US Bank Corp (Desert Inn & Decatur Branch)
I never really thought I’d do this, you know, write a GOOD review about a bank, especially with the slew of bank bailouts from the government to ill-managed, greedy bank executives, but I am pleased to know that the bank I use, US Bank Corp, did need some TARP funds, …

Triad Financial aka RoadLoans
Two years ago my car died with 250,000 miles on the odometer. I was newly single, without much credit of my own, and if the truth be told, I was afraid of being rejected face-to-face if I applied for a loan at my bank or at a car …

Paypal withdrawal method
I was quite satisfied with the way Paypal handled my online transactions. Well, at least until I tried to cash my earnings, that is. For a payment processor vastly used in the Internet, Paypal limits itself with its withdrawal method.
Paypal allows withdrawal through a bank account or visa card …
Taxslayer
Uggh, tax season is upon us all again! Since every year I only have relatively simple income to report as confirmed by W-9s and a few 1099s and every year I only need to file a 1040EZ return, I’m always on the lookout for the least expensive BUT …

Western Union Money Transfer

IRS.gov
Many people hate the Internal Revenue Service. I’m not one of them. And, a big reason for that is their Web site, www.irs.gov.
