That's right, I'm filing today's FamilyFirst pick under business. That's because, as long as you purchase any of these items for use in a work environment, they should stand up to IRS inspection as tax deductions.
Well, no guarantees, of course, except this on... continue reading...

Ah, the honor system.
It's still around, if you look hard.
We had a restaurant in my area back in the 70's that operated on the honor system. You ordered a meal, enjoyed it, then payed what you thought it was worth.
They lasted three months. That's a sad commentary on my locale in the 70's.

Java. Joe. Battery acid.
It goes by many monikers, and the fact is that a goodly portion of the world's population would suffer greatly if it ever became scarce.
Coffee is the commodity whose price jump about ten years ago was taken very hard by its billions of fans. Thankfully, i... continue reading...

I have had a reputation for years of knowing a lot about just about everything. I didn't try to do it, it just happened. I guess all of those years of watching "Jepordy" and playing "Trivial Pursuit" have finally started to pay off. At least I thought so, until I came across today's Family F... continue reading...

My oldest daughter is 20 years old and experiencing life on her own for the first time. She is learning how to manage her money, how to make payments (sometimes on time, sometimes not), and that ATMs at banks won't give you any money if your account balance is zero, no matter how ... continue reading...

Did you ever have a day where nothing seems to go right? You spilled coffee all over the report you had just finished (or worse, all over your boss!). The car won't start, and that was AFTER you changed a flat tire. Well, if you haven't had a day like that, then someone you know may have. If so, t... continue reading...
