get rich slow: sharebuilder

In the days of way back, I was a huge fan of The Motley Fool. Now that they are nothing more than an ad for newsletters, not so much. However, The Motley Fool did clue me in to Sharebuilder, an extremely useful wealth building tool. Sharebuilder is basically a dividend reinvestment plan* […]

sucker of the week™ - abu dhabi

Prizzo Skeezy readers down with the Countrywide (CFC) debacle will recall Bank of America (BAC) provided them with a two billion dollar capital injection (like a meat injection, except with cash money and no messy clean up) a few months ago. As part of that operation, BAC gained the right to convert the shares […]

bring the motherfuckin’ recession

I had the misfortune of being at Lenox Square - a major regional mall in Atlanta - yesterday. While the Apple store seemed pretty happening, the rest of the mall was deader than a freshly grilled Bubba Burger (i.e. about the same size crowd as usual). In contrast, the mainstream media (MSM) keeps […]

chasing yield: holy shit buffalo is cold

People who give financial advice never shut the fuck up about emergency funds. I agree the concept is fantastic, but where the hell am I supposed to come up with three to six months salary to put in? Also, my traditional savings account currently yields less than the rate of inflation - making […]

reorganizing to focus on our core competencies through leveraging diversity to create synergy

“Life ain’t nothing but bitches and money”– N.W.A.
While it has been fun living the $30,000 millionaire lifestyle and hanging out with Atlanta’s doucherati, the time has come to move on. Based on our new market driven business model, we will be right sizing and leveraging technology to concentrate on bitches and money, a.k.a. the […]

penguins at the igloo

I highly recommend catching a Penguins game at the Igloo. Hurry up, as a new arena is planned to open in 2010. Nothing against shiny new arenas, but they have all the charm of a major regional mall.

august henry’s review

For my final dinner in Pittsburgh, I stopped by August Henry’s. While there, I had an East End Big Hop, the worst beer of my stay in the PGH. East End Big Hop might also be the most disgusting beer I have ever sampled. Shit tasted like butt sweat off a […]

six penn kitchen review

The day after the binge at the Ale House, my hungover ass paid a visit to Six Penn Kitchen for lunch. The restaurant was in a great loft style space with excellent fucking ambiance. Fortunately, all this ambiance was in Pittsburgh so no condescending hostesses gave me shit about rolling up unshaven, unshowered, […]

ale house review

As mentioned previously, the bartender at the Grille on Seventh recommended I mosey on down to the Ale House to continue sampling tasty brews. The Ale House is a cleverly hidden hole in the wall on Market Square. One has to be looking to find it - had the previous bartender not mentioned […]
