Our cherry parfait roses are coming in more pink and white, with a hint of cream, rather than a stark red with blinding white. It could be the particular genetic makeup of this individual cherry parfait rose bush, or it could be temperature and sunlight dependent as some roses will bloom differently depending upon the…
DetailsOne of the few, big lessons I constantly hammer home is that money should work for you. It is a tool. You should not sell too much of your life for it in the form of time. You should not trade your integrity for it. In a prosperous society, money proper doesn’t even really exist;…
DetailsWinter white honey – remember that phrase and start buying it now because it is among the most delicious and amazing honey varieties in the entire world. The name winter white honey comes from the color of the honey, which is derived from the wildflowers in the Rocky Mountains of Idaho that the honey bees use to create this nectar. It’s white and creamy, not yellow or amber. The flavor is unreal. None of us have ever had anything like it. We opened a bottle and soon everyone was laughing and dipping spoons in eating it like candy.

DetailsThey are growing! It’s working! The pink rose bush released a flush of roses today after only having one or two flowers, which I had cut for my desk. It’s gotten much bigger than it was only a week ago. I wasn’t sure if it would work in the spot because it isn’t getting as…
DetailsHere is a great question about first home buying and what to expect … Dear Joshua, I’ve learned a lot over the years reading your content, and I value your in-depth research and nuts-and-bolts discussions on a lot of the subjects you talk about. With that, I have some questions about home ownership. My wife…
DetailsYesterday was reasonably productive, but not in the things I needed to get done. I blame the rose project. My obsession has grown to the level of total infatuation. It’s a thing now; just like investing, cooking, writing, and music. At least it’s not a really expensive hobby like horse racing. To give you…
DetailsMy morning was spent reading the New Hampshire Bar Journal, Winter 2010 edition because I was interested in a piece by Joseph F. McDonald, III called Migrating Trusts to New Hampshire: The “Why” and the “How”. New Hampshire, along with a very few other states, allows the existence of something known as a “silent trust” or “quiet trust”.
