Karine and I had the opportunity to take a once-in-a-lifetime 10-day trip to Oahu and Maui. Our little one is now 20-weeks along and it’s hard to know when we’ll have the opportunity to take another trip like this again. We had a fantastic time. Here are a few memories from our trip:
I wear many hats. One of those hats is serving as a coordinator for Financial Peace University (FPU) classes at my local church. Yesterday, Dave Ramsey’s team hosted a webinar announcing the 2012 edition of Financial Peace University. The 2012 edition will not be unfamiliar to anyone that has previously taken the class, as Dave’s …
I was running a cross promotional campaign for my company’s daily email newsletter, ARN Daily, this morning. Almost immediately after the campaign email was sent out, DreamHost’s data center had an outage, rendering the campaign almost useless. This is the latest of many issues that I’ve had with DreamHost, unfortunately. I have a couple of …
Several months back, I wrote about my paid email newsletter called ARN Daily in a post called “How I Developed a Paid Email Newsletter to Diversify My Business’s Income.” Since that post last spring, the number of subscribers to both the free and paid newsletters has easily tripled.

I had a fantastic time attending the summit and enjoyed great fellowship with other attendees. A few weeks after the conference, a …
In the last couple of years, there’s been a renewed interest in time management, productivity improvement and task management tools. A lot of us are getting far more email than we can handle in any given day and find ourselves faced with an increasingly long and never ending list of tasks to complete. Some people …
I’ve recently started a new website around the niche of peer-to-peer lending, P2PLendingNews.com. The site itself isn’t entirely new, but it’s new to me. It was originally setup in April 2007 by its previous owner during the initial period of excitement around peer to peer lending before the SEC came down on Prosper and Lending …
Starting a business can be a very lonely affair. This is especially the case if you’re a single founder and aren’t working with a team to develop your product or service. When I got into business in 2006, there wasn’t much of an online community for solo-entrepreneurs and lifestyle business owners. During the last half-decade, …
I’ve been running an information marketing company for the last four and a half years, but it wasn’t until three months ago that I started developing an email newsletter for readers of any of my websites. I had always gotten plenty of web traffic from other sources, was doing fine revenue wise and didn’t see …
