I think school uniforms are a great idea! And, I totally agree with Robby--if they are required, they should be provided. I remember when my gym classes went "uniformed"--I was horrified, but then after the first few classes, I thought it was an ...

What I found is that the initial start up for school uniforms can be burdensome on families, but after that they really are less expensive. Cheap jeans are at least $15.00 for young children and even more for older kids, but you can get uniform pa...

I'm fine with school uniforms, but if they are going to be required, they ought to be provided. Standardized clothing can represent a significant expense for some low income families. If it's good for students to focus on schoolwork instead of fas...

Bundles Do They Really Save You Money? I call "Foul".

We are bombarded daily by advertisers claiming to save us money if we purchase their services in a bundle. I call "foul". Typically these bundle discounts are only available if you purchase another service. For example, I have cable television and I only have their "stater plan". However, anytime I call with a question. They try to sell me a "cost savings package". For x amount of dollars I can have t.v., internet, and telephone. In this particular case I can have it all for a low $99.00 per mon… Continue

FICO's system caught on in the United States beginning with Equifax in 1989 and followed by Experian and TransUnion in 1991.

Buying a home for $100.00 down - A bittersweet deal

I was talking to a realtor friend today who lives in Atlanta. We were reminiscing about the days when real estate was a stable, viable commodity. You could have never told us five years ago that the housing market would be in the mess it is in today. But as always, one's loss is another's gain.
