6 Money Masters You Should Know

Last updated on: October 17, 2011 at 7:00 am By Tim

Mark Twain said this once, “It is from experiences such as mine that we get our education of life. We string them into jewels or into tinware, as we may choose. In other words, we all have experiences that we can learn from or ignore. But what about learning from the experiences of others, particularly when it comes to money?

How Much Do You Spend on Pets?

Last updated on: October 13, 2011 at 7:00 am By Tim

I found this infographic from mint.com and thought it would be fun to share with you guys. I’ve written about the cost of a dog and pet health insurance, so when I saw this, it reminded me of how much pet-loving-people will spend on animals. I’m curious, if you have a pet, how much do you spend on it each month? We budget about $50, but with unexpected vet visits, I’m sure we’ll average around $800 each year for fido.... Read more

Layaway vs. Credit Cards

Last updated on: October 11, 2011 at 7:53 am By Tim

Remember the days of layaway? I remember being a kid and watching my parents put some things on layaway around the holidays. I had no clue why, but I knew that we would come back and get the stuff later. My parents would make the payments and without fail, the toys would be freed from layaway jail. I’m not exactly sure what it cost twenty years ago to use layaway, but I think it’s relatively the same as today. Most... Read more
