My wife used to compliment me whenever I communicated in Mandarin. She doesn’t anymore.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that though, because I couldn’t speak it back then and I could now carry a decent conversion using the language. In a short few years, she got used to hearing me speak in Mandarin [...]

Do you secretly wish that your TV would break so you can get a brand new one?
Or that your shoes would rip or your hat stolen? These are evil thoughts and may make no sense to the logical person, but they are real, they play a part in our lives, and they affect our [...]

My children are the best and nothing else suffice. I love them and will do anything to give them what they deserve.
By now, you’ve read so many articles about spending control that you can probably write your own book on the subject. Appreciate the big picture, delay gratification, 30 day rules, and the [...]

“Sometimes, you just have no choice but to bite the bullet. Or at least, the stars are lined up to give you that illusion.
Whether it’s at the airport or coffee shop, I have no problem paying for internet services. It’s a bit pricey alright, but the convenience they provide should be worth something. [...]

For years, I tried to stretch my money to its maximum potential. Moving money across different online savings accounts for better rates, taking money out of my checking account as soon as it’s there, paying bills on the last possible day to get more interest,…, the list goes on. Basically, whatever you can [...]

Out of all the coverage of the Bernard Madoff fraud, the one headline that really puzzled me was the point in time when they were negotiating a house that the lawyers claim belonged to Madoff’s wife. It would seem to me that every asset the family owns came from the ponzi scheme, especially since [...]

I don’t know why it is, but it seems like almost every marriage comes with a spender and a saver. I have seen rare exceptions where both are unleashed spenders – which often turns out to be quite disastrous, and even rarer still I have seen marriages with two savers. But for the most part, [...]

This is a guest post from Steve, who writes about business and entrepreneurship through his site, My Wife Quit Her Job. He was nice enough to share his inspiring story with us today, so let him know what you think!
Is there such thing as a secure job? Even if you are a top performer at [...]

Growing up in an Asian culture, I was influenced by the traditions and concepts of Taoism (check out wikipedia’s page for more on the subject). With the outlook of our jobs and economy so grim, I’d like to talk about natural forces and balance, one of the central concepts of this philosophy that have [...]

This is a guest post from Neal Frankle, CFP®. Like many, he was affected by the financial crisis but unlike most who did nothing, he managed to turn it into a positive experience.
It’s easy to be scared to death these days. You may have lost 40% (or more) of your investment capital. To put the [...]

Let’s be honest. Some people are just more considerate than others.
These type of people always seem to understand how you feel. You want to be with them but do you ever want to be them? Do you think of each situation as if you are in the other person’s shoes?
Someone was helping me with a [...]

Good luck happens at least once in a while!
From Me:
For a long time now, I wanted a 3-wood (golf club) but never could justify the purchase. Yesterday, my wife hinted that she will get me one for the holiday season (Thanksgiving, Christmas). The retail stores must have heard the conversation because this morning [...]

This post is dedicated to every generous person who give out gifts during the holiday season! Have a great end to this year!
