A good (or better) personal anchor???

I found this buried in another thread and found it interesting enough that I wanted to revive it under it's own post.
Assume I don't like the idea of buying extra gear like a PAS or using daisy's for anchoring myself at the top of a sport route... let's not debate this... let's just assume those options are no favorable to me.
One popular option would be to use a sling - knotted to shorten if required.
But I found another way that seems to provide adjustability with much more convenience (posted by speleodude). It seems much nicer and quite inexpensive.
Basically it's a 7mm static cordlette girth hitched to your belay loop with a prussik tied onto itself providing adjustability - just locker the loop to the bolt, adjust the prusik and get comfortable!
