			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#8217;re having problems with your finances, seeing your money seem to vanish into thin air, and are starting to become stressed out about it all, you need to do something and do something now.</p>
<p>If you just can&#8217;t discipline yourself to do what you need to do, you need to contact a credit counseling organization.</p>
<p>A credit counseling organization can help you with setting up a budget and monitoring your expenses. Some will also contact credit card companies for you to work out some kind of payment plan that meets both your needs and the credit card company&#8217;s needs. They may also help you with any debt collectors that may be harassing you.</p>
<p>Many credit counseling organizations are nonprofit and will work with you to solve your financial problems. But you need to be aware that just because an organization says it&#8217;s &#8220;nonprofit,&#8221; it doesn&#8217;t mean that their services are free. There is no guarantee that its services are free, affordable, or even legitimate. In fact, some credit counseling organizations charge high fees, which may be hidden, or pressure consumers to make large &#8220;voluntary&#8221; contributions that can cause more debt.<span id="more-2141"></span></p>
<p>Most credit counselors offer services through local offices, the Internet, or on the telephone. If possible, find an organization that offers in-person counseling. Many universities, military bases, credit unions, housing authorities, and branches of the U.S. Cooperative Extension Service operate nonprofit credit counseling programs. Your local bank, consumer protection agency, or friends and family may also be able to offer suggestions.</p>
<p>Once you find a reputable credit counseling organizations they can advise you on managing your money and debts and help you with the things listed above. They will also likely offer you free educational materials and workshops. These counselors should be certified and trained in the areas of consumer credit, money and debt management, and budgeting. Counselors will discuss your entire financial situation with you and then help you develop a personalized plan to solve your money problems. An initial counseling session typically lasts an hour, with an offer of follow-up sessions.</p>
<p>If you are in a real bind with your finances, you can&#8217;t afford to not contact a credit counselor. You&#8217;ll be glad you did.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Among the easiest ways to save money is to use the cards that merchants, usually grocery stores, pass out for free to solidify shopper loyalty. At last count we had over 30, due to our travels living in an RV. You don&#8217;t have to be an RVer to use them, rare is the store that does not offer them.</p>
<p>I am continually amazed at some people&#8217;s reluctance to get these cards. They are free and take about a minute to get from customer service. Perhaps it is the reluctance to give out information, I don&#8217;t know.</p>
<p>I do know that you leave big bucks at the checkout stand without using them. It is automatic at our house to first hand over the card to the checker.</p>
<p>For instance when you buy a nice bottle of wine for say $10 you are probably going to save $2 by using the card&#8230;some can&#8217;t be bothered&#8230;me I&#8217;ll take the savings.<span id="more-1566"></span></p>
<p>Another of the easiest ways to save money is to apply for and use an American Express card at Costco, our favorite store to shop and save. Before we go on never get this card or any other card and not pay off your balance every month. Credit card companies make billions in interest every month at rates that would make a loan shark wince. Do not let this be you. No you don&#8217;t deserve anything you can&#8217;t pay for.</p>
<p>With this free card you get 3% off gas, always cheap at Costco, and 1 to 2 % off everything else. It&#8217;s the only credit card Costco will accept. It is using someone else&#8217;s money free for a month if you pay it off every month.</p>
<p>The easiest ways to save money include using merchant cards every time you shop. If you add the American Express card from Costco you also enjoy savings every time you use it. Just pay it off every month&#8230;no exceptions. Enjoy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You tallied up the credit card totals and it frightened you to death. Now you&#8217;re looking for another option. If you&#8217;re considering a debt consolidation loan, you can quite likely find one easily enough.</p>
<p>Debt-consolidation loans seem to be a staple offering in your snail mail, your email and on nearly every web site that you visit for credit management. You can view hundreds of them a day if you&#8217;re looking for them, but are they the right solution for you.</p>
<p>One of the biggest appeals of getting a debt consolidation loan is that it&#8217;s far more convenient. Rather than having to pay fifteen different credit card companies who will each charge a varying rate of interest, you can pay one company, have the same interest rate and pay off every account that you have, making just the one payment each month.</p>
<p><span id="more-128"></span>The sad fact is that easier, isn&#8217;t always better. Before you sign your name on that contract, make sure that the price you&#8217;ll be paying is actually less overall than what you&#8217;re paying now. Many times, the problems you&#8217;re having in your credit payments will translate into a higher cost in interest to get the loan, meaning that you&#8217;re going to be paying a lot more in the long run.</p>
<p>Get a calculator and check out the fees and the interest that you&#8217;re paying now to find out exactly what you&#8217;re going to pay. Make sure that your consolidation loan is the good deal that it sounds like. Then, as with any other product,consider your debt consolidation loan a purchase and shop around to get the best deal that you can. Your bank of ten years may not give you the better interest rate and a few points can add up to a lot of dollars over the long term.</p>
