    Personal financial planning: to do or not to do
    Now don’t get me wrong. I know fully well that personal financial planning is something that we all must do. My only question is whether I should do it myself or leave it to some expert on behalf of me. The thing is that I don’t trust most of these financial planners. Most of them seem to have their own vested interests and it becomes very hard to trust someone when they become more of a broker than an adviser. Over time, many financial advisers have tried to talk to me about signing up with them, but I think this requires trust more than anything else and none of them seem particularly trustworthy. So all I end up saying is “thanks, but no thanks” as I stonewall all of them into submission. You see, it’s just not complicated in the slightest to do my own personal financial  [...]

    No More Unexplained Fees by Wireless Service Providers – FCC Questions Google and Others on Early Termination Fees!
    Wireless service providers have been taking customers on a ride by imposing unexplained fees on them! But not anymore!  I’m glad that regulatory bodies have woken up to the unfair practices of service providers and have started questioning their justness. The Federal Communications Commission questions Google and wireless service providers on the early termination fees that they are imposing on clients of wireless services. FCC enquires the leading wireless service providers, namely, AT &T, Verizon Wireless, Sprint and T-Mobile about the early termination fees and if they should be charged at all. The FCC says that there is no definite framework for service providers to charge early termination fees on their customers and such moves were questionable by the FCC. This was the reason they  [...]
