Each quarter we like to highlight an App of the Quarter in our Newsletter … This Quarter, as a sneak preview, we did not pick an App, but a SUPER handy piece of hardware, that has saved us a ton…. We will divulge next week!
Donald “The Brain” with a Black Eye?
What’s the only thing you really don’t want to have when your having a photo shoot?
How about a Black eye!
In a “You cannot make this up way” The Brain arrived in Dallas yesterday morning for a record breaking fast whirlwind tour photo shoot, then flight back home – with non other than – you guessed it …. A Black Eye!
Thanks to an opponent softball player’s wild elbow while turning the base, The Brain had a nice shiner ….
Jen’s continued baptism was in full force as the waterproof cover-up was handy … no more black eye! Sorry folks, a perfect photo moment was lost as they both knew I would want a pic, and they waited until a much needed gas refill was occurring – rats, missed it..
Photo shoot done!
Hmmmmm …. Why the photo shoot?
Well, we cannot say for about three more weeks, but when we can – WE WILL – LOUDLY
Travels
As you read this I will likely be in a plane with the 13 year old, headed to a National Tennis Tournament in a warmer state, where “What Happens There, Stays There” … 100+degrees will feel like summer again ….. All Good!
The end of the THIRD – yes – third quarter, of 2018, is next week — it goes fast…. spend time with those important …. talk to ya next week!

Q 4 2017 Newsletter
International Market Analysis
In a quest for value, it may be appearing overseas with our friends across the pond. Our core article of the newsletter discusses P/E Price Earnings along with the more smoothed CAPE or cyclically adjusted price earnings which is just a 10 year average ratio. With multiple looks at a long awaited possible long term positive trend, the next 3-5 years may be in the corner of our overseas friends.
Tripit our App of the Quarter
After stumbling upon a neat app from a dear friend, “Tripit” makes our app of the quarter. Bet you have no idea just how many different reward programs you are involved … after loading them into our app of the quarter, your life will be easier. Constant price reviews after the purchase along with multiple handy reminders may make this a fun – non financial review and item for you to try out this quarter.
Equifax Update and To Do’s
Our most popular posts on street-cents.com our blog, was the discussion of the Equifax breach. Our theme “Chillax” if our information had not been comprised before, it will eventually. The best defense in this case is an offensive preparation, BEFORE the next breach.
Break In: Yahoo announce after our discussion much more information had been compromised than originally thought …
Not IF, but WHEN our information is compromised …
1 Minute Video Reviews and Screen Shots
With tons of fun and compliments, our half dozen set of 1 minute video’s also make the Newsletter. If you like to talk like I do, full appreciation for just how hard it is to make a 1 Minute video… haha

Parting Thoughts
Shhhh, we have a secret that we want to tell, but are forbidden for a couple of more weeks. We will only say it is an honor!
Watch for a reminder of our hopefully awesome Saturday Before Thanksgiving-Early November 18 Holiday Party at the Dallas Arboretum from 1-3 pm and free reign of the park until 5! Fun times !!!
Thanks for the time!
