Sustainable.REALITY: Want to stop consumerism? Brag about your net worth.
http://mysustainablereality.blogspot.com/2011/02/want-to-stop-consumerism-rag-about-your.html
Want to stop consumerism? Brag about your net worth. Why is it that we buy, and buy, and buy, even when it's detrimental to our financial situation? There are probably a number of factors, but I think it's due in part to the competitive element in human nature - we want to compare our own success to others. The problem is, we have no good. For now let's just admit that whether right or wrong, most people measure their success and relative progress in financial terms. Minus what you owe. In our minds, we ...

Sustainable.REALITY: February 2011
http://mysustainablereality.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
You have to start somewhere. Just start. To borrow a really good phrase. "Here goes. ". AKA My official start as a co-author of this blog. ). Sad but true: if all the insects in the world were to die overnight, the Earth's biosphere would not survive. If all the humans in the world were to die overnight, the Earth's biosphere would once again flourish and thrive. So, having, for better or worse, been born a human not an insect, what is one to do? You see where this is going. So the idea for this blog is ...

Sustainable.REALITY: A glimpse at what it really takes
http://mysustainablereality.blogspot.com/2011/05/glimpse-at-what-it-really-takes.html
A glimpse at what it really takes. I recently traveled to an ivy*-covered town in upstate New York for a professional development program. Ithaca, NY, is home to several post-secondary institutions, most notably Cornell University. I didn’t know that it is also home to a remarkable leader in the sustainability movement and that I would have the chance to work with her and her organization during my stay. Approach. Where other organizations focus more narrowly on environmental issues, or social justic...

Sustainable.REALITY: Personal Sustainability - My relationships with Society, Economy, and Environment
http://mysustainablereality.blogspot.com/2011/02/personal-sustainability-my.html
Personal Sustainability - My relationships with Society, Economy, and Environment. I started Sustainable.REALITY to explore sustainability in a broad sense. With an eye to how I can - realistically - strive to make my own life "sustainable". But what does that really mean? So what is "sustainability"? Since I have been thinking about it so much lately, I made a radical move. I looked it up. According to Wikipedia (as of writing, anyways) sustainability for humans is " the potential for long-term. The uni...

Sustainable.REALITY: Dividend Investing is NOT "Passive Income"
http://mysustainablereality.blogspot.com/2011/02/dividend-investing-is-not-passive.html
Dividend Investing is NOT "Passive Income". Another blog I follow, TSI Network Daily, discusses how to know how many individual stocks should be in your portfolio. As usual, their advice is simple and wise. But they, as with nearly everyone else who I've seen post on this topic, miss one key point: the impact your portfolio size has on your time. A portfolio of 30 companies represents 30 companies' news to follow, 120 quarterly statements to analyze, 30 annual information filings, etc. That's a real trad...
