I haven’t had much luck with that site. Every code I seem to get is already expired…

Comment on Where’d all my money go? And word of the week by Debt Free Dude

Ouch! That is pretty expensive coffee. I know some people who put a couple extra hundred dollars in their checking account, but they balance their books as if it isn’t there. That way when they think they have $200, they actually have $400 and this gives them a bit of flexibility.

Another idea is to use a credit card, but track it like you would a checking account balancing the amount you spend against the amount in your bank account. If you have the discipline this can work well but don’t try it unless you know you will keep track of things very carefully.

Delivering Pizzas.

That’s what Latin honors from a 20,000 dollar a year institution will get you these days.

The first thing I ever saved for was a shirt from Limited Too for $31 when I was in fourth grade I remember every painful day of the month it took to make the money!

I would definitely recommend checking out Mint.com - it’s a lifesaver.

[...]It’s funny how quotes like this are invariably from those who are in and out of the finance industry itself or making similarly absurd salaries.[...]

God forbid the taxpayers get their own money back after they paid it to the specific division which did more than anyone else in the entire world to cause the problem we’re now in…

Thanks Joe, that’s really interesting, though I doubt we’re getting the whole story there - especially since she seems to still speak ambivalently about him.
