A Quick Update and Some Links

First, the quick update:
Today is the last day of my (paid!) training for working at the WSOP.  I will get a week off then it looks like I will be working full time for the duration of the six week tournament.  So far, so good,  There is a lot to learn about casinos and money and all that kind of stuff but it has been really interesting!  On a less happy (kind of) note, I did not get picked for the high paying job that I was in the running for which I am 20% disappointed about (mostly my ego is not happy about not being chosen) and 80% thrilled about (freedom! yeah!  I won't be locked into a 40 hour a week office job forever.  Whew!).  And that is about all that has been happening around here.

And some interesting links:

• The currency of phad thai (I tend to look at spending money this way, albeit in terms of hours needed to work to earn something, not in meals and hotel nights).
• Creating perpetual prosperity (who doesn't want to do this??)
• Homemade energy bars (these look yummy and they don't have a lot of added stuff in them)
• Budgeting when you are broke (good tips)

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
