Sometimes people ignore important warning signs – such as a stop sign, the expiration date on their yogurt, or that rapidly spreading rash. You might ignore those signs and come out okay, but why take that chance?
Your credit report and credit score act as similar warning signs for your financial health. Ignore them at your own risk. [Read more…]

As a personal finance blogger, I have posted on the importance of health insurance and reasons you need life insurance. I’ve written on car insurance and homeowner’s coverage. I have even talked about the advantages of pet insurance. But this is the first time I have posted on protecting how you pay for everything you have and do – your income!
You could lose your job.
This can be frightening, especially if it happens when you are not planning on it. How will you pay your rent or mortgage? What about money for food and other essentials? Will you be able to keep your health insurance? What about your debt obligations like credit card or student loan payments? Savings only go so far and once you have depleted them, what next?

I recently heard about a new company called FinMason. They understand that there is a retirement crisis going on, and that the majority of people do not save anywhere near the amount of money that they need to save.
Kendrick Wakeman, founder and CEO of FinMason, understands this. In his article on CNBC, Risk tolerance is a blind spot for ‘accidental’ investors, he says:
Whether investors are saving for retirement, a college education for their kids or their first home, it's never been more important for them to have a strategic understanding of risk tolerance in order to meet their goals.
This is magnified when you consider that many households have become investors by “accident” or are saving for retirement via their employer's 401(k) plan, with little or no financial training.
For those with retirement in mind and a far shorter runway from which to build wealth — or rebuild it, in the event of an unexpected downturn — it's only that much more critical to have a view into the different scenarios that could alter both their near- and intermediate-term plans.

“For years, my father worked at a steel factory. Every day he’d go to the factory and breathe in clouds of hazardous chemicals. Every night he’d come home and hack up gobs of black chemical muck.
He didn’t compromise his health because he really wanted the steel industry to succeed. He did it to secure a financial future for us, his family. He did it to keep us dressed and fed, to send us to good schools so we wouldn’t have to work in factories.
My father would religiously put 10% of every paycheck into a savings account. It was something he learned from his father. And he told us to do the same. “You never know what the future will bring,” he’d say. “It’s best to have something tucked away.” [Read more…]

Pinecone Research is a company that I use to complete surveys. I have personally used them several times, so I can honestly say that this company is a legitimate company to use and they do actually pay.
They pay you for each survey you complete and they also occasionally send free products to review! No, completing surveys won't make you rich, but it can be a flexible way to make some side cash.
