Greetings from Scottsdale, Arizona, where I was delighted to be asked to speak to a group of financial advisors and CPAs at the annual Sports Financial Advisors Association.

It was an enjoyable and successful six days in New York City, but I’m glad to be back in Florida for a few days before I head to Pittsburgh and Scottsdale next week. Today, I’m off to Gainesville for my annual trip to a Gators football game. Unfortunately, the team is on a mighty slide […]
Happy November to everybody. I had a blast last weekend in Jacksonville for Florida/Georgia, and while the Gators did not win, the defensive line looked amazing. I believe we are the highest ranked two-loss team in the initial College Football Playoff ranking, so that says a lot about what Dan Mullen has been able to […]

I’m excited about the new project and have […]
Nothing like having a full vacation planned only to find out mere days before leaving that the very first leg of your trip has been cancelled. Yeah, I had to deal with that a couple days ago when the airline decided to just scrap my flight, the only flight of that day and the only […]
I feel like I have been going at 100mph since coming back from my Honeymoon in January, so thankfully I will be heading on a couple week vacation at the beginning of July. Thus, expect a short moratorium from the weekly wrap-up during that period. Things are going very well at the law firm as […]
It’s been an incredibly sad week in the aftermath of the shooting at Stoneman Douglas high school in nearby Parkland, Florida. I commend all of the students for speaking up to share their thoughts on what can and should be done in an effort to prevent these types of tragedies from recurring in the future. […]
Happy birthday to me! I turn 33-years-old today, a far cry from the 21-year-old who started this website. This site and I have done quite a bit of developing over the years, and hopefully that will only continue into the future. I’ve been doing a lot more posting over on my LinkedIn page as of […]
