Spending Online: Where Do You Draw The Line?

Posted on October 15th, 2009 by by Jesse Michelsen

When the Internet was still relatively young, people were pretty afraid to put their credit card number out there on the open web. People would rather truck into the local store for anything they needed. Now, things are very different. People aren’t very afraid of buying on the Internet anymore and not only that but […]

What Is Your Dollar Really Worth?

Posted on October 14th, 2009 by by Jesse Michelsen

I have been contemplating the worth of money lately. I know what you’re thinking, “A dollar is worth a dollar, dummy”…but I’m not talking about the numeric value.

Every now and again we all have the urge to spout off something probably better left unsaid. My pick of the week goes to Krystal from GiveMeBackMyFiveBucks for doing just that.
