Originally published in May 2020 With every new job, relationship, habit—you name it—I consider learning in baby steps. You didn’t pop out of your mother’s womb knowing how to walk, much less run, did you? First, you lay there, for months, before rolling over, then crawling, then pulling yourself up, before you wobbled a couple of steps and everyone around you cheered. You got goose eggs on your head and bruises on your knees, falling down and tripping for years to come, but eventually, you got the hang of walking and now you probably take for granted how much easier…

A new crop of airport lounges is putting food at the forefront. Around the world, first and business class lounges are trading tired buffets and plastic-wrapped sandwiches for freshly shucked oysters, celebrity chef-crafted tasting menus, and cocktails that are anything but boring. Forget food on the go—next time you have a layover at one of these airports, be sure to bring your appetite.Heami Lee The thrash of travel makes one crave the comforts of home—and this modern, spacious lounge meets that moment with wall-to-wall wood paneling, deep lounge chairs, cushy upholstered sofas, and plants everywhere. Areas are separated by wood…

Not to mention that the resolution itself seems to amount to a kind of failure: “I haven’t been able to do this (yet).” 🫠 It’s true for most of us, whether you usually set intentions or not, that the New Year’s resolution is embroiled…

Here’s part two of my trip report to South Florida. Part one covered how my family and I traveled from Toronto to Florida and how I almost missed my cruise. After a quick visit with my sister and niece at the airport, I grabbed our three (3!) bags from baggage claim and called the hotel shuttle. We were only in Florida for 12 hours, and since we arrived so late, I wanted an airport hotel. I had originally booked the Delta Hotels by Marriott West Palm Beach using one of my free Marriott nights from my Marriott Bonvoy American Express…

We may receive a portion of sales if you purchase a product through a link in this article. January always invites a natural pause. While every day offers the chance to begin again, there’s something grounding about the collective reset of a new year—the sense that we get to choose how we move forward. After plenty of trial and error, I’ve learned to let go of detoxes, cleanses, and rigid routines in favor of something far more sustaining: intention. A flip of the calendar doesn’t erase the complexity we carry into a new year, but it does offer perspective. January…

In July 2009, I started Financial Samurai to make sense of the financial destruction unfolding at the time. I had been toying with the idea since 2006, when I graduated part time from UC Berkeley’s business school, but kept kicking the can down the road. After losing around 40 percent of my net worth in just six months, losses that took a decade to build, I realized it was now or never. I promised myself I would publish three times a week for 10 years. When I reached that goal in July 2019, I simply kept going. There are too…
