During my recent vacation with my wife to Fort Lauderdale and Miami, Florida we went on our usual “search and destroy” mission for outlet malls. Our last excursion to the United States was Grand Canyon and Phoenix, Arizona back in October of last year and we were able to find a lot of deals at Arizona’s various oultet malls.

Last week I tested and built / refurbished two computers from scratch using Pentium Chips, motherboard, computer cases and RAM from 3 old computers from the east end Toronto City Recycle / Trash station. That was why I didn’t have much time to blog, it was quite a bit of work but the end result was that I saved quite a bit of money and it kept me busy.

Everyone has a different perception of wealth, however I think that most people would agree that wealth in terms of money allows us to buy stuff, but beyond that there is more. For example, it allows you to have more confidence and security. It gives you more freedom for your life and the choice to live your life the way you would like to. Don’t get me wrong, wealth is not just about money, other aspect of wealth include things like physical health, mental health, family, friends, philosophy of life and spirituality. Money is just an factor of wealth that allows you to have more choices and the ability to make the best choices for yourself and your family.

If you are a person who does not manage your money very well, have you ever thought why that is so?
I have, when I was in my mid-twenties, and I can attribute some of it to my personality, friends and lack of financial education. In school, whether it was public school, junior high and even high school there was pretty no course which taught “personal finance 101.”

This is just a short blurb on the new U.S. dollar coin.
Canadians have had our one dollar coin called the “loony” for a long time. It’s called a “loony” because there is a loon bird engraved on the coin so I wonder what nick names Americans our going to give the new U.S. dollar coin. How about “the George”, because I think “Washington” is already taken for another bill denomination, just a suggestion. We will see.

Does Your Credit Card “Benefit” You In Anyway?
You must be asking yourself, what in high heavens does Das Brain mean?
Well, let me put it this way. Does it give you any sort of reward points? Like Air Miles, Sony points, points for department stores or a certain hotels / airlines?
Next question to ask yourself is, does the credit card charge you an annual fee?
Most of my posts recently have been about stock, option trading and my internet ventures, so I decided that it is about time I write an article on the subject of personal finance.
I came across this article first thing this morning on Yahoo Finance. It is from Yahoo Finance, and one of its expert panel writers Robert Kiyosaki. I agree with the article simply because I worked in the financial industry for a good six years, and I know that Mutual Funds do take their chunk from the investor in the form of M.E.R (manage expense ratio). This of course cuts into the return of the investor.

In my last post, about why I seriously decided to be an entrepreneur I listed “I don’t want to be laid off” as one of my reasons.
