French Fried

It seems that the country of France is looking for ways to save money on its public finances. They have a very large deficit and are planning ways to combat the red ink. One thing they are doing is raising their retirement age from 60 to 62. They hope to save a lot of money by doing this.

Of course, there are many people who are not happy with the decision. But, many believe it is the only responsible thing to do in light of the deficit. The plan will be implemented over a number of years and has some loopholes for those who need it. I think France is doing the right thing by keeping their deficit in check!

Dead Money

I was shocked to read today that the U.S. government has been sending out checks to those who are deceased. It was found out that over the last three or four years; more than 20,000 checks were sent to dead people. This is the kind of waste that makes Americans angry. That’s not all of the news. Some checks were sent to convicted felons as well as deadbeat contractors.

The Obama administration is vowing to rectify the situation by creating a database that list the dead as well as felons and contractors that owe the government money. I hope this new system will save the poor taxpayers some of their hard earned money!

Cell Phone Spies

I was listening to an interesting story today about a lady who was being spied on by a former boyfriend. The man had secretly installed spyware on her cell phone and was able to listen to her conversations as well as tell where she was. The technology is widely available online and works very well.

Anyone who thinks they may be a victim of this spyware has a few options for removing it. One way to do so is to reinstall the operating system of the phone. This will eliminate the spyware. Another option is to get a new phone entirely and that will end the threat. In today’s society you can never be too careful and knowing about things like this can help keep you safe!

Get it fixed!

Due to the recent tough economic times, many people have found themselves with bad credit. Whether they lost their jobs or had reduced hours, the lack of income has led them to missing a payment or two. I know how easy it can happen as I have been through it before myself. Luckily, you still may have some options open that you are not aware of. One option is to take advantage of people with knowledge of how to fix your credit.

Many times, there may be something on your credit report that you are not aware of. Sometimes, things are put on your report that is not even yours! These things can usually be cleaned up fairly easily if you know the system. If you don’t know the system, you should seek help by getting an expert to help you. Credit experts can be found at a company called Ovation Credit. They will ensure your credit report is corrected.

One of the keys to credit repair is to have an advisor to represent you. Having an advisor is allowed by law and should be taken advantage of. I think that everyone will agree that making sure your financial situation is the best it can be will take the steps necessary to fix it. Just remember that the sooner you get started, the sooner you will be able to stop worrying about money and concentrate on making it.

A Surprise

I was reading an article today about women drivers. The article stated that contrary to popular belief, most women are better drivers than men. I was quite surprised by this statement. I have spent most of my life believing the opposite. After living through many of my own experiences, I thought that girls were bad drivers. Surprisingly, according to the numbers women are safer drivers than men.

I was also unaware that in many cases, car insurance for women is cheaper. There are companies that actually seek out women drivers in order to get the lowest rates. I always say that the numbers don’t lie and I guess I’ll have to change my opinion. There are also other ways for to obtain cheap car insurance for women. By taking advantage of discounts and enrolling in driver education courses, women can get insurance that is very affordable.

I guess the battle between the sexes will go on for awhile longer, but I am certainly disheartened to find that men are on the bottom end of this deal. I will be glad to know that at least my wife will be able to afford the coverage she needs while driving around. I guess the insurance companies haven’t seen her driving yet!

Opinions and the law

One thing that is often overlooked in this country is the importance of law. The fact is that this land was built by the law and the law binds it together. I know that many people feel that lawyers are not always the best people to deal with, but they can really help you when your rights have been violated. I know this for a fact in my own life.

There was a time when I had a difference of opinion with one of my former employers. I felt that my rights as a worker were taken advantage of and I fought back. Of course I could not do this on my own and so I enlisted help from an employment lawyer to help me take my case before the law. It took awhile, but in the end I prevailed. I am so grateful for the help I received from my lawyer.

There are many people out there who may have some of the problems as I did. I would like to think that they could get the same legal help that I received. Finding the right lawyer is easier than you may think and it could make a huge difference in your life. I have always believed that getting an opinion from a legal mind is worth the trouble.

A New State

It would seem by now that everybody knows about my brother John. He recently moved to Texas with his wife Mable of twenty years. They decided to make a new start in life and john wanted to pursue his career in a place that was more suitable than home. They bought a place to live and were settling in nicely. Everything seemed to be going well.

John started his new company and everything started out well. The problem was that there are some differences in the law between the state of Texas and Virginia that John didn’t know about. This led to a legal entanglement with one of his customers. He needed to contact an Austin Business Litigation lawyer to help him figure out what to do. I told him that it was a good idea to do so and helped him look online for the best Business Lawyer Austin we could find.

The matter is now nearly finished with and results were good. We were never really worried that much because we knew John was innocent. We learned a few things about Business Litigation Austin along the way. John is back on track with his company and Mable is very proud of him. I know they will continue to do well in their new home state and will prosper from it.
