Experian comes out swinging against LifeLock

Have you even heard of Life Lock? It’s the commercial where the CEO puts his social security number on a billboard to tout the services of life lock. For a small fee, consumers can have alerts put on their credit reports preventing them from becoming victims of fraud. So why would Experian be mad about […]

Tuition is already due for summer

I just got my bill for the summer. Already. School doesn’t even start until the middle of May. I can’t believe the first payment is already due. Tuition is usually not due until a 2 or 3 weeks before school starts. As soon as I finish paying for my summer class, fall money will be […]

My balance was finally transferred

It’s about time! I thought I was going to have to make a payment on the account. That  would have been silly because the transfer would pay the account in full and leave a credit balance of $25.00. As soon as I saw the money added to the account, I wrote the cancellation letter to […]

I don’t want to be at work today

I am so tired and I don’t know why. I’ve been going to bed fairly early recently. Usually between 10:30 and 11:30 pm. Considering I used to go to be at 3am, that’s a big improvement. I never did sleep through the night so that’s not the problem. I swear if I had a massage […]

Cutting back on lunch expenses

I went shopping this past weekend to buy stuff to bring for lunch. I went yesterday and got the rest of the stuff that I needed. I should only have to buy lunch a few times for the next two weeks. I won’t have to buy breakfast or any snacks at all. Once I start […]

Just transfer my balance already

I’ve been waiting for my balance transfer to go through for a week. I opened a new credit card because it had better terms. It has a 0% interest rate until September 2009. No transfer fee and no annual fee. Of course they kill you with the return check fees or late fees. I always […]

Business cards with a logo done right

I had business cards made last year but I didn’t have a logo imprinted on them. They were just plain cards with my blog name and some other contact information. I hadn’t considered getting new ones made until I ran across a site that offered cards with various logo designs. I looked over the site […]

John found a new apartment

Yeah I know he had a new apartment in January but he didn’t like it and moved out already. The apartment really wasn’t that nice. It was in a sketchy neighborhood and he had some shady looking neighbors. We went out and bought all kinds of bedroom furniture as well as home theater furniture because his living room was a […]

I’m getting a refund

Yippee! It’s a small refund but I don’t owe and that’s great. I do owe money to the city and state but that was to be expected. I always owe them both anyway. I usually owe the state because of interest and dividends. It’s not bad because even after I pay both taxes, I will […]

I need new work clothes

I’m moving buildings at work. I’m going from an ultra laid back area to a regular business casual environment. Most of my clothes will be ok but some of them are questionable. So I need to go get some more dress pants and shirts. I can get away with turtle necks and long sleeve cotton […]

John and I are both looking for new jobs

I’m looking because I need more money. John is looking because he hates his job. He’s a bank teller which isn’t that bad really. But his branch is extremely focused on sales. So much so that they want 2 new accounts per day. His branch is busy but most of the people aren’t looking for […]

Shopping on my day off

Today is President’s Day so I was off of work. I work for a bank so we get off all of the federal holidays. We went to Ohio and went shopping. It’s amazing that a place so close has so many different stores than we have here. We looked at everything from furniture to a treadmill and […]
