Whaaaaaat??!! This might come as a huge shock to those who know us, what with the recent upsurge in nomadic impulses among Millennials – especially those who, like us, have always loved traveling and are drawn to minimalism. If you were unaware of this trend, just search “nomadic lifestyle” or “millennial nomads” or “digital nomads” …
The most exciting (and most expensive) part of November was our week-long escape to the warm waters of the Bahamas and the beautiful Gulf Coast of Florida. The cost breakdown of that trip can be found here. A quick reminder: these monthly spending reports are an effort to keep myself accountable to the idea that …
I’ll admit it right off the bat: we are really lucky to know lots of people who live in cool places and do cool things and frequently invite us along for the ride. It’s now our firm policy that we say “yes!” to as many invites as possible from our loved ones. I do realize this gives …
So October included a Car vs. Bike Rack showdown. The bike rack won, suffering minimal damage while somehow ripping up our car to the tune of over $2,2oo and over a week in the body shop. We do have decent car insurance, but we are still out the $1k deductible. And after the catastrophe last …
I wrote this almost four years ago, when we found out that we were likely to be adopting C from foster care. You can see all of my posts about foster care and adoption here. We completed a second adoption from foster care a few months ago – and November is National Adoption month! – …

Before diving into this post, read Part 1 here and Part 2 here. In this third post about our operating agreement, you’ll see how we handle money (income and losses) as well as our plans for the depressing events of injury, death, or divorce of a partner. We also made plans for what we will …
If you haven’t already, read Part 1 here. This second post about our operating agreement covers how we assigned rights and duties of our “manager” (which we decided would be one of us) as well as rights and duties of all business partners. Per our agreement, none of us – including the manager – can …
This is what I get asked about the most when talking about my business partnership – this lengthy, complex agreement that took us the better part of a year to put together and is one of the big reasons our partnership has remained strong (and fun) for over 5 years while 70% of business partnerships …
