The Travel Clock Waits For No One

The Travel Clock Waits For No One

In the last post, I talked a little about the importance of consistent travel throughout your life (and regrettably, how I failed to follow my own advice). Don’t make the same mistakes. As the years go by, your opportunities to build travel friendships, travel...
So I Waited Longer To Travel Than I Should Have…

So I Waited Longer To Travel Than I Should Have…

“OK, I admit it. I goofed.” Where has the time gone? There are a lot of reasons (and excuses) for why it has taken me so long to do the one thing that makes me feel happy and right (besides being with friends and family, of course). I don’t honestly know why I ignored...

Review Of IRS Rules For Deducting Travel

I’ve been doing some more research on what the IRS says you can and cannot deduct when you travel.  This is important to know so that you don’t run into trouble when tax time comes.  I have a trip coming up in June and I want to find out if any of the business work I...

Make Money The Old Fashioned Way – Earn It!

In a previous post, I mentioned the idea of creating a product of your own and putting it up for sale.  Ebooks are a good way to earn extra income.  I’ve bought quite a few of them and I feel like they all (except for one) have been good value.  The best thing about...
