I also track every penny I spend. I honestly do not know how I survived before I did this. Running out of money as a way to tell yourself to stop spending is no way to live. I would rather tell myself to stop spending while I still have money. Tracking your spending, I believe, gives you...

Food stamps are the same thing as bread lines except no waiting in line now, just a simple application to fill out. Plenty of teenagers riding the rails. There are train tracks a few miles from me, and every time i drive by, i see 3 or 4 teens, dressed in filthy black jeans & black shirts...

Are ETers savers or spenders?

15,000 tons of aid including food & medicine is delievered through the israeli/gaza border every week(according to CNN). But hey you know something? I agree with the slogan "Free Gaza" After all...its under Hamas rule, so yeah...I think Gaza should be free from Hamas, then the blockade...

I like my high interest rate. It ensures that I will never have a balance on my card at the end of the month. If my rate was like 2 or 3%, I would be too tempted to use that money.

When I was in College, I once took out an extra $4,000 that I didnt need, just so I could spend the summer traveling in Europe. I'm guessing she took out more loans for living expenses, or having fun. Student loans dont always go 100% to the university. Alot of students get cash back from...

Yes thats what I heard too. 50% of the people that actually graduate go into fields not related to their major. Hows that for a waste of money.

What? You mean you were attacked by Israel while trying to run a military blockade with a bunch of ships smuggling illegal goods into a country known to be run by extremists because you didnt want to go through the proper channels? You poor victim!!!! Isnt it funny how Israel has...

Shutting New York down would possible cause a panic throughout the markets.

1 in 8 Americans are on food stamps. Sounds bad right? Sounds worse when you find out that 1 in 4 children are on food stamps. http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/more-than-1-in-5-american-children-are-now-living-below-the-poverty-line The article goes on to say that the rich...

I think you completely missed the conversation.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100610/ap_on_re_us/us_slavery_photo A little boy named John was sold for $1,150 in 1854. That was about 57.5 oz of gold(gold was $20 per oz then). In todays dollars thats about $70,000. A plantation owner could hire someone to work 12 hours per day 6 days a...

Chit Chat sucks. Its all a bunch of single, desperate, horny guys in there talking about what girls they want to bang that they would never have a chance with in real life. Maybe make a seperate forum for them then, so chit chat isnt ruined.

I get 2% cash back on every purchase I make. I have had the card for years and now they would like nothing more than for me to close my account as right now, the same bank only gives 1% cash back on all purchases. My other card has a really high credit limit, so I have no negotiation as if I...

Didnt you hear? Credit cards are now adjustable rates. For instance...if your credit card was 20% before, now its Prime + 16.75%. You should've got a letter from your credit cards a few months ago letting you know this.

I shop there too. I always feel so out of place in there. Like when you drive through a bad neighborhood. I dont know,but just looking at the people in there depresses me. Sometimes if I am not in a good mood, I will go to a more expensive store, and willingly pay an extra 20%-30% just to...

I think a Health & Fitness forum would be a good idea in the community lounge at Elitetrader. Traders are sitting in their chairs all day with stress, backpain, and weight gain. A forum where traders could ask questions about how to deal with these topics, or perhaps they want to enter a...
