The Super Bowl is this weekend and how can you think of the Green Bay Packers without thinking of Coach Lombardi? He has become an icon for excellence that transcends sports. We often see quotes and pictures of the legendary coach around people and things associated with success.

Pay it forward. It helps keep the budget in line.
I'm on a new kick. Laundering money. At least it feels that way...
We all know that a cardinal rule of personal finance is, "Don't spend money you don't have." Easier said than done, right? I have a Upromise MC. We're trying to stuff a few extra bucks into the 529's we have set up for the kids #CollegeNextYear! Upromise gives 1-5% cash back on all purchases made with the card. It's not a ton of money but we might as well get something for spending.
One of the features I like most about this cc, unlike other cards is that I can transfer more money to the card than my current balance (up to $500, same with AMEX). I love it! It's a great budgeting tool. I can better plan out and pay for the coming week of spending with $$ I HAVE. Remember the days before the now ubiquitous online account management/billing/payment functions? Get that cc bill and hold your breath opening it to see what the damage was for the month? That was like driving a car on the highway blindfolded! (Many of our younger friends never felt that pain #ShockAndAwe)

Help someone get an early start. They will be benefit greatly.
I've spent much of my time at home trying to figure out if I should be worried. Another chapter in my personal "define your reality" series... What I have learned is that I put a tremendous asset on my side: time.

Pop Quiz: What's the real deal? Do the math...
They say that education is the great equalizer.
Let's apply that to our shopping efforts and take a step toward leveling the playing field. The playing field is not level.
