Poor Dad, Rich Kid
Will your kids do better financially than you have done? The teens in the Academy of Finance intend to do just that. I think this is so good for kids in today's world. You can teach them math and English all day long, but if they can't maintain a good credit rating, get a home mortgage or invest their money, school doesn't give them much of a foundation for the real world in which they'll have to earn a living after you are gone. You can get more information about the Academy of Finance here.

Aren't They Glad They Raised His Pay Now?
A big congrats to Brad Garrett for his Emmy. I don't think most award shows do true justice, but in this case they were very smart (IMHO) to acknowledge Brad's excellent work on Everybody Loves Raymond. (Doris Roberts got an Emmy too--she has such wonderful comedic timing. I'm happy for the folks of West Wing too. I've enjoyed this show so much. I hear that there will be even more "political" shows soon, including K Street.
