Yuppie Sherpa

I’m so excited to be writing this first post here at Yuppie Sherpa. This blog is something I’ve been meaning to do for a long time and have put off for various reasons.

But don’t be fooled by the radio, the TV or the magazines
They show you photographs of how your life should be
But they’re just someone else’s fantasy
So if you think your life is complete confusion because you never win the game
Just remember that it’s a Grand Illusion

…
Someday soon we’ll stop to ponder what on Earth’s this spell we’re under
We made the grade and still we wonder who the hell we are

-Dennis DeYoung, Styx

Yuppie Sherpa is a collection of thoughts and lessons on finance, career development, and life as an ambitious young professional. My hope is that others who are not content to settle for mediocrity or nepotism will connect with some of what is written here.
