The Week in Review: Money Issues #11

“The Week in Review: Money Issues” is my weekly blog research on financial topics that define us as Americans, and shape the way we should do business.

Hello, my friend (sorry, too much news lately)!

This has been an unbelievable week for yours truly. Not only did my Fighting Phils knock ‘em out of the park on Wednesday, but so did my man Obama! I’m getting so tired of the fear-mongering that has gone on for way too long (eight years to be exact) and I for one think we really need to start focusing on getting our ailing economy out of the garbage! Let’s drop the Democrat, Republican, Liberal, and Conservative titles they label us with and work together to really change things. I personally think we should kick out all the idiots up on the hill who are trying to divide us! We the people, collectively, can do this on November 4th …

Ok, enough of my craziness, here goes my weekly reviews:

MLB FANHOUSE: The Phillies Win the Pennant. Ok, this has nothing to do with making money (unless you’re Pete Rose) but I just felt like including it. It’s been a long time coming, and I can’t wait to see what’s next! BTW: the reader’s comments really cut this joykill writer down pretty hard (make it to the bottom of the page for some laughs).

The Huffington Post: Joe the Plumber, Obama and McCain. McCain (with a pissed off, robotic voice): “I must say and do whatever I think is going to get me in office. I must lie, and keep those lies rolling.” Palin (in an over-exaggerated hokey accent): “I know Joe the Plumber … You betcha!” Me: It’s old clowns! Pack your bags, you’re going home!”

Wowowow: How Much Money Would Obama’s and McCain’s Tax Plans Save (or Cost) You? I easily found out that I am going to save with Obama (without any political doublespeak)! Go ahead, give it a shot (then get out of this site unless you like mushy topics)!

3news: Last Titanic survivor sells mementos to raise cash. Things are getting tough all over! Somebody should get a donation together so this poor lady doesn’t have to turn her personal stuff over to a museum, that’s just going to exploit it for profit anyway! Grab something else, like that big diamond from the movie, you creeps!

Urlesque: When Money’s Tight and Hobo Stew Won’t Cut It. Whaaaattt? Ok, this article is absurd, but with all this economy stuff plugging up valuable blogspace, it’s the best I could find! Let’s hope this situation changes for the better soon!

If you liked these articles, or even if you didn’t, and have a few seconds to spare, please send me your feedback so I can learn from my mistakes. Also, I’d really be interested in hearing what direction you want my writing to go in (I really would) so let me know that as well and I’ll try to accommodate you.

Also, if you haven’t already, please subscribe to our feed or email, so you can receive instant notification of new posts from us (me and Geoff) each weekday.

Catch you on Monday — now go have some fun! (me, giving you a virtual fist-pound)!
