Don’t want to be a richer man”
Actually, unlike David Bowie, I WOULD like to be a richer man. Also unlike Bowie, I can’t issue ‘Bowie Bonds‘ in order to raise money. Instead, I’m trying to monetize my blog more effectively. I’ve actually approached Mrs. Micah through her BlogCrafted site in order to make a number of changes to my blog. Some will be cosmetic (like putting up a new theme) and some will be more functional (changing how I go about monetizing my blog, so I can start to make more of a profit from my efforts). The end result will be a more interesting, more useful, and more profitable Amateur Financier.
The big change over is currently scheduled for Sunday, so watch this space for a new look and feel to my blog. Onward now to my financial report:
As you can see, I’ve also switched up how I’m doing my weekly update posts. Rather than type out my finances each week, this way I can put the new numbers in a spreadsheet, and have all the calculations I want to run done for me. Spreadsheets are always fun.
There’s not much change this week; I added my more money to my savings and my investments went up, for an overall increase in my net worth. Given the current financial environment, I didn’t get much of a boost from interest payments on my savings,but with any luck, that will change soon. I’m happy with the progress I’m making.
