I’ve written that I spend a lot of time reading financial news, watching financial news on TV or YouTube or other websites and honestly it has become too time consuming to catch up so I finally decided to do something about it. I used my new, second, AI agent and tasked it with reviewing 65+…

Follow Up On My New WiFI Router
With so many new computers active on my home network largely due to the addition of AI related hardware, my WiFi was slowing down and everyone at home was complaining about it. I asked AI and it told me to replace one of my routers. I ordered a new router from Amazon, AI’s recommendation, but…
My Autonomous AI Trading Bot Made $359 In One Week
As a follow up to building my first autonomous trading bot post, I can now report that the bot made $359 in one week. Keep in mind that this is paper trading and not real money but the first week result is impressive and my plan is to let this run like this for a…
Managing AI Costs With OpenRouter.AI
I am in the process of building AI agents to do various tasks as I’ve outlined in a post I wrote recently but cost is now starting to become an issue. The all-you-can-eat model was not going to be sustainable and the more popular AI becomes the more demand and the more cost. It’s no…
I Built A Second Hermes Agent On An Old Raspberry Pi

Apple’s WWDC Was A Joke
I had such high hopes for Apple’s WWDC and it was a total joke. The conference started with gimmicky liquid glass. Who cares about liquid glass? Apple, you are a trillion dollar company and the best you can come up with is liquid glass? Siri is now Siri AI which looks an awful lot like…

100 Days of Non-War War
Today marks a milestone, the current administration of the Unite States has now been 100 days of non-war war with Iran. I’m not going to go political here since this is a personal finance blog but I am going to discuss the impacts of this non-war on our household budget. Fuel The first and obvious…
Corporate Cybersecurity & Accountant Nazis
Yesterday I wrote a post about how I’ve had it and I am leaving the corporate world with a key insight and thesis: Corporate America will implode within 5 years. The cause? Cybersecurity and accounting over bearing policies and protocols. I won’t get into all the details here as I exit corporate America but I…
