Daring Book For Girls



I'm eagerly awaiting The Daring Book For Girls which will be released on October 30th.

I purchased The Dangerous Book for Boys shortly after it came out and pored over it for days, calling out to Paul every so often "Come look at this", "This is pretty neat", "I can't wait to go through this with our kids someday".

The book for boys covered so many things necessary for childhood fantasies: building a treehouse, making slingshots, folding the best paper airplane, tying knots, morse code and so much more. I wouldn't limit yourself by the titles, since I liked treehouses and strong knots as much as my brother ever did. I'm hoping The Daring Book for Girls covers as many adventurous things as the boys book, and it's not too girly-girl. As long as it isn't a dissertation on tea parties, it should be just about perfect.

New Book : Smart Women Finish Rich

Started reading Smart Women Finish Rich this week, it's pretty good so far. The stats in the first chapter are a bit frightening though. I'm hoping that within 5 years we'll be in great financial shape. I'd like to be able to start giving my dad money each year to invest and build a portfolio. Of course, not knowing the first thing about investing I figure I better start doing my homework...
