Very nice and inspiring video.

BDTV S1 – Episode 1: One Seven Eight from Black Diamond Equipment on Vimeo.

Trying to find balance in your life is very important, I very much relate to this, I have exactly the same. Too much perfectionism and trying to go too far. Very good video.

Today I bought 10 Coca Cola shares (KO) , which has produced a nice dividend. And is a bit undervalued at the moment. I intend to keep it for the long run.
Tomorrow I will also add some Unilever shares (UN) depending on the way it goes. It has been a rocky road this week. For me it’s good news as I can pick up shares on a bit of a discount.

On the watch list are Glencore, Caterpillar, Disney, and Unibail-Rodamco. The first being a bit of a risk as it has been in a steady decline since they got listed on the stock exchange.
I will keep you updated.

Short film about Heather “The Heat” Hardy , who lost her house in Hurricane Sandy, very inspiring stuff. Make sure to watch it.

Today we spent most of our time in the swimming pool of the village, it was 30 degrees allready when we woke up and now it’s still 37 (17:28).
The swimming pool has free entry for tourists like us. We got a card from our gasthoff which allows us all sorts of free entry, and free public transport.

So we mostly read and took a dive in the pool. Just keeping cool. Not much happend today. therefore a much shorter post.

The internet is out and about somewehere but somehow my computer doesn’t get any signal. So all my posts are late or will be late.

The first update for the portfolio. This month I added 10 shares from Microsoft and 10 shares General electric.

The reason for both additions is that I think Microsoft is making very good product they pay out a healthy dividend and there is a lot of room to grow.

General Electric might be considered a boring stock but I like boring. The demand for enery will be rising, and they also pay out a nice dividend.

So far so good, I will post an update every month so you guys can see how I am doing, in the meantime I will bore you with other stuff I like to do and share some articles I found on the internet.

If you have any comments please feel free to share them or contact me. Any advise is welcome since I am still learning.

Short documentary about Brett Rivers who made his passion into a way of living, very inspiring !
He found a way to combine his hobby and build a cool shop. Be sure to watch this.

Yesterday we went to see the comedy show by a group called “Oeloek”. It was the last show and it was recorded for dvd and TV. Which means that we will be visible since we were on the front row.

I had never seen them, the start was a bit slow but after 10 minutes it picked up speed and it got funnier and funnier. It’s a bit of an absurd kind of humor. Which I like a lot.
They used the few set pieces in a very clever and cool way. Unfortunately it wasn’t sold out. Which is something they definitely deserve.

So everyone (Dutch speaking , otherwise you wouldn’t understand the jokes 😉 ). go and see them when they will play the new show. Visit the Oeloek website for more info.

I sometimes do a bit of trailrunning myself, not as much as I like too though. Spotted this video on the internet. I always like the video’s on Vimeo. Beautifully shot and edited most of the time.
