Siblings Day & Every Day … Big Sister … Big Help!

RED+BLACK - Big Sister ... Big Help!

In honor of National Siblings Day, we’re “nice” to each other – for the day. (For Red, that means saying something warm and fuzzy, but we all know Black will still be sarcastic.) And even though siblings know how to annoy one another (that’s part of their job description!), it’s good to know they’re there when you need them. And Red will admit that when it comes to life (and especially money), Black’s advice and guidance is, to quote a famous MasterCard ad campaign, priceless.

Curious about the "Back Story" to our animation teasers? Red's daughter, Sawyer, told us we needed to do some very short animated "teasers" … so Black said, "Great. You want to work in video production. Take the final working versions of our animation and start creating them!" So, she did!

P.S. – For those of you who've met us or seen us at speaking engagements, we'd love to know if you think the animators have accurately captured us! (You can email us at Banter@RedandBlackBooks.com.)

RED+BLACK - A Floor Filing System?

Overwhelmed by piles of paper? Well, if you’re like Red, longing for a perfectly clean desk, you might use filing cabinets or, at least, neatly stacked file folders. But a filing system that uses the floor of your workroom? And what happens when you run out of floor space?!

RED+BLACK - All These Missing $20 Bills

Red’s missing money?! Black has no clue what she’s talking about … but it would have helped had Red explained it was the $20 bills she gets from the ATM. The ones that then “magically” disappear ...

RED+BLACK - Only One Doing Anything!

Can you relate to Red’s one-man (oops, make that one-woman) show? And at what point do you ask for help?
