I don’t know about you, but my personal finances are a constant source of aggravation. It doesn’t seem to matter how much money I earn, how much I save, or what happens in the economy around me, I’m always living on the edge. Join me for these articles on business, budgeting, credit cards, loans and other financial matters. Let’s take the trip through the financial minefield together and perhaps we’ll all make it out the other side healthier and happier. Well, one can always dream….

Immediate Payoff From Financial Learning

I found myself browsing old editions of the Carnival of Financial Learning over at Financial Learn the other day and stumbled across his weekly “So You Think You Can Save”contest. Since I’m a (poverty ridden) romantic and last week’s question was about saving on a first date I went ahead and entered.
Well, it turns out I won a $15 Starbucks gift…
Debt Consolidation at Bills.com - Time For A Refresher Course
Posted on September 4, 2008 - Filed Under Personal Finance | Leave a Comment
I first wrote about Bills.com about a month ago when they released their BillsIQ test (on which I scored rather well, thank you very much). At the time, I asked where all my money went, considering I knew so much about staying out of debt. Well, I think my last post answered that ($500 for tickets to Miley Cyrus’ Sweet…

Scooby-Doo Where Are You! premiered on September 13, 1969 at 10:30 a.m., a mere two weeks after I premiered… er… was born, and we’ve had an affinity ever since. When I was a kid, adults would ask me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I always answered: Scooby-Doo! Thirty-nine years later, Scooby is still solving mysteries with ihs…

One of the first hurdles a growing micro-business will face when trying to compete with more established companies is the ability to accept credit card payments. That’s because credit card processing requires a merchant account which are typically too expensive for the micro-business - with set-up fees, terminal lease fees, and complicated small-type ridden extended contracts that seem almost designed…

Looking At Long-Term Investment Results
Posted on August 10, 2008 - Filed Under Personal Finance | Leave a Comment
Last night I stumbled into a conversation with a co-worker on the real-world effects of inflation and how it effects savings. We discussed what savings we’ve done over the last several years and I veered into a tangent about why I prefer to immediately invest my savings in precious metals (gold and silver) rather than hang onto individual bills (mattress…

The first thing you should do when realizing that you need a new widget or doodad is head to the internet and do some research. Once you’ve decided exactly which gizmo you’re going to buy the only sane next step is to look around for a…
So Where’d All My Money Go?
Posted on August 5, 2008 - Filed Under Personal Finance | 1 Comment
Debt relief is a topic near and dear to my heart as many of you know. So when I scored an 86% on the BillsIQ a few of my friends were a bit doubtful that I hadn’t cheated on the test. The Debt help that I need is not in understanding what should be done, but in actually acting in an appropriate manner.
