I attended Fincon (Financial Bloggers Conference) again this year. What is Fincon? Fincon is the Financial Bloggers Conference and it’s “Where Money & Media Meet”. This is my 2nd year attending and I enjoyed the opportunity to learn more to expand my business, engage in opportunities to collaborate with others, and meet your social media friends in person.
In honor of Life Insurance Awareness month I wanted to bring you additional options for covering funeral costs outside of Life Insurance.
So just to be clear I believe that life insurance is important to help cover funeral cost (if the funds will not be accessible when you pass but it is also important to have so your family’s (children, spouse or anyone you financially support) will be able to keep the same quality of life after you pass away.
I mention in a previous post that I budget by paycheck. I started doing this around 2005, after creating a monthly budget for a while and not feeling like I had a good handle on it (because I was busting my budget).
Lately, I have been asked a lot about how to increase credit score to get a mortgage. Last week. I talked about how your credit score is calculated. This week we will focus on activities that will help raise your score. Before we get into the details I really want you to understand that your credit score report is not the same as your friend's score and report.
One of the reasons why people don’t like to budget their money is because they feel restricted and they don't realize you can budget in the fun stuff. One way you can build in money for yourself is by adding fun money to your budget.
