When it is a miscalculated cost that is the cause of your distress, there is not much else to do but find the error and find some extra money to cover the expense. If you get that money before your bank account gets an overdraft fee, all the better. Average fees for overdraft are about $35.00. These types of fees do nothing for you, just a punishment for your error. If you are going to pay a fee, at least pay one that will … Continue reading →

Over The Top Birthday Celebrations

Posted on March 20, 2012 by Kristy Lamar

In some families, it is almost a contest to see who can top who with the children’s birthday celebrations. I’m pretty glad that I live out of state so that I do not have to keep up in the running with my two children. I did take my son to a birthday party a few months back when I over heard the mom talking about spending almost $1000 on the party. I just sat there and imagined what I could do with that kind of money. I do know it wouldn’t … Continue reading →

Protect Yourself

Posted on March 16, 2012 by Kristy Lamar

Have you ever been on the lender end of someone you know looking for financial help? Did you give them what they needed or what you could afford? Borrowing and lending within personal relationships creates a shaky line between trusting their word or having some sort of contract. I’ve seen it done both ways, and one thing I have learned is that there needs to be full communication from the beginning. What happens when the other party cannot fulfill their end? That is when a business has an advantage to work at getting repaid. All I can say … Continue reading →

It makes keeping a healthy balance for your family that much more of a challenge. Some people have a grow it yourself option. Having a yard and living in an area with a longer growing period can cut down costs. Growing what you can and canning/freezing for the off season is how I grew up. Not everyone has this option though. Cutting down on restaurant conveniences … Continue reading →

Your Information Under Locks

Posted on March 6, 2012 by Kristy Lamar
