Friday Finance Findings for April 30th

Friday Finance Findings for April 23rd
Tweet Hopefully by now you’ve all completed your taxes and received your refund if you had one coming. Did you do anything fun with your refund money or just tuck it away into savings? We got a surprise refund this year but no plans for anything extravagant. For now it’s just sitting in our FNBO [...]
Friday Finance Findings for April 9th
Tweet Hopefully those of you who celebrate Easter had a nice holiday last weekend. I’m just glad spring has finally sprung around these parts. But you wouldn’t know it if you lived around here.

Friday Finance Findings for March 19th
Tweet Here we are, it’s March Madness! I’m not sure if you follow college basketball or not, but if you do, I hope your brackets are holding up. Mine is in bad shape with all of the early upsets. Not that it matters since my bracket is just for fun, but it stinks to do [...]
Friday Finance Findings for February 26th

It seems like it’s been an abnormally long and cold [...]
Friday Finance Findings for February 19th
Tweet This week I wanted to kick off the Friday Finance Findings with a few fun pieces of trivia about money. China was the first country to use paper money. Ancient paper money can be traced back to the Pai-Lu P’i-pi (white deer-skin money) of Han Dynasty (140 BC) and the Fei-Chien (flying money) of [...]

Tweet It’s already mid-February, which means we’re just two months away from the tax filing deadline!

In case you missed [...]

Tweet Just a couple of announcements before we get to the links this week. First, don’t forget to enter the Money Crasher’s epic New Years contest. There’s nearly $10,000 worth of prizes being given away! That’s huge, and I’m even giving away a new Kindle. You still have a few days left to get your [...]

Tweet You want news? I’ve got some news for you. Starting next week I join the ranks of the self-employed, often referred to as a ‘problogger.’ Things didn’t work out with my employer, so here I am. It’s going to be an exciting, yet somewhat scary journey. The biggest concern is losing a big chunk [...]
