Remember its your money

If there’s one thing we can’t live without it is money. Not only does money makes the world go round sadly we all need it just to survive in the modern world and as long as we need money we will always need banks to keep our money in the forms of savings accounts, checking accounts and certificate of deposit accounts or CD accounts for short.

There are a lot of financial institutions out there wanting you as their customers so you as a consumer have the power to choose the banks or credit unions that can offer you the best rates for your money. Shopping around always pays off in the end but there’s just too many to choose from. This is where eMoneyCentral.com comes in; here you can find all the best rates offered by all the major financial institutions like the best savings account rate of 4.6%, checking account rate of 6% and also the best available cd rates on the market. Remember its your money and you’re the customer.

After dinner drive

Last night after dinner we went for a drive to the Brunswick library. It kind of reminded me of the times when I was still small living with my parents back in Sibu. We would go for after dinner drive around town which was nice. Well that was the times before television came into our lives.

Now our lives seem to be dictated by what's showing on TV! If there's shows we want to see on that night then there's no time for those precious little moments anymore...so sad.

Visiting New Zealand

Even though I’ve been living in Australia for the last 18 years I’ve never been to our neighbor New Zealand which is only a few hour flight away. I really should be thinking of going there one day. At the moment the New Zealand Tourism is promoting heavily in Australia trying to entice Australians to go over there for holidays.

So I will be making New Zealand my next holiday destination. There are a few New Zealand cities I would like to visit when I’m there like Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. I can find and organize my New Zealand Hotels at Cheaperthanhotels NZ. Auckland Accommodation can be found there as well as Wellington Accommodation. There’s also Christchurch Accommodation and Queenstown Accommodation all of which are easily found and booked at Cheaperthanhotels NZ. So New Zealand here I come!

Going to the shop

Went into town to get some paints for my model project. The shop I was going had a rock concert right in the front of it! Right smack in the middle of Lonsdale Street and traffic has been blocked on one side so I had to walk all around just to get to my shop.

Outside the shop the owner was arguing with the concert organizers. Apparently they've been telling people they can't get to his shop which made the shop keeper hopping mad. I went into the shop and sure enough it was quieter as usual but at least I got my paints and a needle file as well.

Customizable Flash Drives

I bought my first USB flash drive years ago when I was still working at the computer retail store. Back then it cost a bomb and the drive could only fit 512 MB of data. Nowadays you can get Flash Drives that can hold 4 GB of data at very low prices. Not only that you can get ones that double as writing instruments and even ones with cute animal designs customized to your order!

I am of course talking about the snazzy Customizable USB Flash Drives sold at Pexagon Technology. No more boring standard flash drives like what everybody else are using, personalize your flash drives with their free custom engraving with every order. There’s no minimum order so you can order as little as you like or order a few to give as gifts. There are different cool colors to choose from. Get a pen flash drive for your boss, a cute animal flash drive for your kid sister and a cool durable, aluminum design for yourself.

Stupid

Some people are compulsive liars; they just can't help themselves. Every time they open their mouths they have to lie, speak untruth or stretch the truth to put it nicely. I am of course talking about my boss' son Dean. Of all the years I've know him I've never heard him speak the truth. He does it so easily its hard to imagine him speaking any other way.

The latest lie he spoke of was telling us he had to go back to the client to pick up another job. That's the excuse he gave for slacking off work but of course one phone call to the client caught him out red handed. What did he think he could get away from lying to us? Stupid.
