UB Challenge Update - And Some November Advice

Already completed - and before Thanksgiving too.

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday because you don't have to exchange presents and everyone is doing what they are supposed to be doing: Men watching football - Women in the kitchen cooking and bringing the men beer.

Guys, be sure to show your "lovely and talented" this quote above. They will thank you for reminding them of their place on that day. A gentle reminder she will be forever grateful for. Trust me.

Back to the Challenge. I have to bet at least $9 (which was my entire bankroll on Ultimate Bet at the start of this challenge) every month, and see how high I can grow it in a year. The monthly results are on the right near the bottom of the blog.

After a small losing October, Faldo responded with a profit this month. I considered betting more this month to get to the point where I tripled my bankroll ($27), but hopefully it will come. No need to rush.

Anyway, grew it to over $25 so far. This is Phase I of the challenge and bankroll management is still the over-riding premise here. Risk management comes later.

Now, back to Thanksgiving...a "Kiss the Cook" apron makes a fine present the Wednesday night before her favorite day in the kitchen. Just make sure that in her overwhelming desire to jump your bones after your thoughtful gift, that she doesn't forget that Wednesday night prep is key to a smooth Thursday of work.

If you really want to have her know you care, add some throw away plastic containers and sealing plastic lunch bags in with the apron. Now that shows her you care.

Faldo, always trying to help.
