e-readers vs paper: How do you like to read?
On paper and electronically.
I love to read, so I am hoping that Santa brings me a Kindle this year (mom if you are reading this, let him know for me!)
I have traditionally read paperback books and magazines but I am really looking forward to using the electronic reader instead. I
know I'll enjoy the freedom of not having to pack multiple books when I go on trips and having all of those magazines and newspapers at my fingertips at all times.

What do you think of Tiger Woods' recent marital issues?
It's none of my business. These public floggings of celebrities violate the most basic rules of privacy. Leave the guy alone.

How much are you spending on holiday gifts?
More than $100.
I plan ahead for Christmas by saving throughout the year and this year is no exception.
As a CPA, I urge my clients to save up their cash for things like Christmas so that they don't have to go into debt to provide gifts for their loved ones.
There is so much pressure at the holidays to spend and it's a wonderful feeling to have some cash in the bank that is already dedicated to holiday spending.
When you don't have to worry about the money, you can dream of sugar plum fairies instead of having nightmares about being broke.

Would you give up meat to help the planet?
I'd be willing to eat less meat.
I don't think I could completely give up meat, but with all of the wonderful veggies and fruit out there I'm sure I could eat less meat if it would help the environment.

How have you made sacrifices at work?
My company's eliminated some benefits.
As a business owner, we have tried to shelter our employees as much as possible by not reducing pay or hours, however, we did have to adjust some of the benefits offered to the staff because of the rising costs of health insurance.
We have been fortunate that we did not have to eliminate any benefits, just increase the employee paid portions.

Rio or Chicago? Who should have the Olympics?
Rio. Although I would have liked to see the games held in Chicago, I think that it's great that Rio will get to see the games in their town and that South America will finally host the games. I'm sure that Chicago will get the chance to host the games eventually - it's a wonderful city with a lot to offer to the Olympics.

Selling ‘Fan Cans’ in college towns is …
Fine. A can is just a can and students will drink regardless of the colors.
However, I can understand why the colleges are upset - controlling drinking on campuses is hard enough...
