Talking Money

July 11th 2010 18:24
We never really have enough money. Our earning determines our lifestyle and many live beyond their means. I know people who were downsized and earn less than they did, that hold two jobs just to maintain their lifestyle. Not preparing for emergencies and/or not being willing to cut back on spending can be a disaster waiting to happen.

There are seven radical ways to save money. Garage sales can bring in extra money. Quitting smoking can nowadays save thousands yearly. Carpooling can make the driver money or save the passenger hundreds using their own car. I'm not a fan at buying used clothing. Go out less to eat and entertainment. Rent a room or rent a room with a roommate. I no longer use credit or debit cards, and although it may sometimes be inconvenient, I don't have hidden fees. I just use cash or check.


The thing about saving money is that you can't spend what you save on some other foolish vice. Some must learn the secret to saving money.

I've mention this elsewhere but your best investments at this time are cash, gold and silver. I mentioned that with gold it is better to buy than sell!

Social lending seems to be a growing trend. Of course it does come with risks, but most pale in comparison to other investments. Social lending is a person-to-person lending. More information can be found here.

You're never too young or too old to plan for retirement. Start planning accordingly at any age!

The New Bad News

July 6th 2010 15:58
I'm not a big fan when it comes to investing in the stock market. To hear this analyst tell it, we are heading for a total meltdown when it comes to the stock market. Stocks are always a gamble.

Best Places To Retire

June 27th 2010 12:50
Would you consider retiring in a foreign country if you can live the life of luxury for a lot less? It seems that there are more benefits in most foreign countries than here at home.

The study takes everything into consideration from real estate to cost of living to security and so on. Retiring overseas may not be for everybody, but many may benefit and it pays to consider it.

Saving Zen

June 7th 2010 19:57
Probably the main goal of this blog is to help you save money by any means. Sometimes things may seem repetitive, but if one iota of advice helps you in any way than the mission is accomplished. Things such as correcting bad spending habits or cutting back can save enough to make you financially secure. I see financial security as having money left over from each paycheck and being able to weather any unforeseen storm that may arise.Living paycheck-to-paycheck is not acceptable, especially in today's society. If an emergency comes up and you need to borrow to weather it, then you are sunk, the way I see it.

An easy way to get started is to take little steps and see if any of the tips can help your situation. If you're a college student, you may benefit from these tips

Saving On Groceries

June 6th 2010 19:44
Nothing can eat up money faster than our food bill. For myself, I find that eating the right foods that may be a bit more expensive has me eating less. Thus I actually save. I have a nice pantry of non-perishables and canned foods that can probably hold me over for a couple of weeks without grocery shopping.

Everyone should have strategies when it comes to food and savings. I usually shop two or three different stores to save on items I find in their weekly fliers or online. I always use coupons that can add up to major savings especially if you play the game

Closed Funds That Open

May 12th 2010 15:46
I've made investments in the past and made money. After 9/11 the making money on stocks, bonds and mutual funds changed. Except for a work related investment that I can't take out until retirement, I sold my mutual funds that weren't performing as well at a profit.

But enough about me. I have heard that stock funds that close to new investors run the best returns or sustain the less losses. If they ever open again, it is a good idea to invest in them while you can. As always keep in mind that all investments require risk and it is better to be in it for the long term rather than a quick get rich type of short term investment

Fool's Gold

May 9th 2010 16:29
You see and hear them and they come out full force in 'tough' times. The ads about giving you top prices for your gold items. Many are more than willing to sell all they can to make ends meet or just for the cash. This is a classic case of how a fool and their money are soon parted!

There are TV gold buyers, local buyers and buyers who advertise in newspapers and magazines. Sometimes people find that they may have gotten more money from one than the other. But much like discovering fake or 'fools' gold the rush of money far outweighs the call for wise money that withstands the test of time

Easy Saving Tips

April 25th 2010 16:18
If you're like me or anybody else, you probably aren't saving enough or not at all. As quick as our world is changing, it is getting harder to save and rising prices in everything from fuel to food isn't helping!

Saving is something everyone is going to have to discipline themselves to do. Now more than ever we must distinguish between our needs and wants or else we are doomed to fail
