Get Some Free Credit Monitoring…And Guess What? Approved! 560k Mortgage!
05
Aug
Just went to go see a loan officer at my credit union, and as I was digging up paperwork so that I had all my financial info in place, I found an old prequalification notice for $560k. Single, living on a decent income, but still, 560k??! That’s oh, $3,600 per month. Extend the 30% of my income rule, and that means I’m making $144k per year after taxes! Wow, I can dream.
But then consider I left my job because I was really unhappy, and where would I be. I’d be sitting in the same position as a lot of people today. Sure that prequalification was really just to see what the maximum I could afford was…but wow! I’m glad I didn’t go crazy.
Anyway, about the free credit monitoring…if you’re interested, check out www.listclassaction.com. This was featured in Kiplinger’s, and is basically a settlement with Trans Union which can give you a minimum of 6 months of free credit monitoring. If you had a credit/loan account from Jan 1, 1987 – May 28, 2008, you’re eligible. This offer ends Sept 24, 2008.

Thanks to Jonathan over at MyMoneyBlog.com, I’ve decided to open up an account at TD Ameritrade. If you didn’t know, I’ve started my Christmas shopping, this Nano maybe one of my gifts. Before you jump on me for being a cheap *ss, hey a 2GB Nano iPod is nothing to sneeze at! I want to keep it for myself infact.
I’ll be posting up ways I’m saving on Christmas shopping in a few weeks.
Want a 20% Return On $50? Check Out This Offer From Starbucks.

Sep
Pretty good offer if you’re a Starbucks java junkie. Buy a new $50 card, reload at least $50, or signup for auto-load and you get $10. The one requirement is that you fund your new card using a Visa credit card–any Visa credit card. Combine it with a rewards card, and you’re looking at an even higher return. The offer expires on September 30, 2006. If you think about it, Starbucks rarely has any type of “specials.” Enjoy.
