This article looks at the reasons an early start to retirement saving is so vital and why so many people just don’t get it.

Today's Task: Reduce the proliferating Plastic Ware. Please tell me that I'm not the only one with plastic ware stuffed in every empty crevice of the kitchen cupboards. My husband, who normally doesn't comment too much on the state of our home, was even fed up with the amount of plastic ware that we had. I could hear him gripe every morning as he was packing his lunch about not being able to find a lid that matches a bowl.

So, you have a new job and with it comes a new boss; or maybe, you have the same job and a new boss has been appointed as your superior. Now what you ask? Since the economy has been in recession, the current state of things is causing many people to really rethink how they view their job security. Those jobs for life we hear our parents and grandparents speak about, are unfortunately, not nearly as prevalent as they used to be.

I saw this tip recently, and I have to agree 100% with it. This tip has saved us so much money. It’s a pretty simple one. When something is broken, try fixing it yourself first. Utilize instructional YouTube videos to educate yourself on how to fix things and perform tasks you didn’t already know how to do. You’d be surprised how helpful these videos can be as they visually walk you through step-by-step.
