How do your next door neighbors spend their money?
February 4, 2010 – 10:56 am | No Comment

How do your next door neighbors spend their money?

Didn’t you always wonder what your next door neighbor spends on their money on every year? Or maybe you were curious on whether you spend more or less than you should based upon your current income levels? The answer to these and many other questions can be discovered on a new website called www.bundle.com.

Bundle is a fresh new website still in its testing stage that aggregates data from many different vantage points to give you incredible details on what people just like you spend from utilities to home repairs to dining out.

For example, if you are ages 36 to 49, are married with kids, and make $100k to 125k, here are the statistics according to Bundle. They say in Alpharetta, GA that the average demographic spends $1,144 in food and drink, $1,723 in shopping, and $405 in travel and leisure. Perhaps Bundle hasn’t been to Alpharetta as of late to see what kind of shopping is being done at the mall.

These new tools can be fabulous for looking as some fun financial statistics, but they simply don’t replace doing a comprehensive financial plan with your personal data. While you may have a great interest in the overall economy, what you should focus on most is that your personal economy. I often wonder what people around me spend their money on, but I know for sure that they won’t help me retire. Bundle up!

What If Tiger Woods Was A Stock?

Have you ever asked yourself around a specific investment you have whether you should buy, sell, or hold the investment? If Tiger Woods was a stock in today’s marketplace, the big question you should be asking yourself is should I buy, sell, or hold Tiger Woods?

The media currently has an insatiable appetite around the Tiger Woods scandal. In my opinion, this lesson around Tiger Woods could be one of the most important lessons around how investing should be viewed in the future, and most something certainly to consider around how you go about portfolio development for the future.

Overdraft Changes On Your ATM Card
December 2, 2009 – 10:54 am | 3 Comments
Overdraft Changes On Your ATM Card

In a move to show the Federal Reserve is now here to protect consumers, the Federal Reserve banned ATM and debit card overdraft fees unless customers have opted to pay to ensure balance busting transactions don’t automatically go through.

The new rules, which take effect July 1, 2010 mean that if you don’t have enough money in your account for the ATM withdrawal the transaction will be rejected. With any level of human reasoning, this should have always been the case. However, in the past, the bank would approve the transaction and tack on overdraft fees which can cost the average consumer hundreds of dollars per year.

Warren Buffett’s Secret Millionaire’s Club

It seems like cartoon movies are everywhere, with Hollywood celebrities cashing in doing animated sequels like Ice Age and Madagascar. I’ve got three kids, so I know what it costs to take a family of five to the movies for an evening showing. I also recently wrote an article about the upscale cost of the new theaters that are designed to show the 3-D movies.

Now, guess who is getting into the cartoon game? Yes, none other than Warren Buffett.

Health Insurance- Where are we headed?

There has been a ton of press over the past few months regarding health insurance. Democrats slamming Republicans, and Republicans slamming back Democrats.

I too have a political party. The party of the small business owner. We take all of our cash, put a business plan together, and work 70 to 80 hours per week creating the dream of building something that will live beyond our lifetime. However, with all that has gone on over the past year, where is the small business owner to turn when the policies from Washington, D.C. come to fruition.
