    5 Things the World Cup Teaches About Life!

    June 17, 2018

    Waka waka eh eh!!! Tsamina mina zangalewa!!! This time for Africa!!! Shakira Shakira! “Takes headphones off”. Oh hello – it’s you again. Pardon me there, I got carried away – the World Cup is on you see. The four-yearly event has come around and landed in Russia, hands up if you’ve been watching it! MrsFrugalSamurai and I certainly have been – more the case of me forcing her to watch that is. “Come on babe! Egypt versus Uruguay!!!” “Uruguay… is that a fruit?” Blank expression. “N…no dear… it’s a country…” “In Europe?” Geographical ignorances aside (my apologies on her behalf to all our Uruguayan friends), the World Cup is THE…

    Caution to All Passive Index Investors – Beware the High Winds!

    June 4, 2018

    Hai guyz! What’s happening? How was your weekend! Enjoy the winter chill much? Yesterday was pretty insane, waking up at six in the morning so I could be chasing little kids around the park (I’m a soccer referee). The wind chill and gusts felt like playing in a gale on the Arctic Tundra. In fact, it was so bad at one stage that the pegs holding the goals down snapped off and the goals flipped over themselves (they were the fancy mobile goals). Immediately after that, I made the decision to call the game off. You should have heard the reactions from the parents when it happened. “WTF TheFrugalSamurai, don’t…

    Champions League Final Proves That Everyone is Human

    May 27, 2018

    Some moments in life will remain with you forever. Those mere seconds are enough to change your life and perspective. In the wee hours of this morning, I watched the finale of the grandest of club football (soccer) competitions – the European Champions League Final. For those who don’t follow sports, or follow football in particular – the champions league final is the creme de la creme of world soccer. It is watched by billions around the world and this year, two pedigree clubs – Real Madrid and Liverpool took each other on after a grueling season. Although I don’t support either team, I still got up early in anticipation…

    Side Hustle Idea – Refereeing (4 Reasons To Do It)

    April 9, 2018

    What’s up guys! Boy, am I flushed ladies and gentlemen. Just finished an intense weekend running around chasing after underage boys and girls. SAY WHAT?!!! No, no nothing malicious or criminal. Nothing like that, let me explain. I’m a level 4 Football (soccer) Federation Australia referee (the lowest level but a level nonetheless!) What that means is that on weekends, when the football season is on – I’m usually shivering my butt off on some wet and cold field early in the morning trying to bring some order amidst the chaos. Harder than it sounds amigos, hard than it sounds. And not just one game too… usually I’m there for…
