Interesting CF Blog

I came across this blog a couple years back. It's run by a young finance VP for a F500 company. It's mainly a "day in the life" type of deal, and he is kinda sporadic about when he posts, but I have been fascinated getting an insight into what life could be like in Corporate Finance. He recently started blogging about his success principles, giving advice on how he got so far at a young age. This blog really influenced my decision in choosing CF as the path I wanted to take with my finance degree (I'm graduating in May and entering a F200 FLDP). It showed me that life in CF can be very rewarding and very interesting. Because the blog was so influential to me, I just thought I'd share it.

Let me know your thoughts! I have my guesses on which company this guy is with (or was with when he wrote his bio).
