The market.

In an unstable market it’s always a good thing to make sure that you have a diversified portfolio.   That way if something takes a dive you don’t lose all of your money - just a portion of it.

Margot got her distribution check a few months ago and put it into her mutual fund and some into individual stocks.    We’re constantly looking for stocks that are going to take off and be the next Microsoft.    Too bad we don’t have any insider information!

One thing we might look into is to trade stock options.   OEX online offers trading of stock options.   They also offer a great mentoring program for people that are new to stock option trading, like us!

Need help spending your money?

May 26, 2007 at 2:29 pm · Filed under Money, PP

I’d be more than happy to help you!    But I’m sure you’re probably looking for a professional coin dealer who can help you invest your money.  Gold and Silver retain their value through the years and because they are in such demand you can be guaranteed that they are an amazing investment. 

With Monex Deposit Company you can be assured that your money and investments are in good hands.   They have been in the business of selling Gold, Silver, and other fine metals for over thirty years.    They are the industry leader and can guide you to the right product for your investment needs.

The great thing about Silver and Gold is that you don’t have to worry about the value.   It’s demand is always higher than it’s supply which makes it a wanted commodity.   Not to mention, it’s not something that you can lose with one bad day on Wall Street.  

It’s the perfect idea if you’re looking for something to diversify your portfolio with.

Dare I say the four letter word?

Debt.

Okay, I said it.   After coming very close to being debt-free I’m afraid that we’re going to be opening a whole new can of worms with our newest infertility journey.   The good thing is…   I’m guessing it will work and we’ll end up pregnant.    The bad news…   we’re going to owe $20,000.

We’re going to try not to add to our credit card debt by doing a remortgage of the house.    We have built up a lot of equity in the house over the past few years and they are offering some pretty good finance charges through our local bank.

However, I just checked out SecureLoanConsolidation.com and you can actually look at the different rates and apply online for debt consolidation and loans.   If you are looking for a New York State you can look directly at the offers available within the state.

Where are our rich and loving relatives when we need them?

I love rich friends.

And I wish had more of them!   One person who has been in the news a lot lately is George Lindemann Jr.    Now most of you think of the famous blogger George Lindemann when I bring up the name.   But I’m talking about the George that is the heir to his father’s fortune.    His father is famous and rich from his interests in:  contact lens, oil, and cellular magnate.

The great thing about George Jr. is that he’s putting his good looks, brains, and MONEY to work!   He’s active in the community and always looking to donate funds for a worthy cause.

Hmm…maybe I should meet this guy!

Oh credit cards.

May 7, 2007 at 10:48 am · Filed under Finances, Money, PP

We have a love hate relationship with our credit cards.   Lately, it’s been pure love because we don’t owe much!    But let me tell you…when we rack up major balances on the credit cards we absolutely hate to get our statements!

We actually now have a favorite credit card.   We ended up doing research and found that our best traveling credit card is the Capital One.   They don’t charge conversion fees when traveling abroad and they don’t have an annual charge.   They also offer a pretty decent rewards program.

All in all, I think credit cards are pretty good when in the right hands.  Ten years ago we shouldn’t have had the ability to sign up for as many as we did!    We just ended up getting those balances down to a manageable amount.

MoneyEverything.com offers some really good information on credit cards and gives you some information on how to compare the different credit cards to find the one that is the perfect fit for your financial needs.
