Welcome to my corner of the web! My name is JJ and I’m here to offer my wisdom in a variety of interests including:
- Hourly Diary: my time management app for Android which pings you for an update every hour to get an accurate sense of your use of time during your waking hours.
- Personal Finance and Investing: how to get the most out of the money you’ve worked so hard to earn.
- Technology: how to put technology to use to simplify your life and/or save money.
- Life Hacks: DIY tricks that increase productivity and efficiency in everyday life.
Although I hold advanced degrees in both Engineering and Finance, I consider myself an autodidact, a lifelong learner. I read a variety of books on a regular basis and consume a large number of blogs which have shaped my way of thinking over the years including:
- Tim Ferriss’s Experiments in Lifestyle Design
- Ramit Sethi’s I Will Teach You to Be Rich
- James Altucher: Choose Yourself
- Chris Guillebeau’s Art of Nonconformity
My Myer-Briggs Personality type is INTP. Here’s a detailed description. Here’s a more recent but shorter one.
