Money

I love money when I have it, hate it when it's gone lol!! So, I have been saving all year for Christmas and last week I took £400 out of my savings in order to get a few of the larger items for my children...... Why does £400 disappear so quickly!! So anyway, within seconds of taking it out, I was already £100 down as I used this to pay some of the Christmas toy catalogue, then it was off to Carphone Warehouse where I picked up a LG Cookie touch screen phone for £60, I then popped down to town and spent £75 in B&M's on just toys, Okay so I was left with £165 give or take a couple of quid...... My partner then decided to buy a mini camcorder for £30, and ...  Read the complete review

For years I lived in a small flat spending within my means, whilst work colleagues had larger houses and regular changes of wardrobe and generally a much higher standard of living. Along came the the credit crunch and for some jobs were lost and for others overtime was scarce, the ability to borrow more money to fund their lifestyles was gone. With the value of their properties falling, suddenly they have had to face reality and are envious that I have no mortgage, no credit card debts and have savings to support myself through these times. They now worry about the future as the equity in their homes has not only decreased, but also the prospect of equity ...  Read the complete review

Some people may find that view unnacceptable and very old fashioned but I was just giving an example of how money affects people's lives ...  Read the complete review

We rarely stop and evaluate the attributes of money, but at some point, we should ask ourselves why we spend our who time devoted to getting the stuff. The main reasons are obvious- why use them to buy goods in order to live, but after analysis, money is technically worthless, allow me to explain. I believe it was Richard Feynman who said: "There are two kinds of job in this world: one involves taking things out of the earth, the other involves telling other people to take things out of the earth. One is badly paid and unpleasant, the other is well paid and very pleasant." He had a very good point- this does devalue money slightly, as it ...  Read the complete review

General disclaimer for my reviews: I have been a child of the Elohim of The Holy Scriptures (The Bible) for approximately 25 years, to date, and only recently I have come to realize just how much my trust in, devotion to, fear and worship of and love for Him and His Messiah (Yahushua/Jesus) has permeated every corner of my being, in this period of time. The realization that this bias of mine, for Him, His Word and the people He first chose to reveal Himself to, i. e. the Jewish people, may, very well, irritate, annoy or even offend some dooyoo members, who do not, at all, share my convictions, have caused me to write this disclaimer. With this ...  Read the complete review
