$7,500 Tax Credit for 1st Time Home Buyers

20 August, 2008 (22:00) | By: admin

There is a new act that has just passed that is giving new home buyers a $7,500 tax credit this year in an attempt to help out the US housing situation. However, this act is not all it’s cracked up to be. The tax credit needs to be paid back over the next 15 years or when you sell your house. That fact doesn’t seem to be as highly advertised.

The tax credit was created in order to ease the pain of homeowners, but this interest free loan from the government may just cause more people who can’t really afford homes to go out and buy them. It looks like this act is not all it’s cracked up to be from my perspective.

Are you fully insured?

20 August, 2008 (07:54) | By: admin

When most people think about being properly insured they think about health insurance. We all know it is smart to have it in case something happens and you need to make a trip to the hospital. Hospital bills can be very expensive, you could pay $10,000 just for one night in a hospital. But are you fully insured for any unseen events that might happen?

What happens if you become disabled? How will your family get by if you are unable to work? Who will pay your mortgage then? In this scenario they have created something called mortgage disability insurance. Your mortgage will be taken care of in the event of a disability. 50% of all foreclosures are the result of a disability and one in five people become disabled before the age of 65. If you are unwilling to take a chance with your family’s security then this is a much needed insurance policy.

There is also mortgage life insurance which works the same way, but it covers your mortgage in the event of your death instead of your disability. This mortgage protection insurance will ensure that your family can stay in your home in the event of your death. This insurance combined with term life insurance will ensure that your family is taken care of if the unthinkable should happen.

“My Only Offer” Mates of State Video

20 August, 2008 (07:43) | By: admin

The New Mates of State video is set in a hipster clothing store. The singers are stuck in glass cases that are slowly filling with Chuck-E-Cheese style plastic balls. Overall it’s a good and fun video, but you can watch it for yourself here.

If you’re looking to catch the Mates of State they’re playing in austin, texas.

Small Businesses

19 August, 2008 (21:36) | By: admin

I own my own small business, well very small as I’m the only employee, but I need financial tools just like any small business. Business Loans, credit cards, lines of credit. I recently came across a great website with all the financial tools you will need for your own small business. The site is ezunsecured.com.

From what I have read on the site it looks like they make the process of getting an unsecured loan very easy and simple. They don’t require any collateral, tax returns, and no Doc for up to $200,000 in loans. Their APR also starts at 6%, which is very low for a business loan. If your small business is bigger than most you can get up to $10 Million when you fill out an EZ doc with them.

If you are looking for a credit card they can also help you with that. They offer mastercard and visa with a credit line up to $100,000. Not only do they make loans and credit cards easy and hassle free, but they are a very experienced group with over 75 years of combined experience.

Many businesses fail simply because of cash flow problems. They can’t get the money they need in order to run their business the way they want to. With ezunsecured.com this should not be a problem as you can get up to $10 Million in loans. Consider any cash flow problems solved.

Another point that should be made is the fact that ezunsecured.com only deals with loans and credit cards. They don’t do checking, savings, or online banking. They are completely focused on credit and loans. They can give you financial advice on how much in loans you will need for your projects and give you the customer service you require because of their focus in only one aspect of banking.

Snoop Dogg’s video, “My Medicine”, was dedicated to country singer Johnny Cash. The new video features the likes of country singer Willie Nelson. The song is Snoop Dogg’s first country song. To view the video follow this link.

I’ll leave you to guess what “Medicine” refers to. Hint: snoop dogg and willie nelson both enjoy this “medicine”.

Best Dating Sites

19 August, 2008 (09:01) | By: admin

Online dating has grown very rapidly over the past 10 years. There are currently dozens of major online dating sites to choose from and it can be a little overwhelming to figure out which ones are the best ones to fit what you’re looking for in a dating site. If only there was a site that gave short descriptions on each of the major dating sites.

Well of course there are such sites. I have browed through several of these sites and the best one I found was primedatingsites.com. Their homepage features personals reviews on the 10 largest sites and gives a short overview of the features that each site has to offer. Once you get a feel for each dating site you can then read a more detailed review of the sites you are interested in.

For example if you were interested in the dating site “Perfect Match” you could take a look at the detailed review of the site. Their review tells us that when you join Perfect Match you can take a short questionnaire to determine your personality type. You can then be matched with other singles in your area based on the compatibility of your personality with other singles.

Missy Elliot’s new album, “Block Party”, is set to release at the end of the summer. Her big hit single on the album entitled “Best Best” has lines like “He the best / He the bomb / He cute / He fly / He fresh / He give me / Good sex” and that “We fuss fuss / We fight fight.”

Elliot says that the albumĀ  will have more of an R&B feeling to it.

Real Estate

18 August, 2008 (23:03) | By: admin

I’ve recently started to develop real estate websites and have been doing a lot of research on other real estate websites. One of the better ones I’ve seen is drodio.com. They specialize in real estate in virginia, washington dc, and maryland.

One of the cooler features they have is a birds eye view of housing they have available in their area. Also, on top of the normal housing search you find on other real estate sites you can also search listings by keyword. For example you can search for “swimming pool” or “fireplace” or any keywords you could find in a real estate listing. A very useful tool if you are searching for something very specific that you might not find in a typical real estate search engine.

On top of housing listings, they offer articles that give advice on common real estate issues. Some titles include “7 questions every buyer shold ask their realtor”, “how to buy a home for a penny at closing”, and
what to expect at closing”.

Don’t like to read? They also offer video tutorials with buying and selling tips. Finally, they have their own housing blog. Basically they have every resource you could possibly want in a real estate site.

“Standing Next To Me” Last Shadow Puppets Video

18 August, 2008 (21:56) | By: admin

If you’ve seen the new Last Shadow Puppets Video, found here, you probably found that there wasn’t much to it. The name of their album is “The Age of The Understatement” so perhaps we shouldn’t be surprised by this. The only thing in the video besides the two singers dressed in suits are a troop of 60s Mod girls wearing striped dresses.

The video was quite boring to say the least, but what did you think?

Walkin Tubs

18 August, 2008 (21:51) | By: admin

I was browsing around the internet the other day and I came across a site that offers those walkin tubs you see on television. The site was remainactive.com. I decided to read a bit about it and so I’ll share what I learned with you guys. It designed for the elderly and basically it’s a walkin tub that you can sit in. It has a door that latches shut and has a sealant so that no water can leak out of the tub. They can also be used as a shower if you so choose (showers are my personal preference). Another nice features of these tubs is that they come with a 10 year warranty. Whenever I make a purchase I always see if there’s a warranty. You never know what will happen and you never want to lose your investment.
