Some ups and downs managed to lose some money and make some dabbling in stocks. Stay tuned.

Just past the $50,000 mark in my 401K savings. Very pleased with 6% return this year. Next step is to convert 401K to Roth IRA by paying $8,000 now to get $45,000 extra later plus tax free withdrawals in the future.

Gains & Losses Total:   -$339.10   -39.62 % = This  is the result of my adventures in investing thus far.  Originally and naively I believed that I would be able to amass a small fortune in a relatively short amount of time because I consider myself to be a reasonable smart person.  Don't get me wrong I have been successfully maintaining my retirement portfolio (

Investing in the stock market, especially for beginners, can seem like an impossible task. With thousands of companies to choose from, how do you know which one to pick and minimize any potential loss? Some of the world’s richest people, including Warren Buffett, believe one way to beat the stock market is to follow what is known as value investing. Value investing has been around since the

Still trying to reach the $50,000 milestone for my 401K, probably will reach it before the end of this year. The market has not helped my cause, to date my overall value has dropped 0.7%. I reallocated my funds in my 401K since the market is really flat this year. I have moved to some bonds federal and world and will follow closely to see how the account fairs.

I am currently on track to save over 1 million dollars for retirement. In fact Fidelity estimates that I'll have exactly $1,258,518 in my 401K upon retirement. Unfortunately that date is 35 years away. It will take me 32 to break the million dollar mark. I would like to speed up the process a bit and shave off 12 years so that I have a cool million saved when I turn 50. I know it all

I recently got a letter in the mail from Wells Fargo letting me know I have too much money in my escrow account and they sent me a refund. I was really surprised and somewhat upset to find out that they were holding my money. It was nice to get the $2,6752.11 check. They were also able to adjust my monthly mortgage bill so that I'll be paying $100 less a month. Has this ever happened to

Last summer I got accepted into a Master's program at UMDNJ. There was a lot of paperwork to fill out, but I completed the application. Much to my dismay I received a letter from UMDNJ shortly after being accepted stating that they received a payment from Sallie Mae for over $10,000. I was outraged. I never wanted any loans but they granted me student loans as part of the application process.

I have been paid $11 by one survey site through Paypal so far and I have another $14 waiting at other sites (I have not yet reached the payment threshold). After some simple calculation I have found that I make around 50 cents an hour working on surveys. This is not a very good use of my time since I make over $29 an hour at my job. As for blogging it is really little work and all reward since

What's the deal with PAID survey sites?  Recently I have been signing up for a lot of different survey sites to make some extra money.  After thoroughly testing numerous paid survey sites, countless hours of frustration I present to you an insiders look at the Wonderful World of Paid Survey Sites.     First I'd like to clarify a few things about doing online surveys.

Take a look at some of the survey sites on the right. It is free to sign up and you can earn money for a small amount of time and effort.

Join the underdog movement, avoid scams for the big names getting fat off the little fish. I am going to make the big online money makers mad by telling you how they do it, without charging you. Usually you'd be paying them $20 to upwards of $500 for the information I will share with you in the weeks to come.

In the beginning God created the earth.  One the 23rd day of the second month of the 2006, I created this blog (much to my wife's displeasure) with the goal of saving one million dollars for retirement (if you want to save a million for retirement you are in the right place). I was reading a lot online and even got scammed by a get rich quick scheme. I signed up for a $19.95 program and

Finished my taxes today. I'm going to be getting a good chunk of money back from the government. Actually if I would have figured out my with-holding the right way at the beginning of the year I could have avoided having the government hold on to my money and I could used it for something. What do you do when you get a tax refund? I want to put in savings, but my wife has other plans (a new
