My wife and kids are off visiting our relatives in Tokyo, and so I’m at home alone for the next couple weeks, reliving my bachelor days for a little while. Plenty of cold pizza for breakfast!
In place of the usual ritual of bathtime and bedtime stories with the kids (is there anything cuter than a three-year-old in a tub of bubbles?), I’ve lately had more time in the evening to sit down and noodle at the family finances. This got me to thinking a little bit about the various ways people do this—or don’t—and how it might affect investment behavior.
