National Motorcycle Museum followed by a quick visit to the takeout counter at Toppling Goliath, a world renowned brewery … [Read more...] about On bended knee is no way to be free

Ask the Readers: What do you Fear?

April 18, 2016 by Mr. 1500 Days 46 Comments

Do you read Warren Buffett's annual letter? I love Warren's letters because they are filled with optimism. However. page 25 of this year's letter is scary. More on that in a moment. Ugly Business from two Weeks Ago First, we have to get to the business from two weeks ago. And the business was not good. It was actually quite shitty (desperate times call for desperate words). I … [Read more...] about Ask the Readers: What do you Fear?
