As much as my well-diversified portfolio has taken a hit, it is comforting that the same old basics still apply: stay out of debt and save for a rainy day.

Been Googlin'

I googled my name, and my siblings names, to see what I could see:

• Joel Marr: Joel Marr is a rather famous horse trainer from New Mexico, and he dominates that namespace on Google.
• Jon Marr: My brother's design studio shows up 4th on Google(!), beat out by a physicist and a misogynist.
• Julie Marr: The first Google entries takes you to a scenic painter who worked on Enchanted.
  
• Jason Marr: A software engineer in Cupertino and an actor in Portland dominate this namespace.
• Jeff Marr: I actually show up second, because of my LinkedIn entry. A loan officer took the top spot, however.

Conclusion: Linkedin is a cheap way to improve your Google ranking.
