There’s been a dearth of posts lately at Money Musings, and this will continue for a little while. Part of the reason for this stems from my outlook on things: I’m staggered (and not in a good way) by what I see going on around me. Economically, politically — you name it. <\/p>\n

Lately, I just don’t know what to say. My years of IYM and Money Musings admonitions to get people to save their money, to spend carefully, are countered at every turn by the folks at the controls of my country. It’s become painfullly obvious that “doing the right thing” financially simply means that in this game, you<\/b> are the sucker at the table.<\/p>\n

Discouraging? Yeah. Just a little.<\/p>\n

Additionally, as Blogger is soon ending its support of FTP publishing, I’m now making a transition. Money Musings will become a WordPress blog here shortly. Commenting on new posts should be greatly<\/b> improved for readers. On old posts, though … well, I haven’t decided whether I’m going to convert all the old posts into WordPress or leave them as is (minus commenting ability, as that relies on Blogger), and simply use WordPress for the new stuff from this point forward.<\/p>\n

Decisions, decisions.<\/p>\n

It’s quite possible that my blog’s RSS feed will be changing. If that’s the case, I’ll be sure to make note of it here (before Google\/Blogger nixes FTP on May 1) so that those of you who wish to do so can update your feed readers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
