22 Nov 03 : 11 | re: The biggest mistakes poor people make This is all nonsense. When you say poor, mean it. Obviously none of you have ever been really poor. When you don't have any money you don't have the luxury of using most of these suggestions. "Live in a cheaper place" forinstance. I live where I do because it is the only way to get to...

21 Nov 08 : 35 | re: Worried savers are stashing cash in the ground Social Security is not something you pay into and get back with interest. It was supposed to work that way but a Democratic Congress destroyed that many years ago and made it just part of the general fund. It is just another tax that goes for right out the door for Congressional pork barrel... Source : Smart Spending Blog - MSN Money - All Comments |
20 Nov 02 : 33 | re: Should you take a second job? I just finished up with a parttime job that lasted 3months. I got it from a friend of my boss- who was looking for someone temporarily til he got around to hiring a fulltime person. I worked 10 hours per week, after my fulltime job and on Saturdays. My boss NEVER offers overtime and he knew... Source : Smart Spending Blog - MSN Money - All Comments |

15 Nov 17 : 33 | re: Underwater, but she's riding it out I'm so relieved to see a reasonable, thoughtful person in my same boat! I read a lot of personal finance blogs and the judgmental tone about those of us who are underwater is hurtful. There seems to be a general sense that we were all financial idiots who jumped blindly on a bandwagon, got... Source : Smart Spending Blog - MSN Money - All Comments |

11 Nov 02 : 52 | re: Will Americans learn to love the new dollar coins? Canada switched to one dollar coins in 1987, and two-dollar coins were introduced in 1996. I don't remember anyone complaining -- save for a general wave of annoyance when V 1.0 of the toonie kept falling apart. (That was, eventually, fixed.) The reasons for the switch made sense: the coins lasted... Source : Smart Spending Blog - MSN Money - All Comments |
05 Nov 15 : 33 | re: Are the media being drama queens? The media LOVE to incite the masses into thinking things are falling apart. A major national newspaper had a giant headline of "Is this worse than the great depression", and open the second page to continue the article, "no this isn't". Was it necessary to pretent to announce a depression on the... Source : Smart Spending Blog - MSN Money - All Comments |
02 Nov 14 : 18 | re: The best advice for living below your means I'm sorry. I know this will sting a bit...but never go to Wal-@#$. Go to smaller discount chains such as Family Dollar or Dollar General instead.
