Budget Bytes

October 27, 2009

I’m kind of a foodie in my own right.  Not only do I like eating food but I also love to cook.  What I don’t like is the fact that almost everyone spends too much for their food.  I’m so adamant about this that I authored a book called “Buckets Of Food For Pennies”. 

Beth  of Budget Bytes strikes at the heart of this matter in her blog.  She not only lists recipes but their costs.  Then she breaks those down by cost per serving. 

If you are as concerned or curious about how much you pay for your food as I am you should check out this fledgling blog.  Smart idea, Beth.

IRS Withholding Calculator

July 1, 2009

If you’re like many Americans and have had job changes, collected unemployment, or have had myriad of other “taxing” situations happen to you in the past year, you may not know if your income tax withholdings are accurate.  Don’t get caught not paying enough.  That could mean that you’ll owe a huge penalty plus interest to the IRS.  And if you having too much withheld you are just giving the government an interest-free loan for most of the year. 

If you are in doubt or what to more accurately nail your withholdings you might try this withholdings calculator directly from the IRS.
