Everyone wants to know the best ways to save money. I have compiled a list of what I beleive to be the top 10 most effective ways to save money. Enjoy!

1. Request a rate reduction or consolidate your credit cards. Some companies are willing to lower their interest rates if you are willing to make a phone call. It's worth a shot. If they say no, well then look at option number two, which is to consolidate your credit cards into a low 0% interest credit card. While your interest is low or at 0% continue making payments on your new card for the same amount as all the card payments combined, this will help pay off your debt quicker.


2. Request for a reduction in the interest rate for your home equity line of credit Just like with the credit cards most financial companies will allow you to request a rate reduction, or at least give you an option for a refinance. Before you decide what you're going to do make sure you have compared interest rates. Click here to compare rates.


3. Refinance you mortgage This one takes a little more thought. Interest rates are low again which means it's time to look at those refinance options again. When you refinance it's very important to look at all the prices involved. If you can lower your rate and say save $100 a month and you have to pay $3000 to do it, that would mean it would take 30 months to earn back the $3000 you had to pay to save $100 a month. So before you refinance you need to think about how long you plan on living there, how much it's going to cost, and how much you will save each month. Click Here for a great place to start


4. Subscribe to magazines that are must reads or free If you can't afford whats inside don't buy it!


5. Buy your car over the internet


6. Get a rewards card


7. Shut vents in unused rooms This isn’t advisable if you have forced air heating, but shutting vents in unused rooms can save on your heating and cooling bill.


8. Get healthy Your health will directly impact the cost of life insurance and, in some cases, can reduce the cost of your health insurance. One of he the things my family and I have started to do is take the Acai Berry every morning. This is the new super food that Opera was ranting and raving about. It's great for losing weight too, I lost 27 in my first month and I feel great! Get your fre trial here. (just make sure you load a gift card with the money for shipping so you don't have to eorry about canceling the free trial.)


9. Stop smoking This is a no brainer. I don't need to say anymore. Click here for some help quiting.


10. Drink less alcohol It costs money and ads calories.

Learn How to Fix Your Credit

First things first you have to CHECK your credit to know what type of problems you actually have. To check your credit I recomend Equifax. Equifax is one of the three credit bureaus and it's the one that is used the most so if something is on your Equifax report it's probably on the Trans Union and Experian.


Manage Your Credit with Equifax


You can also use ConsumerDirect to check ALL four scores!




After you get your credit report it's time to do something about it. Below are my top sites that offer credit repair.

LifeLock Identity Theft Services - this site is one of the most reputable and safe sites to use. They offer services to repair credit if it is your mistake or even if someone steel your ID. Get 10% off if you sign up now.


LifeLock Take Control


ConsumerDirect - They offer Free Credit Scores, Credit Fix & other services. The price with consumer direct is very cheap too. So if you need some help this site would work really well for you.




If you're wanting legal assistance then Ovation Law might be better for you then the others.

Denied For A Bank Account?

Have you recently been declined for a bank account? Are you tired of overdraft fee after overdraft fee? If you answered yes to either of these then it's time to think about another option. There are several different companies out there that offer pre-paid visa/master cards. For anyone that does not want to worry about overdraft fees or has been declined to open an account this is a great alternative for you. Below are the two best sites to do just that.

Vision Premier Prepaid Visa is the first of the two. This visa card offers direct deposit so you can stop paying check cashing fees if you don't have an account. Also if you don't have enough money, the card stops! This is huge if any of you have ever had and overdraft fee before, bank debit cards don't always stop.


Visa Prepaid Card


The next one is AccountNow Vantage Debit MasterCard. This card is cool if you like doing banking online. With this card you are able to do online banking and even do online check writing. It also helps you build your credit up so if you have bad credit this is a great place to start to fix it.


The perfect alternative to a checking account

Credit Cards

Now as you read above one of the easy ways to free up some money is by consolidating credit cards onto one low interest rate card by doing balance transfers. This is a wonderful thing to do! BUT, you need to find the right credit card with the right offer. Below are a few links to different credit card companies. Look at all of them to decide what is going to be best for your situation. I recomend doing a balance transfer about once every two years, unless there is a big emergency and you need to free money up right away, or if a GREAT offer is presented to you.

CreditAxis.com is a credit & loan site that finds financing for any credit profile. This is a HUGE thing because it is very hard for people with bad credit to get credit cards.

Loans

If you have decided that you need a loan, maybe for re-financing, consolidation, or even just for extra cash flow then the following few links are going to help you out. I'm only going to explain the top sites and then I'll have some extra ones that I'm still researching. If you don't find what you're looking for feel free to use the google search bar at the top of this page.

One of my favorite things is to find sites that offer approvals to all credit types. It's very hard for people to re-establish themselves and I really like when I come accross a site that helps with just that. Abacus Credit is a great site to get financing if you have bad credit, they take all credit types.


Guaranteed Personal Loans - Bad Credit Welcome


MyAutoLoan.com is another site that I like. I recently purchased my first home and I used this web site to find the loan that I needed. You do one application and get up to four different loan offers. One thing to know about purchasing or refinancing your home is that if you apply with multiple companies within a 2 week period the credit bureu won't ding you on your credit report because they know you are rate shopping. This web site makes doing rate shopping really easy.




Cash Central is a great place to go if you need money right away. Now, as a personal banker, I will worn you that pay day loans can be scary. I recomend to only use a pay day loan if you have 100% no other option. If that is the case then out of all the pay day loan sites I recomend Cash Central.




My second favorite site for pay day loans is Team Quick Cash.


Get cash when you need it most!
