If you've been working yourself to the bone and promising yourself that you'll ask for the raise when things start looking up — this might be a good time to do it. Things are looking better and according to economists at Econbrowser, which analyzed the 2012 Economic Report of the President, ". . . one would be hard pressed to find American business in terrible shape. Productivity has Read more
Being a stay-at-home mom is an anomaly of a lifestyle. It's one of the only "jobs" around where it's absolutely mandatory to be on call 24/7, 365 days a year. And it's also the only job that's this demanding, yet comes without a salary. Needless to say, we were intrigued to discover Investopedia's "How Much Is a Homemaker Worth?" Check out their calculations below, and tell us whether you think Read more
There are too many families who were taken by surprise when one breadwinner suddenly lost his or her job, but some couples might choose to give up an income for one reason or another. Maybe one person was offered a job in another city, leaving the other one without employment, the couple wants one parent to stay home with the kids, one half of the duo is miserable at work and wants out ASAP, etc. Read more
