Over the past few years, I’ve been on the road quite a bit. Well, as much as somebody who works full time is ever able to be. I have averaged 2-3 trips per year within North America, each one bringing different money saving (and splurging) opportunities and challenges. I just recently returned from a trip … … Continue reading →

One of the main marriage stressors, and the top cause of divorce, is fighting about money.  If one of you is a spendthrift and one is a saver, financial feuding will be a given unless the two of you can find a way that is agreeable to both of you to manage your disparate financial … … Continue reading →

Indeed, there are some cases that I think that cheaper definitely isn’t … … Continue reading →

As part of an effort to change my life through healthy eating, I decided to do a raw cleanse. I think cleanses are great, despite there being many naysayers toward them.

I was born in 1948 so my early childhood was spent in the 1950’s. I remember it as a simpler time, but a less convenient and more labor intensive era.
