I got a letter from Etrade today about completing my details for my online savings account. One of the things I noticed is that they didn’t include the enclosed envelope for us to mail the paperwork back.
These days, companies are finding more and more ways to save money. The simple idea I mentioned might be able [...]

I finally got the Harry Potter book from Costco for $18.19 since it was the best deal I could get after a little bit of a research. This is compared to Amazon’s $17.99 price plus shipping (For free shipping, I needed to get over $25 worth of literature). Below are the few places [...]

I first got involved with UNICEF when our school supported this charity by having all the kids bring a little donation box when we went to trick-or-treat during Halloween. (For those that are unfamiliar with this North American tradition, kids would go door to door to get candies from neighbors on Oct 31st every year [...]

I just read an article on NY Times about a couple that saved $98,000 in 5 years to buy their first house in New York. They are a perfect inspiration for all of us that says we don’t have enough money to save because the couple were by no means earning high salaries (a [...]

Being a Harry Potter fan, I plan to buy the last book that just came out about a week ago. I wanted to going to Costco first to see how much it costs there first so I should know by today. I’m not sure if I will ever read a novel in my [...]

Today is a very hot day. It is so hot that we were wondering if we can “take off” parts of our skin. 20 minutes ago, I really had this urge of drinking coke. I thought to myself that it would taste great, it would be ice cold, and it would make [...]

Today, I saw a posting from my landlord about a two bedroom apartment up for lease and also a $150 referral incentive if we can find someone to lease that unit.
The greedy / business-minded side of me immediately thought about whether it would make sense to switch to a two bedroom apartment and try to [...]

Some of the articles provide a better argument than others, while some don’t give a reason at all. This article illustrates what happened with one of my reader’s investment portfolio so we [...]

In recent years, we have been taught to use metrics such as miles per gallon (MPG) to determine the gas efficiency of a car. Certainly, driving the same gallon of gas on a Toyota Corolla is many times more efficient than that on a BMW X5. However, many of us don’t realize that it might [...]

It would be very much appreciated if everyone can leave a comment and say Happy Birthday to my fiancée since today is the day!

We [...]

As I mentioned some time ago, my fiancée and I are getting married in February of 2008. After many weeks of searching and qualifying our options, we decided to have a banquet at a resort close to where we live and also started to do budget tracking.
A quick tally of the major expenses of our [...]
