Happy Father’s Day! I hope all of you get to celebrate with your family and maybe have a chance to relax. I know I will be having fun on my golf weekend, but I will miss the opportunity to celebrate Father’s Day with my dad. It upsets me a little bit because as a new father, I would love to celebrate with my father. Oh well, there will be others. I am taking this time to write a letter to my father. I hope he gets to read it.

It’s Monday and I think I am going to go a little personal today. The purpose of Debt Roundup is to show you that we are all human and we make mistakes.

No matter where you turn, you see people telling you to do what you’re passionate about, have fun, make money, and live your dreams. All of those things are great in theory, but not everyone can earn money from something they are passionate about. That’s why we have hobbies. Luckily for me, I did find…
If you forgot, Father’s Day is this Sunday, 6/18. I don’t think much about gifts for Father’s Day because I have a hard enough time to come up with gift ideas for my birthday. As I have grown older, I have enjoyed spending time with family over the material gifts. So, I like the experiences and…

Who said blogging doesn’t amount to anything? Well, I can tell you that blogging not only changed my life by allowing me to pursue a passion of mine, but also let’s you travel the world! Win-win if you ask me. My wife and I got to spend 5 days down in Jamaica for a blogging…
