After dealing with multiple rounds of repairs on my ten year old Honda Civic, I decided that enough was enough – I was going to sell my car. The only catch was…that I wasn’t going to buy another one. Even though a lot of people are giving up their cars nowadays, the majority of American’s…
Do you have debts that you are considering paying your debt off early? Everyone wants to be debt free (well most of us do), but did you know there are some cons to paying off your debt early? Depending on your situation, paying it off early could damper your financial situation, so make sure you…
I was lucky enough to be able to try out a new service from TransUnion. I will disclose I was provided the service to try and review. This review is based on me testing the service and my opinions are my own. If you aren’t familiar with TransUnion, then let me give you a quick…
There’s a dirty feeling I get every time a check comes and I see that stupid tip line. I’ve never like tipping, not because it’s rewarding those who do their job well, but because it’s how employers use customer’s tips to pay their staff. There are many people who think tipping is good, but also…
T-Mobile is at it again with a great new promotion for those looking to save on their monthly cell phone bill. T-Mobile now is offering their Family Plan up to 4 lines for only $100 a month. Yes, for you math geniuses, that is only $25/per month per line. Now, you can really only get a cheaper plan on Republic Wireless, but this is going to be the next best thing. I just wanted to share this with you as I know a lot of my readers like to save money on their cell phone bills. I do to and that is why I review so many services. Anyway, here is the gist of the offer.
In my free time over a week ago, I went to a friend’s wedding. While it took me away from the act of moving into our new home, it was a nice opportunity to relax and wind down for a bit. I don’t get many opportunities to do that much anymore. My wife was in…
You have probably heard of the saying “money talks!” If you haven’t then it is a simple premise. If you have money, then you have power and influence. The more money you have, then the more power and influence you have. We see this premise in action everywhere really. It really shows up in business and politics. I figured I would share a story with you that would bring home this phrase. You probably don’t need a story to understand that money really does talk, but you are getting one anyway. This is about a co-worker that was deep into politics, so much that she was planning a career switch.
Over the past decade, more and more people have found themselves deep in financial debt. While there may be some obvious reasons why some people have gotten into debt, there are also many other overlooked factors that could have led to their accumulation of debt. I have spent a good amount of my adult life in debt. I know how it feels. There is nothing fun about it, but that doesn’t mean it has to define you. Remember that you are the one in control of your money, so don’t let it take control of you. We all make mistakes and debt should be one that you only make once. I don’t plan on making the debt mistake again, so I hope you do the same.
You Can Save While Paying Down Debt! I know this is a cliche topic. Most will tell you that you should stop saving when you are paying down debt. Why do they say this? It is simple. The math isn’t in your favor when you take time to save. Debt usually comes with high interest…
So, you want to know how to get rich quick? Doesn’t everyone! I wanted to write this to show you how you can get rich quick and live the life you have always wanted. You might love those late night infomercials telling you that if you buy their book or course, they will show you how to make so much money that it will be mind boggling. The only problem is that those people are the only ones getting rich quick. I am going to show you the real truth about making money fast.
I’ve long been a proponent of Amazon for buying all items for my house and generally everything. I was an Amazon Prime member for years because I liked the convenience of Amazon and the Amazon app. Unfortunately, my stance on Amazon has changed slightly for my personal buying decisions and I wanted to explain here…
Happy Father’s Day! I hope all of you get to celebrate with your family and maybe have a chance to relax. I know I will be having fun on my golf weekend, but I will miss the opportunity to celebrate Father’s Day with my dad. It upsets me a little bit because as a new father, I would love to celebrate with my father. Oh well, there will be others. I am taking this time to write a letter to my father. I hope he gets to read it.
