Life in Progress: December 2011
http://chufford.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Attempts to create a life after college. Tuesday, December 20, 2011. Anyone Beta Testing Simple.com? I don't know enough about their business model yet. It sounds like a very customer focused banking solution - basically the entire front end of the bank that you want. But it appears like they farm out the back end. Anyone know how they are making money? Are they making interest off the back end? Borrowing for super cheap rates in order to source out the front end? This is a fine biz model.). Why do I now...

Life in Progress: Chip and Pin Cards
http://chufford.blogspot.com/2014/09/chip-and-pin-cards.html
Attempts to create a life after college. Tuesday, September 02, 2014. Chip and Pin Cards. Do you know what's crazy to me? It's the chip and pin cards that our european counterpart adopted many years ago and have become standard in the EU. If you've been anywhere in western Europe in the last 5 years, you know how difficult it can be (especially outside of large cities) to make purchases with a standard US credit card that doesn't use chip and pin technology. Why don't we get them? Some Guy in Cambridge.

Attempts to create a life after college. Thursday, September 29, 2011. I love reading books on my Kindle. I even made up a song. It goes like "my kindle., my kindle., I love. my kindle. I have read books with backlit screens before and they never satisfied - your eyes just got tired after 30-60 minutes. With the e-ink screens - reading experience is much better. Plus the auto-downloading of books - awesome. So easy to do. I figured out how to download library books - SWEET! My friends put up with a lot.

Life in Progress: June 2012

Attempts to create a life after college. Thursday, June 21, 2012. The whole house buying thing has been stressful, so I've been trying to find ways to work that stress off through exercise. Plus, the cruise to Bermuda was not nice on my waistline. I'm going to stick with yoga for 20 classes. I have 19 more to go before the end of August, which means about 2X a week max, and if I go more, I'll be done with my Groupon faster. Friday, June 15, 2012. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Life in Progress: Buying a House
http://chufford.blogspot.com/2012/06/buying-house.html
Attempts to create a life after college. Friday, June 15, 2012. Somehow making my own soda seems less horrible that drinking the mass produced metal cans of soda. Though, it's not any more healthy with all of the sugar involved. We're supposed to go to a Roller Derby on Saturday - which should be really exciting. I've never been to a roller derby and I'm not sure if I should be scared or excited. It's kind of both. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Cooking - Engineering Style. Some Guy in Cambridge.

Attempts to create a life after college. Tuesday, May 04, 2010. Posted in her blog - and I thought I should post in mine. I've had a lot going on in my life in the last 9 months and writing in a blog has not been a priority. I pestered my boyfriend into running the race with me. We ran last weekend - and I think I almost broke him. Work is going well - it's been really crazy - hopefully I'll be able to say more in a few weeks. Plus I convinced a guy I really didn't like working with that it would be ...

Attempts to create a life after college. Tuesday, September 15, 2009. Can I just say - OMG Mint.com has a fitness tab! I know most of you probably don't have fitness tabs yet (neener neener neener) - they sent me some email asking me to refer it to three friends in order to get it. But it's there, and it's fun, and slightly buggy still. Last month I failed at having a 3 month emergency fund. maybe it takes three months to register it? To anything. But it feels like a short sweet financial check list ...

Attempts to create a life after college. Sunday, August 09, 2009. They've made my childhood horror story into a cartoon! I wonder if desks in public schools have changed at all - they should have tracks now. Do kids even have desks anymore? That was it. No more, no less. Jumbo size was required because, apparently, small fingers require larger instruments than large fingers. Go figure. One day around Easter we were coloring Easter bunnies. I continued to color, outside the lines this time, in silent prot...
