Retirement Planning Book

I just finished what was likely the best book on planning for retirement that I've ever read... and I've read quite a few.  While it didn't focus on specific investments, insurance offerings, or the like (and I consider that a good thing), it did focus on the need for such things and how to evaluate them for your own circumstances.  It is this type of education that most need and that can then be utilized while working with a well-vetted professional.

Here is the information on the book:

The Complete Cardinal Guide to Planning For and Living In Retirement

ISBN: 978-1-936797-81-3

Snow Murals & Yo-Yo Tricks

Two great videos today from The Huffington Post.  The first is a guy who walks in snow to created gigantic murals with his foot prints.  The second is a guy who is AMAZING with a yo-yo.

Snow Mural

Good exercise and with the use of a drone, he’ll have one amazing coffee table book.

Melisandre Baby Shower

This is not as funny as John Snow coming for dinner, but it is pretty good.  There are a few really funny moments for fans as Melisandre attends her first baby shower.

Power Cat Nap

Mimo the tabby is a serious sleeper.  So serious in fact that his person was able to cover him in stuffed mice toys without him twitching a muscle!  The pictures are priceless.

Addition:  After sharing this with a colleague, I was sent this story of an Australian bandicoot snuggling with ducklings and their mother.  Let the napping continue.
