NJ living We live in NJ and have been looking into less expensive towns to live in; closer to husband's job, kids have graduated HS so no need to live in the expensive town we're in, etc. I've found a few places that are relatively inexpensive. If we sell and use the equity to purchase (or at...

Fine print The terms and conditions state that you can only use one gift card per restaurant, per month, per party. So it's better to get one for $50 instead of 2 at $25 each.

restaurant.com 80% I just tried it and it worked. For the restaurant you are interested in, select the gift card you want (i.e.,) $25 dollar card for $10 and select the quantity (I selected 4). Then click add to cart. At the top of the page there should be a field to enter the code, enter...

The rate is high for the OP but we don't know all the details. We are in NJ and just switched in Oct. from Aetna to BC/BS (self-employed, just the 2 of us in the business) and we have a family policy (4 kids and both of us) for which we pay $621 per month with the deductible being a few thousand...

If it is "in network" and they have a negotiated rate that is what the insurance pays but you are not liable for the difference. When we had this happen, I called the insurance company and that is what they told me, I then contacted the doctor, hospital, etc., and told them what the insurance...

Lease option Actually it could be beneficial to both the buyer and seller. We are in the process of offering that possibility now. A good site with real estate info is www.thecreativeinvestor.com. A lease option should actually be 2 contracts, one to purchase and the other to lease. This way...

Does anyone know how colleges figure any money that a student will be receiving (settlement from a lawsuit) into their financial aid calculations. If a student will receive money at 18, I assume that will reduce the aid they are eligible for but how is it calculated if they will only receive...

Dry heat - we were in Las Vegas in August 2 years ago, we stepped out of our air conditioned travel trailer to go to the hotel nearby and it was like opening the oven (think holiday turkey) and walking in.

Kitty, welcome. My grandmother lived to 92, you may have and should live as if you have many years ahead of you - enjoy. Mikey: I have to say that reading your posts, you really come across as a wonderful guy!!

Vicky, We are actually doing this right now. I work 20 hours a week, my husband has always freelanced, we have rental income and our credit score is about 780 but we did encounter problems with financing. Last year we did a rehab that cost more than twice as much as we budgeted and took twice...

Hey John, Congratulations! I also like to think that I am semi-retired because I only need to work approx. 20 hours a week. Some things to possibly look into for health insurance: start your own business and for only two employees (possibly you and your wife-if there is one) you can get a...
