MBA or no MBA?

By Sean | Mar 31, 2005

I graduated college almost three years ago and have been working since. I’m thinking of going back to school for an M.B.A. degree. I can really go deep into finances and business then. Also, there have been more money pouring into the markets now. The economy seems to be picking up [...]

Suze Orman – The Road to Wealth DVD

By Sean | Mar 31, 2005

I rented the Suze Orman’s DVD, The Road to Wealth and I have to say it’s pretty good. I recommend it for those who are interested in managing their own finance and learn about different kinds of investments and savings. I agree with her that the best financial planner is really yourself and when you [...]

The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous and Broke

By Sean | Mar 29, 2005

I just received my copy of this book, Young, Fabulous and Broke. I think it’s a good book for those who just graduated college or have been working for only a few years.
The biggest investment you can make when you’re young is to invest in yourself. Taking extra courses in school or [...]

Texas Hold’em Poker

By Sean | Mar 26, 2005

My friends and I play poker almost every weekend. The game have become a huge hit lately all over the places due to the World Champion Poker Tournament and media publicity. Somehow the game has also become a weekly habit for us as well.
I have become more competitive lately. I begin to analyze people’s face [...]

Ing Direct Referral

By Sean | Mar 25, 2005

I just told my co-workers about ING DIRECT and its high interest rate. They all seem interested when they saw the orange website and the 2.80% advertisement. I told them it’s easy to sign up and there’s no minimum requirement. Because it’s an internet bank and there’s no ATM withdraws, it’s a great way to [...]

One subscriber

By Sean | Mar 25, 2005

Wow! I got one subscriber. I don’t know who it is, but that’s gotta be someone who is responsible for his/her personal finances and wants to learn more. Good for you!
I wish I can get some comments. Does anyone else read this blog? Should I change the template? Would a brighter background look [...]

Microsoft Money

By Sean | Mar 25, 2005

I have been using Microsoft Money for a few years and I have to say using a software to keep track of expenses is really helpful. I put in all my financial accounts, whether it’s banks, credit cards, investment banks or loans, and I keep track of all the transactions on each account. [...]

Smart Living – Part 2

By Sean | Mar 23, 2005

There are some peope that just saves up every penny they can and hardly spend a dime in a week. While I’m all up for saving money, I think sometimes taking it to the extremes can fireback on you. I don’t want to be a penny pincher; I think that takes the flavor out of [...]

Smart Living – Part I

By Sean | Mar 23, 2005

I used to go shop online a lot. I would waste most of my paychecks ordering hot deals. Sometimes I think hot deals can turn into really bad deals if you’re not careful.
After a few years of working and still don’t have money saved up, I come to realize my overspending and am now much [...]
