  • Debt Management Services - A Closer Look
    A common misconception regarding the problems associated with overextending ones finances is that it's the result of easy credit. I want to smash that idea here and now because it's not easy credit that's the problem but more specifically it's a behavior or lack of discipline problem. Sure, the convenience of having credit and being able to buy now and worry about how you'll pay for it later is a temptation but it's still no excuse.
  • Long Term Care Health Insurance - A Closer Look
    Kids today face an ever growing number of temptations ranging from drinking and smoking, drugs, gambling and pre-martial sex. Unfortunately, due to their youth and inexperience they fail to realize that what they do in their youth can have a great effect on their quality of life as they grow older.
  • Mortgage 101 - Rational Decision Making
    A big part of getting approved or rejected in the mortgage process lies in your ability to make rational, unemotional decisions. It's essential that you separate yourself from the emotional issue of getting a house and approach the whole process like a business.
  • Credit Card Terms And Conditions - A Closer Look
    It's sad but today most credit card companies are devious and they've designed everything possible into the fine print of their terms of service to catch you. Therefore, when looking at any credit card offer, make sure you take a close look at the fine print.
  • Cash Advances And Credit Card Checks - A Closer Look
    Chances are you own numerous credit cards but you may not have realized that they offer other methods of extending you credit. One such alternative is the credit card check. Not commonly used but it does have its place in certain circumstances. Another commonly used method of extending credit offered by the credit card companies is the cash advance.
  • Investing Psychology - Know Thyself
    America will continue to be the land of opportunity and regardless of what course our economy takes over the next few years, it's likely that investment opportunities will be numerous and attractive. Companies driven by the ever increasing advancements in technology will emerge, while older companies, out of necessity, will come forth with new products. One industry or another will enjoy a boom period relative to the rest.
  • Debit Report - What Is It And How Does It Effect You?
    Few consumers are aware that there are companies tracking all of their personal financial transactions – bankruptcies, credit cards, installment loans, mortgages and judgments. On the other hand, unless you were raised in a cave you've heard of a credit report and most likely understand that it's a record of all of your purchases.
  • Insight Into Trading - What Percentage Of Your Trades Are Winners?
    An Inquiry into Trading Systems, Money Management and the Human Psyche

  • Factors That Trigger Credit Card Rate Hikes
    Are credit card companies trying to scam you? On the one hand, they provide a valuable service that gives you the added convenience of being able to purchase items and services you need and sometimes don't need and to pay them off in a manner that best suits you.
  • Credit Card Payment Holidays - Blessing Or Curse?
    If you have a credit card (most Americans have over 10) then you've probably received an offer called a "payment holiday". You'll receive a letter that says something to the effect, "That because XYZ Credit Card Company understands how difficult it is for some families around this time of year to make ends meet (or whatever other excuse they can come up with) that you are being given the opportunity to take a month off from making your monthly payment as a 'special gift' and...
  • Credit Card Interest Rates - Why It's Important To Understand How They Work
    Einstein put it best when he said, "Compounding interest is the greatest mathematical discovery of all time". Now the question you need to ask is, "Do I want this force working for me or against me?" If you own a credit card and you carry-over balances from month to month then you've got that amazing force called compounding interest working against you.
  • Investing - How To Profit Using Formulas
    A classic Wall Street yarn, concerning a young man who was in the early stages of learning to be a professional speculator goes something like this. The young man had a problem, so he went to an elderly gentleman noted for his shrewd investment judgment, for advice. The young man had taken on quite an extensive line of stocks, but the market looked a bit over-valued and so he was thinking that his positions carried too many risks. He wondered if he shouldn't perhaps sell.
  • Investment Formulas - What Purpose Do They Serve?
    What exactly does a formula do? A complete detailed explanation can be as vast and complex as each individual investor and is beyond the scope of this article but a brief summary of a formula's usefulness would include the two primary functions it fulfills.
  • Important Questions To Ask When Choosing Insurance Coverage
    When was the last time you sat down and actually thought about your insurance coverage? Let's face it, it's not exactly on the weekly "to do list" for a wide variety of reasons and so… it's not surprising that many are caught unprepared when an emergency happens.
  • Unconventional Home Business Financing Alternatives
    While unconventional financing can cost you money in the long run, it does allow you to avoid borrowing money as a loan that needs to be paid back... whether or not your business makes a profit. With the alternative financing options presented here - if your business fails, your obligation to pay back the money expires. These alternatives, to heading down to your local bank or credit union for a personal loan, are venture capitalists and so-called "angel" investors.
