This week, I will—

discuss aspects of life in Spain that make it better, especially when compared to the United States.

But today, a quick post to detail the personal finance and investing strategy I am using to effectively manage my money and hedge against a weaker US dollar.

I introduced these subjects a couple of weeks ago and want to pull them together today with additional details.
