On Saturday, I purchased $2,008 worth of electronic Series I savings bonds, which should post to my TreasuryDirect account later today.

Even though I could certainly think of other ways to spend (or save) that money, I figured it was time to jumpstart my 2008 New Year's resolution, and this amount seemed fitting.

Welcome! Thanks for visiting.

This is the United States of America. Yes, we've got problems, and yes, we've got challenges. But if you look back over the history of this great nation, there have always been problems; there have always been challenges.
