Cars aren't that big a deal to me, so I've held off on purchasing a new one for as long as possible. Frankly, I've got better things to do with my money than to buy something that loses value the moment I drive it off the dealership lot. Unfortunately, the 1988 Toyota Camry I've been ...
I'm heading into the final semester of my MBA program, which means it's time to start the job hunt. This is not something I look forward to, as there's a lot of stress involved in the process. I have to make sure my resume is perfect, I have to type up different cover letters for ...
You can only hope that when you find someone to spend your life with that you have found peace, harmony, love, and understanding.

I'm usually pretty good about sticking to my monthly household budget. I try to calculate fixed and variable expenses as accurately as possible, and then weigh those figures against the salary I expect to earn. Most of the time, I come out okay, with a little left over to put into savings. Recently, however, things ...

We're all taught early on that we need to save money for when we retire. This is a lesson that is hammered home time and time again in any kind of Consumer Ed or Basic Finance class that we take in high school or college, and is further promoted by financial consultants, Human Resources liaisons, ...
If you book a vacation that is supposed to be all inclusive, there are a few things that you should know. Though for the most part many things are taken care of for you, most people find that they wish they had thought ahead and known a few things before they left. These are not ...
An old friend of mine that I had not heard from in nearly 20 years called me up the other day and we talked for several hours. He said he had just been thinking about me and some the good times that we had had hanging out in high school, and just wanted to see ...
If what you hated about school was being graded at every turn for how well you did or didn't do, the prospect of receiving your free credit reports (and credit score for between 7 and 15 dollars) must feel like class quiz all over again. And like with school grades, if you have unsatisfactory results, ...

My 8-year-old son is going through a phase where he wants to try out every single sport there is. Last summer, he joined soccer and T-ball teams, while the fall was reserved for basketball and Pop Warner football. I think it's great that he wants to see for himself whether or not he likes these ...

America's roads are full of the walking dead - or rather, the rolling dead: cars that are long past due for the graveyard, but are sold on by unscrupulous used-car dealers at full used-car prices. These aren't simply old hulks that are past their prime though. The Cash for Clunkers federal program had specific rules ...
