From My Two Dollars - view blog entries - visit this blog
January 24, 2008 at 1:30 pm ET I wrote a little while ago about why I was so glad I had health insurance because I was undergoing all sorts of tests for what looked like cancer or leukemia.

January 24, 2008 at 12:00 pm ET Interested in seeing how your tax dollars are wasted?

January 24, 2008 at 10:00 am ET Back when my wife was applying for student loans, she called me in our office one day to look at a website.

January 22, 2008 at 10:00 am ET While there is a lot of talk around the PF water cooler about being frugal & saving your money, there are certain things that I feel it is OK to spend money on.

January 22, 2008 at 1:09 am ET OK not closing exactly, but it sounded cool - several international markets have suspended trading due to dropping indexes:

January 21, 2008 at 11:46 pm ET And how do you see it? Will you buy a lot and hold on? Will it be a fire sale? Or will you start drinking early?

January 18, 2008 at 10:01 am ET Are you truly frugal? Do you buy your clothes second-hand? If you are not into buying clothing at full retail price and enjoy thrift store shopping instead, you should probably check out Swango.com.

I’m sure that if you do any kind of investing at all you have heard about target-date retirement funds, where the stock and bond allocation inside the fund changes as you near your retirement date. All you have to do is pick a year (for me, it is supposedly 2040) and the [...] ... (more) From My Two Dollars - view blog entries - visit this blog
January 17, 2008 at 10:00 am ET So Christmas has come and gone and I am just now getting around to writing about the gift that my grandmother got me - an iPhone.

January 16, 2008 at 10:00 am ET Trust me on this, if you are not carrying health insurance of any kind, you are playing a very dangerous game.

I will admit right off the bat that a lot of people with credit problems will disagree with me on this one, in that they think the best thing to do with a credit card account is to close it immediately when you are done paying it off.

January 11, 2008 at 10:00 am ET “If you pay peanuts, you get monkeys.” - James Goldsmith
Well, there you have it. Business owners, keep that in mind next time you make an offer. In my book, it’s always better to pay good money for better employees, and try to save money elsewhere.

January 9, 2008 at 10:01 am ET Well, after seeing the book reviewed on so many other personal finance blogs, I guess you kind of knew it was coming.
