Photo by: ricbro85Oh, it has been a good week - I had my car broken into, but alas with enough harassing to Geico, they decided to see it my way and paid for the damages that were made. I had H&R Block guest post, was in another carnival this week hosted by TheDividendGuy, and […]

How did I decide on a 529 plan for my kids?

Photo by: soldiersmediacenter Well, honestly, I didn’t. My mother picked them out for the girls under her name for a Christmas present in 2006. She lives in Montana and her investment rep told her that she would be best suited to buy through him as he’d “pick the best plans for her”, […]
