Anyone else have a problem with this besides me? I did a double-take today when I saw that Leona Helmsley, the hotel magnate who kicked off last week at age 87, left 12 million bucks ... to her dog! Granted, it's her dough, but how would you feel if you were one of the grandkids who got a big fat goose egg laid on them, but Fluffy takes the cake?

At least she had some dough to leave behind. But what about you, bub? Are you deep-sixing your consumer debt and saving your moolah so you have some to leave to the yung 'uns? Are you following the Baby Steps so you can invest and change that family tree of yours?

If you are, kudos to you. If you ain't, then quit wasting time reading my blog, baby. Make it happen.
