How to Cancel Your Credit Card

Posted on 31 August 2008

A few days ago my wallet was feeling a little too bulky. It was not because it was stuffed with cash. It was filled with plastic; credit cards as we call it. So I thought it was a good idea to cancel a few of them that I hadn’t been using for a while. I [...]

Posted on 27 August 2008

What if you don’t cancel your credit card before you die?

Yet Another Personal Finance Blog

Posted on 03 August 2008

We all have to consider the option of taking a loan at some point in our life. All of us make some purchases in life that are once in life time decisions for most of us. Good collage and school education, a nice auto-mobile, a decent place to live and call home. Most of these carry a price tag which is well beyond the reach of an average person who has just started his independent life. Unless your parents are filthy rich or you have just inherited a fortune, you can not buy any of above items by paying cash. A normal person simply does not have this kind of ready cash early in his life. To lead a decent life, you need good school and collage education, a good ride and a home. These needs are immediate and we normally don’t have any choice but to seek loan from financial institutions and banks to fulfill those. We take school loans, collage loans, auto loans and seek home equity finance or mortgage to start our life.
