The Bailout Sleuth has a link to the Bailout Game, which was created by Minnesota based Blue Earth Interactive. I haven’t played it yet but apparently, you get to be Secretary Paulson and Fed Chairman Bernanke, guiding them down Wall St. giving away money. I haven’t played yet but apparently the goal is to get across the board without running out of money. Sounds better than the Wii I’ve been jonesing for! The game can be found at http://www.thebailoutgame.us

Over at Small Business Trends, they have a post this morning on the Top 10 Trends in Managing a Small Business. A couple of interesting ones. You’ll note I mentioned Fresh Books in a previous post. I’ve been using this more and more as its a pretty good tool for time tracking and invoicing. Also includes an interesting insight into the increased use of bartering for small businesses. As an FYI, my services can be bought in exchange for fine wines!

For those of you interested in a change of life style, Business Pundit has a link to what is being called the best job in the world. Apparently, Australia needs someone to manage an island; yes the pay and benefits beat working at the Vann Group!

Lastly, its January, so that means American Idol is back. MSNBC has a hit list of Simon Cowell’s best one liners in a previous post. ]]> http://blog.vann-group.com/wanna-be-hank-paulson/feed 0
