Cheap Eats

In todays world of tightening belts and penny pinching, we all need ways to stretch our dollar without giving up the luxuries of life. I admit I succumbed to the excess of the early 21st century, only to be among the millions who had to give up pleasures for necessities. But in the shadow of the day, there is always a light. The common luxuries I am writing of are simple, food. Food is the one guilty pleasure which helps us forget the ills of the world.

One place to eat like a king on a paupers income is Subway. $5 for a sandwich for some can last more than one meal. If you play your cards right, you hit all of the major food groups with one sandwich. Yes chips and a drink may be extra, but the extras wont have you breaking the bank. In the heat of competition, Quiznos has raised the bar to try and match the most well known sub sandwich franchise by adding the extras and claims of taste.
Another kingly eatery is Dominos. Now you can order two medium pizzas for under $15. That amount of money can surely feed even the hungriest of broods. Their main competition Pizza Hut doesnt off the best of deals, but for a smaller family, any pizza for $10 isnt bad either. Can we say pizza night is back?

The most widely used form of cheap eats is the fast food restaurants. As the Great Recession is starting to not bear as much teeth, they are starting to bring back meal deals for under $3. What is this, the 20st century? A burger, fries, and a drink for a price which is not going to make me go into the poor house is something I like to use.

Whether you indulge in pizza, a burger and fries, or a foot long sandwich there is something out there for you. If you are clearly broke, yet you want to eat as if you are a Trump, take my advice and check out one of Americas favorite cheap eateries. Dont worry; your wallet will thank me later.

Money Pros and Cons - Personal Finance Basics

By [Really Long Link]Brandon Schmid

Is money good or is it bad? Depending how you view it, cash can be good but it has the potential to be a bad thing as well. Money can be good because it allows you the exact lifestyle you desire. It has the ability to fund your dreams such as going on holidays or could allow the chance for an early retirement. Money creates the chance to create a family, live in the city you want and allows to you to do anything you can imagine. Proper money management is the simplest way to understand personal finance basics.

The down side to money is if you live for it. By slaving away working at a place you don't like to earn money makes it bad. Cash can misguide many of Americans to become workaholics and desert their loved ones.

Without a doubt cash does have more good aspects than bad. Unfortunately the bad things related to money are often tied with misuse or greed.

What is Money to you?

Is earning lots of money to live the life of luxury is important to you or do you want to make just enough so you can live modestly. The choice is simple with little grey area and we all make that choice when dealing with the personal finance basics in our lives.

If you want to work 60 hours a week so you can afford to drive an expensive vehicle and own a 4000 square foot home is the way you enjoy living then more power to you. Sadly, I believe|in my opinion} you have become a slave to cash if you must work that much to drive that car or live in that home.

On the other hand if you want to have 100% freedom and 0% responsibility then you are a slave to yourself. Money probably has no value to you and you make just enough to make ends meet. Is that bad? Who am I to say.

I'm certain there can be a happy medium when it comes to money. You can get all of the pros and none of the cons. Working hard is incredibly important but it's good to know that you should not work for money. The more you understand personal finance basics, the more it will start to give back to you and the less you will be it's slave.

The best advice I can give is to find an occupation that you love and would probably do it for free anyway. If you're not happy at your job chances are it's because you only see the dollar signs associated with the job. The way to make money a positive factor to you is to alter the way you think and love where you are. The great thing is, the more passion you put into everything in your life, the more money you will make and the happier you will be. In short you will work less and make more.
