To revisit the Rolex commentary from a previous post. Last year (I just found this out), the Rolex watch that Steve McQueen owned was sold at auction for $234,000.00. (To read more of the story you can click here.) Now we know that it sold for so much due to the fact that Steve McQueen owned it, but this story proves several facts.

First, a Rolex increases in value. Secondly, its value rises especially high when owned by Steve McQueen.

Lastly, men should always wear a classic time piece that is as classic as they value themself. The value of a watch, is like the heart of man – completely in the eye of the beholder. I believe Steve McQueen was a classic… and that Rolex he had was too!

Drop of the Dollar

If you’ve ever wondered why the dollar is weak look at the chart. In 1913 there was very little supply of cash money, so its value was higher. In 2009, we live in a world of the exact opposite.

The dollar has become “cheap”, which is what anything is, when you have too much of it.

Google Toolbar

In a new story from The Register (click here for the full story) there is proof that when the Google Toolbar is disabled… that it is still sending tracking data back to Google.

The author Ben Edelmen is a noted critic of Google the article says, and it also says that Google is updating their toolbars to correct this.

Even though they are correcting it; I still don’t trust toolbars…
