I am sure you have encountered a store or gas station that has a set of prices for cash customers and a set of prices for credit card customers. Usually the credit card customer has to pay a small surcharge. Under a new measure being considered in the U.S. Senate, retailers may be given the go ahead to give more discounts to cash paying customers. Would this encourage consumers to ditch the plastic?

A US version of the UK show The Real Hustle has been trying out some very simple but effective cons on the American public, and they’re getting away with some serious money. Watch, learn and stay alert. One of these could catch you out the next time you leave the office or home, even if it’s just to grab some quick cash from an ATM or a small bite to eat.

You can call this a defense of the maligned credit card. There are a lot of people out there who are very distrustful of credit cards and the companies that offer them, no thanks to skyrocketing personal debt loads. But I have a completely different view of these cards. They have only served as positive tools for me; in my mind, it's all a matter of how you decide to make use of them. For those who are comfortable with credit card debt management, here are some reminders of how we can get the most out of our cards.

When the going gets tough, the tough accumulate huge piles of cash. Great. But what do you do with it once you've piled it all up. There are lots of options out there, but which one is the "right" one? Buying a home? Traveling? Saving up for an upcoming baby? Keeping it as a cushion? Putting it all in a stock and doubling it? Help a cash king out...

Sit down and grab a cup of your favorite beverage. I’m about to tell you the remarkable story of a young man who has built a successful online business; one that makes in excess of $400,000 per year. And most amazing of all is not that this young entrepreneur’s site is all about parrots. It’s that he doesn’t even own a parrot.
