From August 2010 to June 2017 I had a...

I bought my bungalow in 2010 and had a mortgage until 2017. Some people have a car loan and I have never had one. In 2013 I needed to buy a car with a wheelchair space. The car cost a lot so I used cash and two different credit...

Here it is, the end of one month turning over to the beginning of a new one. And that means the monthly ritual: BILLS.
No, I'm not crazy about the bills, but I am thankful for them.

I began my mortgage in 2010 because I had to buy a bungalow. That is because my disabled son needed a downstairs bedroom and wet room. In 2012 I went to see a mortgage advisor and there I reduced my 25 year mortgage to 10 years....

Today, I have read about an estate agent suggesting that anyone could easily afford a deposit for a house by simply sacrificing luxuries.
I'm not going to argue that as a possibility. Of course, if you, as this estate agent...

In fact people of a country determine everything. Without them existing, a country would be useless no matter how smart the leader is. On the other hands, there are people and leaders of a country but it has no fund, or adequate...

I found an opened letter when I get home yesterday evening from the mortgage company. They raised our payments up $60.00! I didn't say anything to my son at the time because I was tired. Today I find out from my daughter that he...
