Investment Advice

By , August 8th, 2006

I met up with a friend this weekend along with a group of his friends who I didn’t really know. When they found out that I write about money matters and personal finance, I received the question that I almost always receive: “So, do you have any hot investing tips?” Now I know what they [...]

Financial Bulimia

By , August 7th, 2006

Do you suffer from Financial Bulimia? I think it’s an interesting definition for a way some people spend money. I’d never heard it before, but I came across it at So Now What?: Financial Bulimia.

Learning From The Pro

By , August 4th, 2006

I’ve never understood how the coupon people are able to get those really great deals. Even when Flash explained her $330 In Groceries For $27 I still wondered if there was some type of trick to it which would keep the average person from getting these deals.

Emigrant Improves Sign Up Process

By , August 3rd, 2006

While there were a lot of complaints about the Emigrant system in the first few days after their website overhaul, one thing that I haven’t notice anyone report on is that Emigrant actually made a huge change that makes opening an account vastly easier.

Jobs That Cost Nothing To Start

By , August 3rd, 2006

I had a discussion with a friend this past weekend. He was trying to convince me that in order to start a business today, it costs a lot of money. While I will concede that it can cost a lot of money to begin a wide variety of businesses, there are also many that can [...]

Yahoo Ads Experiment Update II

By , August 3rd, 2006

I mentioned earlier that Yahoo Publisher Network ads were performing so poorly on our grocery coupon guide site that it only took a week to realize we needed to switch back to Google Adsense. That was definitely a smart move because earnings immediately shot up. The other site we decided to experiment with, frugal gardening, [...]
