It is only fair since I have been known to write rants about such corporate giants as Walmart, I should let it be known when I am pleased as well. Last week, my six year old daughter and I were shopping for paint as I planned to paint our basement before the end of the month. Since it was the basement, I was not planning on paying top dollar for paint, and Walmart fit the bill.

Now I have been to stores all around our area for paint – Menard’s, Lowe’s, Home Depot and Walmart – and…

It was about crazy interview questions from a variety of businesses, including Google, Proctor and Gamble, and Goldman Sachs.

I’ve been writing articles here about veterinary medicine. I guess today I’m going to write about the vet.

I’ve read there is a Chinese blessing and a curse, “May you live in interesting times.” I chose veterinary medicine because of my love for animals and because it…

I just found this blog on smaller indiana so I thought to share one of my favorite tax tips to see how the SI blog works. 

This is really very simple.  Lets say you give $3,000 per year to your church and you have $3,000 of stock that you paid $2,000 giving you a $1,000 unrealized gain, (it is realized as soon as you sell it.)  If you were to sell your stock for $3,000, you would have a $1,000 gain subject to a 15% federal income tax, and an Indiana 5% (for simplicity) income…
