Can I trade my money in for a functioning government or even just some border security?
 
The federal government is sending each of us a $600 rebate.

If we spend that money at Wal-Mart, the money will go to China.

If we spend it on gasoline it will go to the Arabs.

If we purchase a computer it will go to India.

If we purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to Mexico, Honduras, and Guatemala.

If we purchase a good car it will go to Japan.

If we purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan.

NONE of it will help the American economy.

The only way to keep that money here at home is to buy prostitutes and beer, since these are the only products still produced in the US.

true story
 
I'll be paying off bills with mine. I have student loans in the amount of ~$6200 and ~$2800 I plan on throwing the whole $1500 at the smaller of the 2 student loans and having the whole thing (smaller one) paid off by the end of the year. That way my outstanding debt will be down to mortgage and large student loan. I want to start putting some more money into savings and open an IRA.

i wouldn't do that. if you pay off the one that charges less actual dollars in monthly interest, you will lose money. either consolidate or pay off the higher one faster.

$6000x6%~30/month interest
$2800x6%~14/month interest

I have some credit cards with $1500 on them at 10% and a motorcycyle with $9000 at 10%. which one do you think has a higher monthly interest charge? pay down the higher of the two and save some money.
 
but if you pay off the smaller one you can double up on payments to the larger one and cut that time in half as well as drastically reducing the principal

and its easier to make one payment a month than 2

that wont make a difference.

lets say he's paying

$100/mo on $6k
$100/mo on $3k

min on each is $50/mo

it would be in his best interest to pay $150 on the $6k and $50 on the $3k.
 
yeah...:hmm: everything i've read says pay off the small balances first so you can end up putting the money you were paying to those against the larger balance. of course, keeping in mind that you should pay the highest interest items first. but if they're at the same interest rate, pay the small balance first, then hit the bigger balance with its regular payment + the payment you were making on the small balance.

yeah, but it depends on rates.

take me for example.

i have 9k at 10% and $300 at 23% (dont' ask). i need to pay more on the bike than the little card. rates are important here because that is how much they are charging you for borrowing money.
