Just because you can post anything, doesn’t mean you should. If this is your first visit to my blog, Yoast would want me to make some carefully chosen recommendations.
I started this blog in 2005 after hand coding a homepage for a decade. So I have some thoughts on how to make a blog better. In the over twenty years I’ve been building and maintaining websites I’ve encountered a lot of difficulties many of which you can avoid if you make some smart decisions and stay disciplined.
It took a lot of time, effort, discipline, and sacrifice but I managed to complete first an MBA then pass all three exams in the CFA® Program. As a result I’ve written more than a few posts on venture capital, financing, and entrepreneurship.
Over the years I’ve lived abroad four separate times. I lived in Nuremberg for a couple months during the dot.com era working on a German e-commerce website. I then taught English in Japan and China. This has resulted in a lot of posts about living, traveling, and working in China and elsewhere.
