Straight Talk Review – Bring Your Own Phone and Save

ByGrayson Bell 08/24/201402/04/2015

I have been testing out the Straight Talk service for a little bit now, so I figured I would post a review of how it has been going. There have been many questions from readers in regards to this topic, as I am sure many have been wondering how to get away from the big carriers, AT&T and Verizon. Since I am using the Straight Talk bring your own phone program, that is what I will be reviewing. Straight Talk uses SIM cards that are compatible with either AT&T’s or T-Mobile’s network.

See.ing Smartcam Review – Wireless Monitoring Camera

ByGrayson Bell 08/01/201404/23/2022

There is a new product on the market to jump into the wireless monitoring arena. DXG has created their See.ing Smartcam product line to compete with the likes of Dropcam and D-Link. I enjoy competition as it allows for people to make an educated guess on what is the best. I have had a Dropcam for some time and have enjoyed it. There are some quirks, so this See.ing Smartcam review will be based on a comparison between the two.

First, let me give mad props to my fellow personal finance blogger, Holly of Club Thrifty, for rocking a Wall Street Journal essay and a Fox Business TV interview. She was dealing with the topic of money and marriage. This is a very controversial topic in the world of personal finance and I understand why. I wrote about it briefly some time ago when I was talking about paying off a spouses debt when they incurred it before marriage. That one got me some angry comments and emails, but I powered through. I don’t mind causing a little controversy. I read both the arguments on the WSJ piece and I am going to provide my argument for separate finances for married couples.

Why Do We Fall For Ponzi Schemes?

ByGrayson Bell 09/16/201309/16/2013

I wanted to write this article as a follow-up or add-on to my “How You Can Get Rich Quick” article I put up last week. My idea for this is to try and figure out why we, as humans, fall for Ponzi schemes. I have a ton of questions and can only think of a few things that can explain why people jump into such schemes.
