Leave a Comment

So I was looking for wall decorations tonight and found one called eCOWnomics, which I'll probably get at some point.  But these other ones here were pretty much the best I could find.  I'm really impressed that the Richmond Fed figured out how to engage young students by teaching basic economic principles based on their (the students') drawings.

Intro

Leave a Comment
Well, I'm making a blog! It'll probably be mostly about economics and current affairs because I love those subjects so much. Having said that, I'm also aware that not everyone thinks that econ is as fascinating as I do.  In fact, someone once said, "talking about economics is like peeing on yourself: you're the only one who thinks its hot". Now perhaps the reason I'm writing this as my first post and including that picture is to preemptively keep myself humble.  Hopefully I don't get carried away thinking that I'm a great economist and everyone is dying to hear what I have to say next.  It might be better, then, to say that this blog is written for myself, to keep track of my thoughts and writings.  I might even post content from other people that I want to remember and/or thought was worth of sharing. If someone else happens to see my page, then he is free to enjoy it, agree, disagree, comment, be educated, or take whatever he wishes to take from it.  If that person is you, congratulations! I hope to hear from you soon.
