I had the opportunity recently to order business cards from Print24. When I first went to the site I was taken back by it’s really old design. The colors are way too bright, and the overall look of the site is just too busy and confusing.

It was rather hard to navigate and I got confused several times on how to actually order, but I did finally figure it out. I used one of the free designs that they offer, but you can upload your own custom design file. When I got my business cards I was quite happy with the design quality and the overall quality of the cards. It was very surprising though because I never expected such nice cards to come from a site like that. They could use some design updating, that’s for sure.

I really do like my business cards though. They quality and print is really nice, and they came fairly quickly. Print24 not only has business cards, but you can also order address labels, stickers, mouse pads, postcards, and more. Hopefully with a few reviews out now that all basically say the same thing about the design, they will consider modernizing it a bit.

I’m documenting all the pictures of Tony giving the “bunny ears” to famous people on this post titled Zappos Bunny Ear Madness, and Tony gave me permission to add the latest photo to it, so go check it out!

Serena Williams Comes To Zappos

There was a one hour interview on CNBC with Warren Buffet, the third richest man who has donated $30 billion to charity. Here are some very interesting aspects of his life…

1. He bought his first share of stock at age 11 and he now regrets that he started too late!
2. He bought a small farm at age 14 with savings from delivering newspapers.
3. He still lives in the same, small 3-bedroom house in midtown Omaha that he bought after he got married 50 years ago. He says that he has everything he needs in that house. His house does not have a wall or a fence.
4. He drives his own car everywhere and does not have a driver security people around him.
5. He never travels by private jet, although he owns the world’s largest private jet company.
6. His company, Berkshire Hathaway, owns 63 companies. He writes only one letter each year to the CEOs of these companies, giving them goals for the year. He never holds meetings or calls them on a regular basis.
7. He has given his CEO’s only two rules. Rule number 1: Do not lose any of your shareholder’s money.
   Rule number 2: Do not forget rule number 1.
8. He does not socialize with the high society crowd. His pastime after he gets home is to make himself some popcorn and watch television.
9. Bill Gates, the world’s richest man, met him for the first time only 5 years ago. Bill Gates did not think he had anything in common with Warren Buffet. So, he had scheduled his meeting only for half hour. But when Gates met him, the meeting lasted for ten hours and Bill Gates became a devotee of Warren Buffet.
10. Warren Buffet does not carry a cell phone, nor has a computer on his desk.

There is a company called ShareInAFrame.com that will purchase stock for you like disney stock, or harley davidson stock, then put it in a frame that you can hang up. Isn’t that a neat idea? What a great gift, that will always increase in value over time. It’s a gift that keeps on giving.

You could give a disney share to one of your Disney Freak friends, and you know we all have at least one of those, right? HA! There is no broker fees, and their stock prices are updated daily. They only charge a small transaction fee, and a small fee for the frame. They even will engrave a plaque with three lines of your choice, free of charge, that will be displayed on the frame.

I think this is such a unique gift idea. I love it!

But he was planning on giving them his two week notice because he didn’t think he could swing his junior year and hold down a job. So in the end I guess it worked out for everyone. Just last night he was thinking about applying at the video game store though, because he said he’s going to miss his paycheck. He’s got some decisions to make.

But today, as I was digging a story on digg.com, I came across another story that was on time.com about the Worst Jobs in America, and being a grocery store worker was one of the TOP THREE! I can’t wait to show him when I get home. Maybe getting fired out of that business at an early age is a blessing in disguise.
