I’ve been writing and blogging about ways to save money for almost three years now. It’s something close to my heart as I work through ways to cut more costs in our household. Good money management consists of a few facets, one being saving the money you make. Today, I wanted to show you two…
I wanted to take a moment to share something that happened over the past few weeks. I think it’s very important to hear and hopefully most agree with my stance here. Basically, this is an open letter to my wife (and all moms out there). If you don’t know me, I’m a married father of…
Before you jump the gun and think I was doing something illegal, I assure you, everything was on the up and up. I did nothing illegal to earn this money. It was just a really good month and I used Craigslist to fuel that extra money. I’ve always been a fan of looking around to…
Although most of us are still struggling to stay cool in the hot August temperatures, the fast approaching beginning of the school year tells us those cooler fall days we’ve all been longing for are just around the corner. Fall and spring are great times to try and save money by not running your air…
You might read this title and wonder what a “thriving business” really means. Well, to be completely honest, I don’t know how you define thriving, but I do it in my own way. A thriving business is one is profitable, supports my family, keeps a roof over our heads, and allows us to chase our…
Most of us operate a vehicle on a daily basis, driving from home to work and back again, along with running errands. We usually don’t take much time to think about the maintenance that is involved. As long as the vehicle starts and has fuel, then we’re good, right? We only seem to take note…
I think most women will agree that personal maintenance and hygiene are important for a lot of different reasons. They are important for the health and well-being of ourselves and also of others, and good hygiene impacts our appearance and how others interact with us (because no one likes the smell of B.O.). It can…
Did you know you can actually get some cool gifts just by going to a timeshare presentation? What if I told you that my wife and I took in the sights and a presentation on a timeshare in order to save money on activities we wanted to do when traveling. It wasn’t my first choice,…
I’m sure I’m going to get a few people that say I’m paranoid or a little crazy and I’m OK with that. It’s true, I keep my money in a variety of bank accounts for a number of reasons. I wanted to explain why I do it and why I think it should be a…
I’m going to be the first to admit that I work too much. For years I have been hustling and grinding in order to achieve success. How did I measure success? Money! It seems cliche, but I’ve attributed success with having money. For too many years, I thought having flashy things made me a success,…
The holiday season is in fully swing my friends and the money will be flowing right from our paychecks to the retailers cash registers. So many people spend a lot of money during the holidays. I think the last estimate I noticed was people will be spending on average $800 for Christmas gifts this year! Haha,…
There is nothing easy with business. If you are a small business owner, then you know how much work is involved. I ran my online electronics business for 4 years building it from nothing into something great. I worked from 7am to 3am each and every day in order to succeed with my business. Right before the holiday season, I made a big decision. Read about what I did and why I did it.
