July 10, 2008 at 9:58 am ET The standard tip for most services in the US is 15%. Love it or hate it, tipping is how many people earn their living, and it is here to stay.

July 7, 2008 at 10:20 am ET Last Thursday I wrote an article about food stamps in America and how many people who rely on on food stamps are struggling to make it through the end of the month before their aid runs out.

From CashMoneyLife - view blog entries - visit this blog
July 1, 2008 at 7:44 am ET When I first found out about peer to peer lending, I was excited about it, and I read everything I could find about the industry. Then I wrote several articles explaining the P2P lending process, and answered the questions, is P2P lending safe and are P2P loans are guaranteed?
After getting my initial P2P investments in [...] ... (more) Monday, June 30, 2008 Great Ways to Save Money on Gas (1 click)

June 26, 2008 at 12:56 pm ET I went to lunch with a couple former coworkers the other day and we discussed the current issues at my former company.

June 20, 2008 at 7:40 am ET Two weeks ago I wrote about the Blockbuster Total Access free trial offer which is currently available.
