New van (finally!)
Filed under Life

Well, after a few last-minute problems, we were finally able to take delivery of our new van over the weekend. This was about three weeks later than expected, but the delay wasn’t really the dealer’s fault, so we didn’t mind.

We absolutely love our van, and have already put a couple hundred miles on it just from taking long drives whenever we get a chance. Everything about the van is cool, from the top-of-the-line GPS navigation system to the built-in iPod port and rear seat Alpine DVD player. Heck, there’s even a plug for my laptop so I never have to worry about the battery running out!

Of course, all of these extras cost a lot of money, so we’re going to be paying close to $700 a month for the next 5 years. I know that’s pretty high, but we didn’t exactly get the best rate on our loan.

It’s too bad that I didn’t hear about CarsBlvd.com before we bought our van. CarsBlvd.com provides free quotes on Car Loans for both new and used vehicles, making it easier for consumer to compare different rates. We probably could have gotten a lower interest rate from there, so I’m kind of bummed about our situation now.

Anyway, maybe some of you can benefit from the free quotes over at CarsBlvd.com. If you’re in the market for a new or used vehicle, go fill out the online form and get your free quote now!

Forex Trading?
Filed under Life

Ok, I’ve heard that people can make good money through Forex trading, but I also know that there are a bunch of scams out there. I am currently looking for a non-blogging/non-writing/non-website based ways to supplement my income, and really want to try Forex trading.

What are some trustworthy sites to learn about this type of thing? Am I making a mistake by even wanting to test the waters here?
