After using AI to save $1000 on a new network at home, I decided to use some of those funds to build me a home AI lab. It was a rough start which you can read about here but I now have my lab fully operational but I am still tweaking a few things. My…

New App: Bond Portfolio Dashboard
I’m going to sound like a broken AI record but AI has done it again. I built a bond portfolio dashboard for one of my accounts in less than an hour. The hard part was getting the data together because I had quite a few bonds in this account. I will need to do the…
Using AI As A Constructive Criticism Agent
I have been building a variety of tools over the past few months largely to help me with my investment portfolio and personal life but in this post I am going to tell you how I’m putting some of it all together although this is just going to be one small piece. I recently built…
Exercised $25,000 In Puts
Not all trades are winners and that’s ok but the important thing is that your trades don’t lose you money and that’s the case today with Etherium and Bitcoin ETF trades I made a while back. Options expiry is tomorrow and I had hoped these digital currencies might rally but it was a bridge too…
Will Gold (Jewelry) Put You In Danger?
The current price of gold as I type this post is about $4500 an ounce (~$145/gram). A typical gold wedding band has about 3 grams of gold so if you’re walking around with your wedding band, you are flashing a small portable easily steal-able $435 object.

I Inherited LP Albums, AI Built Me A Database
A friend recently had a family member pass away and as a result they needed to get rid of stuff. I was asked to help and came across hundreds of LP albums destined for the trash and was asked if I wanted them. I decided to take the albums but I wanted to know what…
New App: Video/Audio Transcribe & Summarize
A while ago I built a YouTube summarizer app that has been working great. Saves me a ton of time from “watching” YouTube videos and instead gets summaries of all relevant information. I use it to catch up on opinions on the economy, stock market, precious metals, and other things I trade or invest in….
A Sinister AI Future? AI Eat AI World
Years ago I read this article about Amazon supposedly stealing small business ideas and creating their own products. As I’ve been playing with AI and creating my own world of apps custom tailored to me something terrifying occurred to me. As more and more businesses use AI to help them aggregate data and run their…
Mind Map of AI and Me
I have so many things going on right now that I had to stop and take a breather and reflect on all the stuff AI has helped me do the past year but much of this stuff is that last couple of months! The most important thing for me are the Apps I’ve been able…
