Read MoreI just got word that my pub. date is moved back to March, 2015. Man they’re slow. I also just got an email from one of my favorite writers saying she is giving up writing fiction because she can’t make a living at it. Ain’t right. Guess it’s a tough business.
Read MoreOne long take to explain why I sit at a desk always looking out at water, no matter where I am, scribbling away: as a kid, primarily playing sports year around, I hid from my jock friends that I didn’t watch tv but, instead, read books.
Read MoreThe Millenials, age 15- 24, are predicted to be worse off, financially, than any previous generation: lowest life-time earnings, relatively, and few benefits from employers (if they can get hired).

Read MoreTimothy P. Munkeby is an author and speaker on financial and career literacy living in Minnesota. Look for his books Back to the Island and If I Had a Million Dollars.
I write to consider how we all might best shuffle through the world's waltz without stepping on each others' toes. Of course, I must also entertain or all is for naught.
