Back at it again.

Well it's been too long.  I started this blog back in 2009 and never did anything with it, but I think it's time.  Have you heard of Mars One?  About the coolest project in human history.  Apparently this Dutch Corporation is about to start accepting applicants for a one-way trip to Mars.  They're going to send four explorers every 2 years beginning in 2023, with the final purpose to colonize Mars.  Seems to me like their primary intention is to generate a media frenzy, create reality TV, and turn it into a complete spectacle.  Check out www.mars-one.com and watch their video.  Tell me why or why not you would want to go on a one-way trip to Mars.

My First Blog.

So, My first blog. Well to start off with I'm James, from Portland, Oregon. I am a father of 2, with twins on the way, and I work a job that doesnt allow me too much time with my family. I enjoy my career but wish I could spend more time with my kids. SO naturally, when these Google Home Business Kits started popping up claiming you could make thousands of dollars a month with little to no effort, I was interested. I'm glad I did my homework, because anytime there is GREAT returns with LITTLE invested, it is too good to be true. Robert Heinlein said it best... There is no such thing as a free lunch. SO if you wanna get rich, dont believe the hype. Find a job, spend less than you make, and sock away the excess in a savings account, 401k, or invest it in some type of fund. Please stay tuned, and add my feed to your reader, as we'll be discussing food, wine, economics, nature, and any other damn thing that comes to mind. Also, I'm new to all this so if you can come up with any advice for me, I'd love to hear it. Leave a comment, let me know what you think, and help me drive traffic to my blog.

THANKS
J. Young
