Techno Wizard Sometimes I question the wisdom of Techno Wizardry. I’m not alone. I live in a high rise apartment building. All year long I have my windows open venting the vast amounts of heat that are pumped into my apartment every day. Even with the windows open it is normally uncomfortably hot.…

10 Key Metrics Hal Geneen of ITT once said ,”The drudgery of the numbers will set you free.” He also reminded us that, “The numbers aren’t the business; they are a picture of the business.” True enough.

SIMPLE We have all heard the saying, “if only life were that simple”. Well… maybe it is. The book SIMPLE by Alan Siegel and Irene Etzkorn argues that simplicity can help achieve competitive advantage for businesses and organizations, while increasing the bottom line.

Multi-Purpose Spoons A word of warning to the more senior readers. Yes, you are getting older. How do I know? I stopped at the Law Library of Hofstra University the other day.

Get Rich Quick Legally – Really! I was visiting a client the other day and had the opportunity to discuss the company’s 401k with one of the team. The team member told me that he couldn’t afford to put money into the 401k. Uh oh. Not that again. This client is one of the few small companies that has…

How Much is Enough? One of the saddest things about the work I do is listening to people who are close to retirement age ask me "How Much Is Enough to Retire?". I am talking about people who are literally in their late 50's or early 60's. These are people who have been working for 30 or more years a…

Head In the Clouds Look, up in the sky. It’s bird, it’s a plane, no, it’s a storm cloud. Sorry Superman I had to change your phrase a bit. I was talking to friend the other day.

Honest Opinion I was staying in a Five Star hotel in India recently. I am not bragging - the Five Stars are important to the story. It's a poor country with limited resources that is reasonably inexpensive. It is also very easy to get sick if you are not careful. I was told it was wise to "Star Up"…

Call me a Heretic Call me a Heretic - I've been called worse. But I just can't be dogmatic enough to believe that every person alive should go to college. I can't bring myself to believe that the only path to financial freedom and personal fulfillment is strolling to the Ivory Towers of Higher Educa…
