We can’t legally gamble on sports here in PA, but that doesn’t stop people. The Super Bowl is in 2 weeks and you can best believe that there’s gonna be big money bet on that game. We have a football pool that my friend is running that’s $20 a square. The final quarter pays over […]

I think I know the perfect gift to give someone for Valentine’s Day — artwork. You can create a canvas or art print for any photograph. Think about your favorite photo. It can be from your wedding, vacation or even your pet. Then go to photofiddle.com and turn that photo into art. That would make […]

It’s about time too. I thought I was gonna be stuck with them. I took them off of the online site where I had them listed though. I went to one of the book sellers that I generally buy my books from and sold them back to them.
I could have gotten more money for one […]

Yeah, not. These things are so bogus. They tell you what they want you to accomplish for this year and what you accomplished last year. You have to go in and give yourself at least 3 tasks to complete by the end of the year. It’s so stupid. There aren’t 3 things that I can […]

John and I go to Wally World at least once a week. We get breakfast food for work, junk food and John buys lunch for work. I generally don’t bring lunch because I eat here at work. Believe it or not my work cafeteria serves pretty good food so I don’t mind eating here.
I also […]

What?!?!? I guess there are some blogging wars going on between the pay to blog companies. Apparently Smorty (who I don’t blog for) doesn’t want your blog if you work with PPP (who I do blog for). Smorty is blaming PPP for all of the page rank woes of the world.
Google doesn’t like paid links, […]

My coworker Walter just moved back to Pittsburgh from the west coast. He loved it out there but he missed his family which spurred his move back. He lived in Washington State and Portland Oregon. He’s always telling us stories about how nice it is in Oregon. The story that always gets me is when […]

I never did a net worth update for last year. I ended the year with a net worth of $7024. My goal for this year is $10k by December 31st. This will be a little harder than normal to achieve because I have to take $2000 from savings for school and my car. So instead […]

Yeah blogging does have side benefits. One of them is the ability to try out new products. I do product reviews from my survey sites but some of the blogging companies send me products too. One person got chosen to review one of 3 ellipticals machines. I’ve gotten mostly food products which is perfectly fine by […]

I don’t really have enough money to invest at this point. But I always keep my eyes out for companies that I think have the potential for growth. Right now I’m sick and the majority of the cold meds that I’m taking are all made by the same company. One of the first investing principles […]

Finally. It seemed like it would never come. I overspent my last check and was a little short. I always pay my bills first so the money was from my miscellaneous account. Now John and I are going to Ikea to look at new office desks since his ex kept his computer desk. Then we’ll […]

It’s only the first week of January and I already missed a day. In my defense, I really am sick. I have the worse head cold right now. I have sinus pressure and my nose is sore from me blowing it so much. If I had a canvas tent I would pitch it under my desk […]
