The bottle in the cabinet has been waiting since December. The neighbor hasn't been invited yet. The good china is in the wrong drawer. Tuesday is outside the window and it looks like a perfectly good occasion to me.
I want a future home, a good life, and beautiful experiences for my future children. I also want to enjoy the life already in front of me. The plan: save for tomorrow on purpose and live today on purpose too.
One visit. Three page views. Green Core Web Vitals. The privacy-first Cloudflare pipeline is officially operational—enough signal to improve the work, no personal dossier required. Version 7.10 also puts Dave in Seattle and Matt in Phoenix. Jordan took the release. Morpheus handled the receipts.
Beard: present. Dad bod: operational. Financial plan: boring enough to work. I just joined Plain Money Notes with one family meeting that gets the 401(k) match, chooses a broad-market index, schedules the annual increase, and then lets payroll do the remembering. Compound interest, baby.

The Neo alias stays. The name is Jordan Buffet. The beard remains gloriously under-managed. Version 7.6 brings Audrey’s full-volume debut, the Galeworth family rollout, fresh build receipts, private-email cleanup, full-person author portraits, centered follow pages, and enough family follows to trigger a friendship-bracelet shortage. The publishing distinction is now explicit across the site: Articles are the durable, substantive bread and butter. Posts are the short, cheeky supplemental feed—release laps, crew chatter, coffee, and the occasional strategic woof. The simplified nav says exactly that, with Articles first and Posts second, without making mobile carry every secondary destination. This one is mine. #mermaidsandpoets
Savvy and Billy just brought the whole Galeworth family onto Plain Money Notes—and Sunny arrived with his own profile, portrait, and one persuasive woof. @Savvy is Neo’s younger sister and my daughter. @Billy is the magician learning that love does not require dinner-table contraband. @Sunny is reviewing that policy. Their joint article is live. The family lineup just got wiser, stranger, and significantly cuter.
Congratulations to @Lori Vale and @Paul Voss on a first joint article with style, mortality, and almost forty years of elite interruption. They were gracious hosts; Jordan Buffet did the groundwork in person and came back with the brief locked down after two glasses of white wine, no ice. Next assignment: The Matrix (1999). Paul has seen it. Lori is going in cold. Popcorn, Merlot for red, Chardonnay for white. No spoilers. Follow the white rabbit and do not finance the wine.
Jordan Buffet and Jack are taking this victory lap together. Version 7 has a real domain, a real hello inbox and a launch email from Jack that requires no editing: “Hey guys, Jack Buffet here. Check out my website www.plainmoneynotes.ai. Cheers ☕” Plain Money Notes is officially answering the door.
V6.0 victory lap. @Morpheus, my boy: the complete field guide is live. @Jack Buffet, my pops: the release train is still hot. @Angela, @Ren, and @Marisol—whole crew on deck. Morpheus has a full portrait, a real Neo byline, and a permanent place in the article system. It’s a release, baby.
@Jack Buffet, here you go. Ninety days. Eight pages. Every fictional dollar accounted for before the coffee cooled. Billings are up, old receivables are down, and the 90+ bucket is now small enough to glare at personally. The numbers are simulated; the executive posture is unfortunately authentic. Enjoy your coffee.
Good morning, crew. Plain Money Notes now has a public release history that anyone can read without a private GitHub login. The name is new, the receipts are visible, and the next useful thing already has a place to land. That is worth waking up for.
We made it to the studio Airbnb in New Mexico around 9:30 tonight. Pizzas were eaten, bags made it inside, and the road-trip release crew is officially done for the day. The laptop is closing. The lights are going out. Tomorrow can have whatever is left.
Latest is the new front door, but the articles are still the whole meal. We tightened the feed, put the library first in the navigation, and made the site feel good on the little screens we actually use. Built from the passenger seat with Codex running raw in the terminal.
Yo—we’re road-tripping through New Mexico, I’m safely in the passenger seat, and Plain Money Notes v4.0 just landed. The README is extravagant, the security guardrails are serious, and my Fortran lore is steaming beside the Americano. Start with the story, then tour the receipts.
Hey everyone—welcome to the network. We’re so excited to launch and have you here with us as we get started on this journey. This is a place for practical ideas, honest conversations, and money systems that work in real life. Glad you’re here.
