The English Need Payday Loans Too

Posted on November 10, 2007 - Filed Under Personal Finance, Reviews | Leave a Comment

I received an email last night (well, I guess it was actually morning his time) from a regular reader in the UK asking about my actual experiences with Payday Loans. It seems I regularly post that I’m considering (or am) taking one out, but seldom post the results. I’ll try to do better on that in the future.

Laughing at my PF Blogging Heroes

Posted on March 23, 2006 - Filed Under Personal Finance | Leave a Comment

I’ve only been reading personal finance blogs for a few months now, but they frequently make me laugh (in ways the author did not expect). For example, today Jonathan at MyMoneyBlog, posted about saving $250/yr on haircuts, and received 25 comments in about 18 hours. I just had to laugh.
Why? Because I haven’t had my hair cut (period) in about 3 years. Simply can’t afford it, and don’t bother finding someone to do it for me. Most of my friends…
