Double Tagged So I Better Pay Up
There is a book meme going around the internet and I have been tagged not once, but twice in it already - Lynnae at Being Frugal tagged me on Friday and then Tara at Super Mom Saves Money tagged me yesterday. So I figured I better fulfill my obligation and participate before I get tagged again. 
The meme is simple - grab the nearest book that has at least 123 pages, open it to page 123, and count down 5 sentences. Then, type the next three sentences here.
Okay, I have three books in a pile on my desk, so they are all about the same closeness to me.
- Chemistry, Fifth Edition by Raymond Chang
- Raising Your Spirited Child by Mary Sheedy Kurcinka
- Wise Investing Made Simple by Larry Swedroe
The chemistry is to look up values of constants and specific formulas I need while I’m tutoring. The spirited child is a resource for better understanding my son, who embodies the word spirited. And the investing book is for this humble blog, so I decided that was probably the most appropriate one for me to use. So without further ado - off to page 123!
Sherman: I am glad you asked that question. First, it is important to acknowledge that there are always risks when investing. Second, as I told you at our first meeting, everything we do is based on academic evidence, not on my opinions.
So, who is Sherman and what was the question? You’ll have to read the book to find out!
And here’s the hardest part for me… who to tag? I have no idea who has or has not been tagged so here is my attempt:
I have probably tagged people already tagged - I’ve been busy putting together the Carnival of Personal Finance this weekend. Well, if you aren’t tagged, feel free to jump in!

Yay randomness!
I was glad that my closest book actually made sense in those sentences.
