Aaron Patzer of Mint.com states the “4 good habits that can make the difference between going broke or building up your net worth each month”:

  1. Save money
  2. Avoid debt
  3. Invest
  4. Don’t lose it

Though only 4, it takes a while to be in the practice of starting them. Upholding them is a different story. To do that, I think his recent write-up, 12 Steps to Financial Fitness, is a good guideline to help attain those 4 good habits in the long run.

When Will I Get My Economic Stimulus Payment?

April 28th, 2008  |  Published in Uncategorized

We’ve all been asking/telling ourselves: “damn, I can use some extra cash right about now.” Well, your prayers and requests have been answered as the Government will soon be sending some dough your way:

A. The Treasury Department will make payments starting in early May. Early filers, especially those who choose direct deposit, will get their payments first.

If the IRS finishes processing your return by April 15, you will most likely get your payment based on this schedule. If you choose direct deposit, this means your payment will arrive on May 2, May 9 or May 16. If you do not choose direct deposit, checks will be mailed between mid-May and mid-July. For this initial batch of stimulus payments, the payment date will be based on the last two digits of your Social Security Number. [Updated 3/19/08]

But be smart about with what you do with it–or, just save it. To give you some more info on what this whole ordeal is about, you may check out the following:

Oh man… Sometimes I just forget to think, and go with “the force”. Jenn was IMing me to check out which laptop I recommend for her to get. So yah, it’ll prolly be a Dell 600m or 700m (but its still being thought of). Meanwhile…
