Gift cards are my favorite gift. They are practical because I can get something I actually need and want, instead of someone spending their hard earned money on something I may not even need. And they are not "tacky" like cash, as long as the gifter is thoughtful about getting a gift card for a store the recipient like...more

I am disgusted by the idea that people want to destroy homes when there are plenty of people out here stuck renting who wish they could own and would be willing to put the work needed into those homes if someone would allow them to buy them for a reasonable price (considering they need work). For some people owning a h...more

Sorry, I don't sympathize. If you don't like the hours of your job or what holidays you have to work you can take it or leave it. There are a lot of unemployed people right now who would love to have your job. And just because Thanksgiving is an important holiday to you, that doesn't mean it is to everybody. I don't wa...more

I was going to leave Netflix or switch to getting the discs in the mail only (no streaming) when I heard about the price hike.

I have Hulu Plus for NEW programming from major networks and iTunes with my Apple TV for shows I like enough to buy. I may ...more

Epic fail on this article!!!! Try being someone who drives for a living and is forced to pay for their own fuel and tell me this would be great! If fuel hits $5 a gallon I will be out of a job because I could not afford to work! I'm already making less than minimum wage as it is. The money I am taking in is staying the...more

I have come to accept, and embrace, the fact that I probably need to expect to spend my retirement years living in a third world country where that Social Security check actually is enough to live on, like Cosa Rica or Bulgaria. My goal is to set enough aside to buy a place to live (much cheaper than it would cost here...more
