One of my favorite parts of the 14-Day Credit Challenge is the “buried treasures” lesson because it gives students an opportunity to have massive personal growth and development.
You see, when I teach people how to find their buried treasures, I also give them a financial tip about changing their mindset. After all, finding money won’t change your life if you rush out and spend it frivolously.
Instead, I give them a financial tool for personal growth and development.
It’s called the “Hour Factor™ question.”
Let me explain …
Instead of considering price alone, always consider the “Hour Factor™” before making a purchase. The Hour Factor™ is the number of hours you will need to work to pay for something.
And this number is a better indicator than the price. From a personal growth and development perspective, the most valuable thing we have is time … time with our families, time pursuing our passions, time enjoying life. When you buy something, y

Just last week, Florida’s Fourth District Court of Appeals held that the Florida Insurance Guaranty Association (“FIGA”) wrongly denied a policyholder’s claim and was obligated to pay attorney’s fees and costs. In Rahabi v. FIGA, the appellate court distinguished the holding from its earlier case, FIGA v. Ehrlich, which was just decided in May of this year. I wrote about Ehrlich in my May 9, 2011 post titled Recent Ruling Concerning Attorney’s Fees And The Florida Insurance Guaranty Association. In Ehrlich, the Court held that FIGA was not responsible for attorney’s fees since it did not deny the policyholder’s claim by affirmative action. In Ehrlich, the trial court had ordered FIGA to answer the complaint in the lawsuit, and pursuant to that order, FIGA raised affirmative defenses.
Generally, FIGA assumes the liabilities of insolvent insurance companies and pursuant to Florida Statute Chapter 631, possesses the rights, duties, defenses and obligations of the insolvent insurer. Florida Statute

Although there are a number of websites that advertise that you can check your credit report or get your credit scores for free, you must watch out. There is a catch here and even though they mention the word ‘free’ these reports actually cost money. You may take a look at some of these websites to see what they actually charge.
Prior to checking anything you must know the basic difference between credit scores and credit reports. A credit report will show all the accounts that are in your name, the details regarding how long you have had the account, the amount you owe, your payment history etc. Whereas, a credit score on the other hand is just a three-digit number and can range anywhere from 300 to 850 and lenders use this score to base their lending decisions. The highest number would be the best score and the lowest the worst score.
There are a number of websites that are advertised very heavily. The

New statistics suggest that consumers are taking advantage of Private Mortgage Insurance to help them purchase better quality housing without putting down large sums of money.
Private Mortgage Insurance (PCI) is specialized insurance which is required by lenders on mortgages which are for more than 80 percent of the properties value. When a homeowner is not able to put don more than 20 percent as a deposit on their new home, then the lender ill require that they fork out cash for Private Mortgage Insurance.
One of the main reasons behind lenders insistance on homeowners purchasing Private Mortgage Insurance is so that the lender is protected in the event of the borrower defaulting on their mortgage.
However, consumers also benefit from this as it allows them to purchase a better home than they would have without the larger don payment.
