Boris is Brilliant!

We're gearing up for a camping weekend - the first in a long time - so, the mood around our house is getting increasingly lighter. And, that's all good!

That said, watching the markets take a tumble has left one of us (the principal writer here) wondering and worrying, just a little. My biggest concern, of course, is that this most recent bust will put a crimp in our fulltiming plans. After all, we are fiercely determined to make this dream real. I don't want no stinkin' stock market to delay our plans.

"No worries," Boris said. "Remember our ladder."

Oh yeah. I wrote about that ladder Boris bought a couple of months back: a bunch of zero coupon bonds that are keeping two years of our estimated fulltiming expenses safe and secure. They'll be ready and waiting for us, beginning in February.

I supported the idea back then. Today, I think it's simply brilliant!
