	Emergencies Never Cease By Mary Dalrymple It's a little bit morbid, but take a second to flip through your local paper and notice all the bad news. You may see local businesses laying off workers, car accidents, health costs hitting record highs, and lots of other depressing things. (Then go read the cute animal feature to cheer yourself up.) + read more Date: 05-07-2007

	Retire Young Enough to Enjoy It By Chuck Saletta What is your top priority in life? Is it your money? The stuff that money can buy? Or is the time you have available to spend with your family, friends, and loved ones at the top of your list? + read more Date: 04-30-2007

	Alternative Uses for IRAs By Elizabeth Brokamp We all know that an IRA is meant to build a tidy little nest egg for retirement. After all, it's not called an ''Individual Retirement Arrangement'' for nothing. (Yes, the A stands for Arrangement, not Account — ask the IRS.) + read more Date: 04-23-2007

	5 IRA Myths By Elizabeth Brokamp Everyone knows that an IRA is a great way to save for retirement, but there are lesser-known (but very important) facts that may have escaped your attention. Read on for five myths about IRAs that may be affecting your bottom line. + read more Date: 04-16-2007

	The End of Retirement By Robert Brokamp Tired of reading about America's retirement woes? Then I have an alternative for you: Watch a TV show about them. Heck, you don't even have to move to your TV — you can watch it on your computer, from the comfort of your own desk chair. The particular program I'm talking about is an episode of the PBS series Frontline titled ''Can You Afford to Retire?'' + read more Date: 04-09-2007

	Right Customer Service Wrongs By Elizabeth Brokamp Most of us have a story or two to tell about lousy customer service. + read more Date: 04-02-2007

	Financial Vows in Marriage By Elizabeth Brokamp When my husband and I were on our honeymoon, we decided to write private wedding vows, which were a bit different than the typical ''I do's'' we'd exchanged at the church. Why? We hadn't relished the idea of sharing our innermost thoughts with the 100+ friends and family who bore witness to our marriage, and flowery promises just aren't our style. Besides all that, it would have been downright embarrassing to utter the words, ''I vow never to wear big-bottomed undies,'' in front of the priest, our parents, colleagues, and former boss. + read more Date: 03-26-2007 Current rating: 7

	Oh, Great — Another Financial Site? By Rick Aristotle Munarriz Whether or not you believe there's a glut of personal finance sites online, two big companies seem to think there's room for one more. Dow Jones (NYSE: DJ) and IAC/InterActiveCorp (Nasdaq: IACI) are teaming up to create a new community-driven destination for investors, budgeters, and just about anyone weighing a financial decision. + read more Date: 03-19-2007

	Buy the Neighborhood By Elizabeth Brokamp If you're in the market for a home this year, look beyond its four walls and directly at your neighbors. No, I'm not advocating spying (violating ''peeping Tom'' laws doesn't create a great first impression), but do thoroughly check out a prospective neighborhood before plunking down hundreds of thousands of your hard-earned dollars. + read more Date: 03-12-2007 Current rating: 10

	Abundant Options in Alternative Compensation By Rich Duprey While nearly every investor has heard of stock options, few are likely aware of their close cousins, restricted shares and stock appreciation rights. Even if investors have heard of them, fewer still probably understand how they work. + read more Date: 03-05-2007

	The Best Way to Save for Retirement By Elizabeth Brokamp A fellow parent recently posted the question, ''How do you stay focused on your retirement goals?'' on a message board that I frequent about raising children. While it may seem a bit off-topic, it's a highly relevant question — one that more people need to keep in the forefront of their minds. Whether each of us saves adequately for retirement can have ramifications, not only for ourselves, but for our kids and grandkids, too. + read more Date: 02-26-2007

	Ease Into Retirement By Dan Caplinger For some people, retirement is a long-awaited respite from a job they never liked. For others, it's the chance to do all those things they never seemed to have time for earlier in life. No matter what plans you have for your retirement, it's easy to think of it in very dramatic terms: One day you're working full-time, and the next you're retired, and not doing a thing. + read more Date: 02-19-2007

	You're Slowly Losing Money By Elizabeth Brokamp Bank statements don't make for scintillating reading, but if you take a close look, you could find a few unpleasant surprises. Such was the case when I glanced at our last statement and discovered our bank was simultaneously charging us for banking with online bill payment and banking without it. How we could be doing both — and paying for it — was beyond me. But there the charges were, $9.95 and $5.95, respectively, leaking dollars out of our checking account. + read more Date: 02-12-2007

	Why You Need Umbrella Insurance By Elizabeth Brokamp Most folks know all about securing adequate insurance coverage for their cars, homes, and other personal property. After all, the tangible nature of these items is a reminder that someday they could be lost, stolen, or damaged, leaving you scrambling for a replacement. + read more Date: 02-05-2007

	Challenge Your Property Tax Assessment By Elizabeth Brokamp With the real estate market cooling down and more folks staying put in their current homes, many homeowners are looking to put a lid on their property tax assessments. If you're in sticker shock over your recent assessment, here's a quick lesson in what to do about it. + read more Date: 01-29-2007

	Pros and Cons of Prepaid Tuition Plans By Elizabeth Brokamp On a recent Friday my husband surprised me by coming home early — and he caught me in the middle of some illicit computer activity. No, it's not what you think; I was actually looking at our state's prepaid tuition program. + read more Date: 01-22-2007

	Rediscover Your Pre-Holiday Budget By Elizabeth Brokamp Did the holidays feel like one long competition for your money? From gifts for family and friends, Secret Santa games, Salvation Army bell-ringers, and the checkout folks at every store asking, "Would you like to add a dollar for XYZ charity?" it can be hard to catch your breath, much less stick to a budget. + read more Date: 01-15-2007

	Save Big on Auto Insurance By The Motley Fool Elizabeth Brokamp If saving money is at the top of your list of New Year's resolutions for 2007, then you'll want to get on the phone with your auto insurance company. You may be in for a treat in the form of a discount, whether it's because of your age, your exemplary behavior, or the type of car you drive. + read more Date: 01-08-2007

	5 Minutes or Less By Elizabeth Brokamp It's time to think about your resolutions for the New Year, but thinking about them is just the first step. After that comes doing them, something we can all acknowledge is a wee bit harder. Our excuses for inaction include fatigue, conflicting priorities, forgetfulness, or most often, that there's simply + read more Date: 01-01-2007

	Holiday Tipping in a Nutshell By Elizabeth Brokamp It seems that tipping for Christmas isn't just a New York phenomenon — some exotic ritual performed by big spenders in the land of doormen, taxis, and Broadway. Tipping is a show of appreciation for the people who make your life easier in big and small ways. Those people are not your friends exactly, but theyre more intimate than mere acquaintances (they've folded your underwear or massaged your scalp, for example). Yes, you can resort to gift cards or the ever-dreaded fruitcake, but they're often expecting a tip instead. + read more Date: 12-25-2006

We collect jobs from more than 250,000 websites and post them on our site. We do not charge employers to post their listings. We are private, and therefore far fewer people are applying for the jobs on our site than are applying for those on public job boards.
