Money tips for those hailing from the UK

So I am looking to buy a house. One of the things I know very little about is mortgages and the many different types out there. I dont live in the UK, but when I google’d mortgage mixed in the results was this page, titled “The Thrifty Scot.” On this page was some neat information. I think the website itself is very well laid out. Like the quote says there, the site is a no nonsense, plain speaking money saving website.

As with most webpages I enjoy getting totally lost in cool pages I explore. Sometimes I find myself randomly clicking on things just to see what comes up. Often times I read so many articles I forgot why I went there. Which in this case was exactly what happened.

What’s neat is you can tell it’s a blog, but it looks so much like a blend of a hand coded website, and something computer generated. You can tell this guy put some thought into what he writes about! Even though I still dont live in the UK, I would use this site as a reference for money tips as they can apply other countries as well. Especially his Budget Planner. Very helpful if you ask me!

Movie Review Time!

So, I went and saw that movie 300. Let me just say this right off the bat… if you have not seen it YOU MUST GO SEE IT TODAY. No question about it. It makes Gladiator look like a disney movie!

The plot is nothing original by a long shot. Good guy(s) defending their country against, yep you guessed it, a bad guy who wants to take it over. But there is so much character and feeling put into the movie that you almost feel like you’re part of it. The ending is especially great. I loved how it made you get this sense of Oh my Gosh I would hate to be there! If you want to watch trailers or anything like that go to www.fandango.com and check em out there. You can even read what it is all about. I dont want to give anything away. But for the most part, this is one movie that I am willing to pay movie theater prices to go see again. That type of movie has not come out for a very very long time (at least for me.)

It seems in this world of mega corporations, there is a growing need for personal attention when dealing with important things in life. Often times you can hear people talking about how they hate talking to ‘machines.’ Huge corporations like Geico and State Farm have such large businesses that if they ‘fire’ a client because they got into an accident, they wont feel any impact from it. But when we are in a situation where we need a more personal connection, it helps to know that the company you are working with really cares for your business. This is where InsurancePortalOnline.com comes into play.
