Secret Obsession: Late Night Coffee Bars

I have a little confession to make. I love late night coffee bars. At least the ones with decors that are so retro it evoke a sense of nostalgia. Even better if they have awesome music, wifi and are sparsely populated so I can get some real work done. It is one of the reasons why I love this City of Angels. You know one of those days when you feel like you are in love with life itself? I used to feel that about New York.

Hello Again, Seven Years Later

Hello world. It's been too long. Looking back at my last post from 2010, I talked about how my finance career is cramping my creativity and general freedom. The good news is, that life is very much behind me. I walked way from it all in 2013 when I choose to living life to the fullest over making money.

Living it & Loving It. Just a brief post to let everyone know I'm back online and in my next few posts, I'll write more about how I am maintaining my current lifestyle, how I do what I do and perhaps the million dollar question that my people who were in the same boat like to ask - should I do it? I think you know my answer to that.
