You buy a knock off Coach purse or Prada hand bag for $30 and no one is the wiser. What does it matter? Well, aside from ethical considerations, there is a lot at stake [...] ... (more)

I finally got my flu shot this week and I didn’t have to pay for it. In fact, the nurse was even kind enough to give me a piece of candy and a colorful band aid! I think getting a flu vaccination is very important, and I have had a flu shot pretty much every [...] ... (more)

This video shows an ATM scam in which a thief reprogrammed an ATM to dispense four times the normal amount of money requested. The ATM machine was programmed to “think” it had been filled with $5 bills, not $20 bills. Nine days passed from the time the ATM was reprogrammed until the theft was discovered. During [...] ...

I don’t know about you, but I have one room in my house that just doesn’t get warm in the winter and it will not get cool in the summer. The room is situated directly above our garage so I think that may play a role. The room is our computer/guest room, so we spend [...] ... (more)

My first foray into investing began when I opened an IRA at age 19. I didn’t know anything about stocks, bonds, or mutual funds, so I placed the money into a Money Market Account where I probably earned an astounding 3.0% return on my money. About a year later, I went to a broker who [...] ... (more)

Last summer I successfully challenged my property tax assessment and won! The process was very simple, and is something everyone should look into doing if they own property. The result can possibly save you hundreds of dollars! This was my situation: My wife and I finished our basement last year. When we hired the contractors to [...] ... (more)

Every elementary school student in the US is familiar with the famous quote attributed to Ben Franklin - “A penny saved is a penny earned.” This statement may have been true once upon a time, but in today’s world, a penny saved is worth more than a penny earned.
