My recent post Are You A Financial Sinner Round Up and Uncommon Money News
Thanks for hosting with such a fun theme! I would never have guessed that Jennifer Aniston was worth that much. I guess $1 million an episode x ?? will add up fast!
My recent post 5 Budget Skin Care Tips
Hey Kay,
You are some welcome. It was my pleasure hosting. Love her or not, Jennifer Aniston is still a major Hollywood player. For a while, she was demanding $20 million per movie. I heard that she gets somewhat less now, but she also has 12 projects currently in the works. She's not going anywhere soon!
My recent post Why Do We Save Anyway
Great article. This is a subject that everyone loves. As a celebrity personal assistant myself, I can tell you that many high net worth families and celebs can be VERY frugal. Sometimes they have a $2000 dinner and don't leave a tip.

Since the admin of this website is working, no doubt very quickly it will be renowned, due to its feature contents.
This is really helpful. Thanks for sharing this information. Special thanks to the people who came up with cheatsheets.
Movements of financial capital are normally dependent on either credit or equity transfers. Credit is in turn dependent on the reputation or creditworthiness of the entity which takes responsibility for the funds. Credit is also traded in financial markets. The purest form is the credit default swap market, which is essentially a traded market in credit insurance. “,
Best wishes

Hello would you mind letting me know which web host you’re utilizing?
I’ve loaded your blog in 3 different internet
browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most.
Can you recommend a good web hosting provider at a fair price?
Thanks a lot, I appreciate it!
Having read this I believed it was rather enlightening.
I appreciate you taking the time and effort to
put this informative article together. I once again find myself personally spending way too
much time both reading and posting comments.
But so what, it was still worth it!
Heya i’m for the first time here. I found this board and I find It really useful & it
helped me out much. I hope to give something back and help others like you helped
me.
Lenders, such as banks and credit card companies, use credit scores to evaluate the potential risk posed by lending money to consumers and to mitigate losses due to bad debt. Lenders use credit scores to determine who qualifies for a loan, at what interest rate, and what credit limits. Lenders also use credit scores to determine which customers are likely to bring in the most revenue. The use of credit or identity scoring prior to authorizing access or granting credit is an implementation of a trusted system.`^
All the best
