Música, películas y libros

Best movie of all time: The Big Lebowski
Best band: probably Led Zeppelin (though in into everything from house to smooth jazz)

Books: Half the reason I like traveling is that it affords me time to read them.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Lost 22-0 to the Japanese ice hockey team,

It was the most spectacular ass-kicking of my life, we only got 2 shots on goal.

Some Accounting and some International Business:

Observing a foreign country 101:

Don't get so caught up in taking pictures that you forget to observe with you own eyes the very things you wish to capture with your camera. The pictures never do it justice anyway...

Accounting for Depreciation 101:

If you have a choice whether to depreciate an asset sooner than later, always choose the accelerated method.

As depreciation acts as a non-cash expense, it will reduce your income. More specifically, it will reduce your taxable income thereby DECREASING the amount of taxes you pay that year.

Given the choice between receiving this tax break now or the future, the correct choice is clearly now (assuming the tax rate is fixed). This is do to the time-value of money which essentially says that money is better now than in the future.

Who wants to give the government more money anyways...
