Cash back credit cards, business credit cards, balance transfer credit cards; they’re all good depending on what it is you are looking for in a new credit card. We sometimes prefer something a little bit more instantaneous, such as a card that rewards us pretty much right away for being cardholders. For instance, what about […] More
My husband and I exchanged our vows more than 11 years ago. It was 2005. We were 21 and 22 at the time. We’d been dating since we were 18, and we’d been engaged for two years at that point. We were both students, full-time employees with careers we enjoyed and we were building our […] More
Credit cards are so necessary to have for so many of us. As a matter of fact, I learned that the other day. My husband and I have four small kids (8, 5 and 2-year-old twins) and something happened to my brand new SUV that had the air conditioner not working properly. It was the […] More
It’s not the big things that break down budgets on a regular basis. It’s the little things. Think of it this way; how often do you go out and buy a new boat or a new car or a new house during the month and add to your expenses and your budget? Not all that […] More
Small business owners and large business owners alike want one thing; success. They want to make sure that the little business they began is going to turn into something profitable, important and all that they had hoped and dreamed as they were building it up into whatever it happens to be today. One way to […] More
Taxes. Yuck. I have nothing else to say about those, but I need a few more words or else it was a pointless post that isn’t helping anyone with anything other than justifying your feelings that taxes are gross. No one wants to earn money by working hard and putting forth so much effort only […] More

Being a Florida girl, I have a very diverse taste in music. At any given moment you might find me rocking out to Justin Timberlake before a little Flo Rida comes on and makes me dance even harder, before something by Luke Bryan comes on and makes me feel the need to open a beer […] More
My husband and I have a strange obsession; we really love looking at the houses that are for sale in our neighborhood. Perhaps it stems from years of looking at houses for sale in our neighborhood before we even lived here since it’s our dream neighborhood. You know the one. The neighborhood that makes people’s […] More
September is my favorite month of the year; for a few reasons. It’s the beginning of college football season (go Gators!). The kids are back in school. Fall feels like it’s finally arrived (even though it’s still 90 degrees, humid and insufferable this time of year in Florida) and the Pumpkin Spice Latte is back. […] More
No matter how careful we are, no matter how diligently we plan, and no matter how responsible we are, at some point we will all make a mistake. We can hope it’s not a financial mistake, but it happens. I remember a time many years ago when I used to mail all our monthly expenses […] More
Summer is the word that everyone wants to hear all through the year. You get a break from school and work (hopefully) and you get to spend tons of time just lazing about with your family and your friends. On the other hand, your summer may be adventure- packed and you will find yourself backpacking […] More
