   "You do not understand me. You do not take me seriously. You only pay attention to me when you want something.  That is when you caress me and hold me tight.  That’s not good and I don’t like that feeling.  Do not get me wrong, I love being held and caressed, but not just for your own capital gain.”     “You confuse me to no end. I do not know where you are half of the time.  You seem to get lost quite a bit.   You never let me do what I want to do. You haven't always been there for me. Where were you when I wanted to go on that vacation? But I do appreciate you. As life goes on, I am really going to need your help. I do hope we can become closer as time goes on, and I do mean closer.” “Hey, look, I know I can be difficult sometimes, which can be all the time. It is not easy to understand how I operate, but you should try to understand me.  Do not worry though I will be here for you. If you keep making smart decisions and working hard...

6 Steps to Debt Reduction

You gotta love America´s education system: 12 years of primary and secondary schooling and most of us never learned to budget our money. It´s not rocket science, but it´s one of those things that just aren´t very fun, almost like starting a diet plan or attending traffic school. What´s more, many banks and credit card companies pounded consumers with aggressive marketing campaigns to try to convince them to sign up for their cards, oftentimes using an assortment of gift incentives and bonus reward programs. So don´t feel bad if you got yourself into a credit card nightmare. You´re certainly not alone. But what´s important now is to figure out a plan to get out of debt. Here are seven easy steps to jumpstart your debt reduction plan. Step 1: Make a list, check it twice Get a blank piece of paper. On the left hand side, write down how much money you earn each month. For spouses, this may include both of your “take home” payment amounts. On the right hand side, list of all your cr...

Saving with Coupons

Image
Okay, I know we all hate clipping coupons.  But, do you know or realize how much money you can save from clipping coupons?  You can save a great deal of money for you and your family.  All it takes is time...a few minutes out of your day to clip coupons.  When you receive what we all call junk mail in your mailbox, to be honest, it's not really junk mail.  If you look at it in a different light, it's money saving mail.  Companies and businesses don't put those mailers in the mail to you just for the sake of it being junk and being wasteful, they put those mailers together as a way to get you to save money and to advertise and market their products and services. With the economy being what it is and money being tight in some families, clipping coupons will not hurt to do in order to say money.  Think about it, you may have a family vacation that you want to take, or you are looking to save for your children's future, or you just have some purchase y...

Debit Card Fraud: Is Your Money at Risk?

Debit Card Fraud: Is Your Money at Risk? by Amy Fontinelle Monday, March 29, 2010 provided by (I) Investopedia Debit card fraud occurs when a criminal gains access to your debit card number and, in some cases, PIN, to make unauthorized purchases and/or withdraw cash from your account. There are many different methods of obtaining your information, from unscrupulous employees to hackers gaining access to your data from a retailer's unsecure computer. When your debit card is used fraudulently, the money is missing from your account instantly. Payments you've scheduled or checks you've mailed may bounce; you may not be able to afford necessities, and it can take awhile for the fraud to be cleared up and the money restored to your account.
