  • Have We Become Cowards
    Everyday I watch the news or hear about a story that just blows my mind. I can’t help but wonder that as a country we have become cowards in general. I am talking about all the murders, shootings, stabbings, rapes, and the rest of the violent crimes that take place.

    Our country was founded and established by a bunch of men that were up against the British Empire. England was the most powerful country in the world at the time of the Revolutionary War. The colonists came to ...
  • Hybrids Don't Make Sense Financially
    Hybrid vehicles are becoming more and more popular as the cost of gas continues to rise. The problem is, they really are not the best decision financially. Hybrids do provide a benefit to the environment in that they do not use as much gas as a conventional vehicle, but they do not save you money in most cases.

    Most people that buy hybrids do so for the gas savings. They assume that because they are using less gas that they are saving money. On the surface they are correct...
  • What Are Your Goals For A Vacation
    I participate in numerous forums and the question of where to go on vacation comes up frequently. I often suggest Disney World and it usually goes ignored. It left me wondering what it is people are looking for in a vacation.

    There is no question that people should go where they want on vacation because they work hard all year to save for it and vacations do not come very often. A vacation should be relaxing, fun, enjoyable, and memorable. I have been on very few vacations...
  • Glad To Be Married
    I am glad to be married. I have been married for almost 8 years and together with my wife for a total of 12 years. As you can see it has been a long time since I have been on a date and I couldn’t be more thankful. I found dating to be difficult back when I was doing it, now there are so many more dimensions to dating, it must be even more of a challenge.

    On-line dating is becoming more and more popular and in theory it sounds like it makes the process easier. But, given t...
  • Gas Prices Are On Fire
    As I write this article the average price for a gallon of regular gasoline is just under $3.00 for a countrywide average. The price will only continue to rise as issues continue to heat up with Iran and the price of crude oil continues to climb.

    I personally used to spend close to $400 per month on gas to commute back and forth to work and that was when gas was only $2.25 a gallon or so. I finally put a stop to that by starting my own website and working from home. Now I f...
  • Joe Arpaio For President
    Unless you live in Arizona there is a good chance you have never heard of Joe. He is a sheriff in Arizona. He was recently re-elected to his position in Maricopa County. Why do I think he should be President? Because he is actually trying to make a difference. He doesn’t care if he is pleasing everybody, he is trying to please the good citizens of his county and punish the bad ones.

    Joe is not your typical politician. Technically he is a politician because he needs to be v...
  • Why Go To The Company Directly?
    I was recently in the market for a new cell phone, thanks to my 2 year old daughter ripping my phone in two pieces. It used to be a flip phone. Now it is a non-working flip phone. My wife and I went to the local Verizon store to research new phones. I also looked at a website I previously came across on the internet, http://www.tmiwireless.com/?aid=5361.

    Fortunately I had viewed the site prior to going to the Verizon store or I would have Verizon charges a lot more than th...
  • Do You Like Your Job?
    I don’t know if there are any concrete numbers on this topic but if I had to guess I would say that less than 25% of people like their jobs. Most people continue to go to work because they feel they have no other options. They are either lacking in the educational background to improve their situation or maybe they have overextended themselves financially and they have to keep working at a job they hate to support their lifestyle.

    Whatever the reason is that you continue ...
  • The Fastest U.S. Production Car
    Back in 1987 the fastest U.S. production car ever to be produced was the Buick Grand National/GNX. I have owned three turbo Buicks in the past. They are a really fun car to drive. If you have never driven one, but you are looking for a new toy car to buy, you should really consider one of these. If you have $50,000 you could buy a GNX, other than that you should look into a Grand National or a Turbo T.

    What is great about these cars? Easy, their drive train. Other than the...
  • The Untapped Potential Of Reseller Programs
    I am part of the growing population of people who are looking to earn a living working from home on the internet. I am constantly looking for new and better ways to earn some income. I participate in multiple forums having to do with affiliate marketing and working from home. Very few people participate in reseller programs and I think they are missing out on some big-time money.

    A reseller program is as simple as it sounds. You become a retailer for a particular company. ...
  • Microcaps Can Be Big Investments
    September 11, 2001 was a defining moment in the history of our country. Prior to this historical date the Department of Homeland Security was not even created and airport security was just like any other industry. Investors have capitalized on the recent surge in this sector. As most investors do, they go for the bigger companies and bigger name stocks when investing. As a result there are many micro-cap stocks that get overlooked.

    Micro-cap stocks sell for $5 or less per ...
  • A Quest For Answers
    I have written a handful of articles about cars. The ones about “muscle cars” or the old generation and new generation are easily my most popular articles. In a quest to find out why this debate seems so popular I have developed a survey, which will be found in the “about the author” section below.

    This one survey may not answer all the questions but it will be a good start. It was funny because as I was creating the survey I was trying to figure out which I prefer and I c...
  • It's Good Enough For Warren Buffet
    I have written an article or two about precious metals with very weak reception. I did not think it would be a huge reception but I thought there would be more interest. Precious metals are not understood by many people. I got into precious metals, more specifically silver, about 3 years ago. I have moved some of my investments in my IRA from more traditional investments to silver. My financial advisor was hesitant when I first discussed it with him. I know he did not agree w...
  • One Step Closer To Bankruptcy
    I have written a couple articles so far about the downfall of GM and Ford, although I have mostly focused on GM. GM announced today that they are going to offer some 113,000 hourly employees a severance package in the six figure range to leave and waive their rights to their healthcare benefits. Here is the link to the article making the announcement: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,188732,00.html.

    If I were in the position of some of these workers I would have a diffi...
