Dear friends, would you help me pick a new logo design for The Digerati Life?
Oh yeah, I need a new look! Photo by Image and Style News
Though I’ve always wanted to give this place a cosmetic face-lift over the years (goodness knows how much The Digerati Life needs it ), I’ve been [...]
FDIC insurance will cover the money you have deposited in an FDIC-insured bank or financial institution up to a certain limit in the event the cash in your bank account is no longer available from the bank. It’s important to be aware of the maxium amount that’s covered by FDIC insurance so that you don’t [...]
Were you up and out last Friday morning at 4:00am to take advantage of Black Friday sales? Me neither. I prefer to do most of my Christmas shopping online, and have taken advantage of Cyber Monday deals the last couple years.
I thought I would share with you a few gifts we have received over the [...]

The following is a guest post from Kevin Brand, SVP of product marketing for Earthlink.
1. Assess your needs. Look at the ways you use technology in your home. Take a week and monitor how often you are on the phone, watching television, or surfing the net. Once you see how much time you are using [...]

I just want to let all you would-be investors (or traders) out there know that TradeKing’s offer to give you $50 if you sign up and open an account with [...]
I’m sure I won’t be the only person to mention this event during the weekend, but I was shocked and saddened to see reports of a death in Long Island at a Wal-Mart Black Friday event.
I’m sure there are many lessons to be learned about the evils of capitalism and the pitfalls of greed, but [...]
Looking for some online Black Friday holiday sales and big discounts? Here are some Buy.com deals.
I mentioned earlier that there is no way you’ll catch me in a store today. I just don’t see the Black Friday deals in brick-and-mortal stores worth the hassle and risk. Maybe you’re thinking of donning your [...]
Black Friday deals can be pretty attractive, but be careful where you find them. In some places, they’re not worth the risk to your safety.
What is this? This isn’t a gathering for a concert, a vigil / protest, or a wild sports event.

I spend enough time on the computer I decided to it would be money well spent to upgrade from my 15″ computer monitor to something a little bigger. Of course I decided this several months ago and haven’t had time to shop around until last night.
Cruising around the web on the couch after Thanksgiving [...]
Has everyone gotten back from the Black Friday sales? I got back from my Black Friday foray a little earlier today. I would have written before now, but I had a little left-over chicken (we opted for chicken rather turkey this year - it’s just a better size for two) and dozed back [...]

We all know I’m in love with Black Friday! Whether it’s shopping resources for the big day, getting free stuff or shopping online, I think it’s such a fun event.
However, since we’re out of town, I didn’t do my usual routine. Hopefully, I’m still sleeping. (OK, I have two toddlers, that would never happen!) [...]

No Fee Rewards Credit Cards
As you may know already, I’m a big fan of no fee rewards credit cards and cash back credit cards. If you have the discipline, it’s a great way to funnel your spending to accumulate the points/cash on money that’s going to be spent anyways. Of course, these points programs only [...]
Hope everyone’s enjoying a long weekend. I had a lot of links to run through, from The Money Writers and others. I’m not kidding myself - everyone’s occupied with the holiday and enjoying themselves, not slogging through link roundups :) But if you do find yourself looking for good reading, I thought all of [...]

I admit to being put off by the commercialism of Christmas, and the entire holiday season. I’m not quite a Scrooge, but pretty close! A while back I wrote about being a reformed emotional shopper. Might sound strange coming from a guy, but it is true. I used to shop when I was sad, happy, [...]

Yesterday I did a product review of a piggy bank like device, called the MoonJar, that helps teach children how to handle money. More specifically, the Moonjar allows children to separate and store their money into 3 compartments; spending, savings, and sharing. I think that this product is great for kids as both an educational [...]
