Let me tell a little bit about myself.

This blog is ill-suited to re-sharing other peoples’ content. You know, interesting and/or funny links you encounter throughout the day and would like your friends and family to see, optionally with a comment of your own attached. The thing is, what do you use? Twitter? Facebook? Reddit? Are they on what you’re on?

And one for Bain.

I have electronic records for personal finances dating back to 1997. Much like this blog, it’s had several homes. It used to be in Quicken. Then I moved it to Gnucash. Now it’s in a plaintext format readable by ledger.
