What is the #1 Cause of Death World Over?

What is the #1 Cause of Death World Over?

If you guessed Heart Attack then you were correct.   That muscle in our chest that does its job day after day, year after year, decade after decade is an absolutely amazing organ.  But we so often forget that it too is a muscle that needs to be cared for.  Conditions exist that cause the arteries [...]

Spring Cleaning - Wasted Life!!!

Spring Cleaning – Wasted Life!!!

Spring is arriving and with spring comes that annual ritual of spring cleaning.  You know what I’m talking about…dusting, vacuuming, washing and polishing like you do no other time of the year.  Some refer to it as a “deep cleaning”.  I like to refer to it as a waste of my time at that time [...]

How Low Will the FED Go?

How Low Will the FED Go?

When I consider House Refinancing I can’t help but ask myself if this is the right time to be doing this or if I should continue to wait in anticipation that the rates will continue to drop.  With the “R” word (recession) on everyone’s mind I look at where my mortgage and my second mortgage [...]

Spring is Here... Time for Hiking Boots!

Spring is Here… Time for Hiking Boots!

With the latest break in our weather – We’re actually seeing 50+ degrees which is quite nice since we’ve had like the 10th or 11th worst winter on record. – I’ve been looking for a new pair of hiking boots.  Now I must say that clothing and shoes are not something that I purchase much [...]

Interest Rates and Your Equity

With the recent reductions in the prime interest rates NOW may be the time for you to consider refinancing you home to get out of a variable interest rate loan or a loan with a large balloon. Perhaps you’d like to do some debt consolidation, or a remodel…you could get a Home Equity Loan or [...]

Send Your Children Out Begging for Funds...

Send Your Children Out Begging for Funds…

I never could quite grasp the concept of sending our children out to pawn candy bars, wrapping paper, tea, etc… just so they could earn money for the latest and greatest “program” at school.   I must say I am a sucker and I will usually pry out of my wallet the $3 dollars they are [...]

Blog Marketing Ideas

Do you remember the baseball movie with Kevin Kostner called “Field of Dreams”?  The phrase – “If you build it they will come”  – may work for baseball fields in the middle of nowhere but it does NOT work for a blog.  You have to do some level of marketing.  Buzzfuse offers a unique marketing [...]
