Maybe that’s what I get for going to a school that is 90% Jewish :D.

What a great idea! I think hearing “the other side of the story” will had such a wonderful perspective–and help a ton of other couples out there who might see themsevles through your posts.

Fantastic!

Thanks, with a little searching I found a site that could help me. Since it was originally a PDF here's the Google Cache version It made it a nice two keystroke solution.

Another trick that works is to create and keep a file of special characters in Notepad and cut&paste the ones you need when you need them. If you can’t create them at all, cut&paste them into your file from websites. Cut&paste will work with special chars even if your keyboard can’t create them.

It’s horribly inconvenient, but works even if you don’t have the right type of keyboard or native charset settings.

I’m not stewart, but I can tell you how to make an é. If you have a keyboard with a keypad on the right side, you hold down the left “alt” key and while doing so type 0233 on the keypad. If you have a laptop, God help you.
Actually no. If you have a laptop, hold down the “fn” key, the left shift key, the left alt key, and then press mkll (or whatever key combination has a little 0233 on the front side of the key). Whew! Try being a foreign language major.
I’m excited to get her viewpoint. Don’t think I’d ever let Mr Dimes type though. He’s pretty anti-blog.

Thanks. It was actually her idea. I’m pretty excited that she’s taken an interest in personal finance. If only I could get her interested in football, I’d be all set. ;-).

Savvy Stewart, how do you type that accented “e”? I’ve tried Googling and really haven’t been able to come up with a general solution – just stuff for Microsoft Word and other specific applications.

That’s awesome. Looking forward to some of her posts. I don’t think I could ever get my fiancée to write for my blog. Maybe once we’re married.

Congratulations to the addition! It would be interesting to see how different you two are in managing the money, given the different backgrounds.
