			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><br/><strong><i>Question by little hand</i>: I got approved for a credit union secured card that reports only to Trans Union?</strong><br/>I want to build a good credit , does that mean I should not complete the process ?<br/><br/><strong>Best answer:</strong><br/>
<p><i>Answer by Cold</i><br/>These credit unions do not have the funds to report to all three bureaus.Why would you get a card that only reports to one bureau.Besides, many people consider TransUnion the bottom of the pile.Get a card through Citi Bank or Orchard.They carry among the best.Both of these report to all three credit bureaus.In the future you could end up at a car dealership that only looks at one of the credit bureaus (again to save money).  What are you going to do if they see you have absolutely no credit history?&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;Afterthought:  Have you tried applying for a regular credit teased?You are established with that bank, you might just get it.If you do, do sure you pay in full each month.Just wished using the secure card, you replace the money in full each month.Carrying balances is a good way to destroy credit..</p>

<p><i>Answer by webwanderer</i><br/>Just go the website of any of the credit reporting agencies and they should have instructions as to how to get your free credit report.  If you want to monitor your credit, get your free credit report from each agency every four months.  In other words, do one agency in January, another agency in May, and the final one in October.  If you do this every year, you will be &#8220;up to date&#8221; with your credit report every four months.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><br/>Simple Steps to Protect Your Identity this Holiday Season &#13;        &#13;      &#13;    &#13;    &#13;          &#13;        &#13;    &#13;    &#13;    &#13;    &#13;        &#13;                  &#13;
<p class="releaseDateline">Columbus, Ohio (PRWEB) November 17, 2011 </p>
<p> The busiest shopping time of the year is here. Deal-seeking shoppers will hit the stores early to take advantage of massive Black Friday sales, and even more will shop online for discounted holiday gifts on Cyber Monday. </p>
<p>&#13;
<p>With all the credit and debit transactions that will be coming through, shoppers need to remain alert to avoid identity theft in a time when they are the most vulnerable. Grange Insurance, a Columbus-based insurance company, offers advice for shoppers to remain protected this holiday season.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>1.    Remove extra credit cards, social security card, birth certificate and passport from your wallet or purse. &#13;<br />In the case that someone’s purse or wallet gets lost, had personal information handy for a stranger to steal do them susceptible to identity theft. If this happens, victims should call their credit card company and bank immediately to cancel account to avoid any unauthorized purchases. </p>
<p>&#13;
<p>“Social security cards, passports and birth certificates should be kept in a secure place at home,” said Mark Russell, vice president of insurance operations for Grange Insurance. “When you go shopping or out in public, only bring what you absolutely need, and never leave your wallet or purse unattended or in an automobile. These situations could give thieves easy access to your personal information.” </p>
<p>&#13;
<p>2.    Reconcile check, credit card and bank statements.&#13;<br />“Regularly review your check, credit card and bank statements to ensure that all purchases listed are legitimate and authorized,” said Russell. “If you notice any transactions that don’t belong, call your bank or credit company immediately to challenge the purchase.”</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Also, confirming that home and work mailboxes are secure for receiving important mail such as credit card and bank statements will reduce the likelihood of theft. When ordering new checks, arrange to pick them up in-person at a local bank branch.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>3.    Don’t click links in emails from financial institutions or vendors that log into your account or require personal information.&#13;<br />“Online shoppers should also be aware of emails they receive from vendors with links that, when clicked, ask you to enter personal information,” said Russell. “If you receive an email that looks like it’s from a financial institution or vendor, regardless if you’re familiar with that institution, don’t click on any links in the email to log into your account or provide information. Instead, go to your browser and type in the domain name of the institution (e.g. http://www.paypal.com). Often times, these emails are from identity thieves who are trying to obtain or phish for confidential information.” </p>
<p>&#13;
<p>4.    Consider purchasing identity theft coverage as part of your insurance policy.&#13;<br />Many insurance carriers, such as Grange, accosting identity theft coverage as part of or an endorsement to their homeowner’s or renter’s policy, according to Russell. Adding identity theft protection to a policy will provide some coverage in the case that identity theft passing. Policy owners should check with their independent insurance agent to confirm what options and assistance are available. </p>
<p>&#13;
<p>“In addition to adding identity theft protection to your insurance policy, consider the monitoring and security options that your credit card company or other vendors offer,” said Russell. “Many companies offer protection tools, such as transaction alerts, to help their customers become less vulnerable to a breach.”</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>5.    Check your credit score. &#13;<br />Holiday shoppers should also recall to check their credit score annually. Companies such as TransUnion, Experian and Equifax offer free yearly credit reports that allow shoppers to analyze their score for any suspicious activity. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><br/>Financial Resolution Center Reports 2012 New Year Resolutions Target Financial Success &#8211; Seven Ways to Improve Financial Awareness &#13;        &#13;      &#13;    &#13;    &#13;          &#13;        &#13;    &#13;    &#13;    &#13;    &#13;        &#13;                  &#13;
<p class="releaseDateline">Sacramento, CA (PRWEB) January 16, 2012 </p>
<p> Consumers should question their confidence in their financial future. There is a fine line between financial distress and a future that is financially stable. Unfortunately, some people are unaware that they are on the verge of financial ruin until it is too late. Becoming financially secure can only be accomplished by consciously recognizing that there is a financial issue. According to the Chief Adviser for Financial Resolution Center,” The sooner people realize they’re having issues with debt, the better the chance they have at resolving it and becoming financially secure for the future.”</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Financial Resolution Center suggests that individuals make a honest assessment of the state of their financial affairs. Below is a list of warning signs. If at least three of these signs are true, individuals may be moving toward financial ruin.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Balancing Bills and Paying Late Fees</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>The inability to pay bills on time and constant occurrence of late fees are signs of financial disturbing. Incurring late fees as a result of a deficiency of money and live pay check to subsidize check can cause people to go further into debt. Also, only making minimum payments to keep accounts open will never pay off a balance on time or in fully. Barely managing revolving debt will only lead to an increase in the balances.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Relying on Future Income</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Relying on a future source of income, like a tax refund, is a quick way to create a negative financial situation. Hoping to run into money is an unrealistic way to handle personal finances. This approach will cause future financial problems. </p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Dependent on Credit</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>A consistent dependency on credit cards as a means of extra income is a financial mistake. Credit cards should be relied upon for large purchases and paid off monthly. Using credit cards to pay for everyday purchases or shifting balances to unexampled cards is a bad financial decision. Should there be any unexpected changes in pricing or absorb rates, people who am on credit will find themselves in financial turmoil.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Arguments Over Finances</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Regular arguments with a spouse or partner over money are also indications of a poor financial condition. Fights amongst couples over finances are not unusual. However, fighting over finances means that unnecessary spending is being made with money needed to maintain the household.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>A Lack of Personal Savings</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Budgets should permitted small amounts of money to be set aside for savings. If there is no room in the budget for relieving, the financial situation is not viable. Setting aside money for savings may be tough, but not saving can be detrimental to whatsoever financial situation. The Chief Adviser for Financial Resolution Center informs that to be in good financial shape, there should be some form of savings for emergencies. A dependency on credit cards is not an appear financial decision.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Spending Money to Pay Overdraft Fees</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>There are several reasons why a person pays overdraft fees. If these fees are a result of frequently overdrawing an account, then the financial health may be poor. Having these fees occur often will only exacerbate a bad situation because it limits the amount of income available to cover debts.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Depleting Retirement Savings</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Using retirement savings to pay for expenses is something frequently done by people in a bad financial position. Financial Resolution Center cautions against taking out more than one 401K loan. Borrowing more than once against a 401k loan can be detrimental to a sustainable financial future. It also threatens any growth potential of a retirement account. </p>
<p>&#13;
<p>Let 2012 be the year to regain financial control. Use Financial Awareness Month as a motivator factor to take the righting steps to a good financial outlook.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><br/>NJ Divorce Advisors, LLC Announces Seven Ways To Protect Yourself Financially In A Divorce &#13;        &#13;      &#13;    &#13;    &#13;          &#13;        &#13;    &#13;    &#13;    &#13;    &#13;        &#13;                  &#13;                  &#13;
<p class="releaseDateline">Red Bank, NJ (PRWEB) November 10, 2011 </p>
<p> Divorces can be ugly. Even if you think your soon-to-be ex is trustworthy, scorned spouses can be vicious. What better way to screw up someone’s life then by draining a bank account or destroying one’s credit? It happens a lot. While one article can’t tell you every way to protect yourself or offer specific legal advice to your situation, New Jersey Divorce Advisors, LLC, has partnered with Family Attorney Richard Panitch of Marks &amp; Klein, LLP to compile seven ways you can protect yourself financially if you’re going through a divorce:</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>1.  Get a free credit report: You’re probably saying to yourself, “I know my credit score and my debt situation.” That might very well be true, but many times, a spouse won’t tell you they bought that new sofa they always wanted with your joint credit card. Then they’ll try to make you pay for it. In the case of infidelity, cheating spouses often have a motivation to hide certain charges and assets from you. One way to do a quick health check on your debt is to review your credit reports issued by the three major credit reporting companies: TransUnion, Experian and Equifax. You can get a free credit report from all three, once a year by going to the web site: http://www.annualcreditreport.com. Caution: Many credit score companies try to make lots of money by monitoring your credit for you. For the most part, you don’t need a service and the above reports are totally free.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>2.  Figure out your assets and liabilities: Check your bank statements, brokerage accounts, and credit card statements. Be sure to check for new accounts for which you’re not aware. Even if one spouse is unaware that a debt exists, he or she can be held liable for repayment after the divorce is finalized. While a spouse in New Jersey has a duty to be forthcoming about assets under the state’s matrimonial law, not every spouse takes that duty to heart. The best way you can protect yourself is to be educated. An experienced lawyer and capable financial team can also help tremendously.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>3.  Figure out the cost basis of investments: Do you know the tax implications of your investments? A 50-50 split might not be as equitable as you think. If one of your stocks has appreciated significantly since you purchased it, you’ll be paying capital gains taxes on those appreciated shares when you sell. You might also be in a situation where your largest marital assets are illiquid — can’t be converted into cash — such as a retirement plan or your personal residence. You must consider tax consequences, early withdrawal penalties, and transaction costs to equally divide assets.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>4.  Stop putting your paychecks into a joint checking account: Too many terrible tales exist beginning with the words, “My spouse is very trustworthy and we’ve always put the money in the joint account to share expenses.” That warm fuzzy feeling doesn’t last when the other spouse writes a check and cleans out that joint account. With most joint accounts, either party can go in and remove funds without the other’s permission. The best way to protect yourself is to set up a separate account in your name only. Again, a good financial advisor can ensure accounts are titled correctly.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>5.  Stop the joint credit cards: If you have opened credit card accounts with your spouse, put some protections in place. Cancel the joint cards. Even if you both agree that one spouse will be responsible for that credit card, the bank has both of your guarantees and doesn’t have to honor the agreement between you and they won’t. The credit card company just wants its money back plus interest. Protect yourself. If you must have joint credit cards, establish low credit limits with the financial institution and make sure you confirm the arrangement in writing.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>6.  The Settlement Agreement matters and it matters a lot: In New Jersey, most divorce cases are settled by what we call a Property Settlement Agreement. This agreement disposes of not only the property and financial issues in a divorce, but also child support, alimony and custody issues. The language of that agreement matters. The Court doesn’t rule on whether the settlement is fair. They rule on whether the agreement was voluntary and if the parties believe it’s fair. If you’re decision proves to be unwise, you’ll be stuck with that agreement once the Court rules. Don’t write this agreement yourself. It’s never a good idea. Lawyers and financial planners who work in this area are trained to think about important issues that most individuals might not. These can include rebuilding, estate planning issues, avoiding IRS penalties and liability, life insurance (making sure the children are protected in case of tragedy), dealing with privately held businesses, college fiscal planning and so on.</p>
<p>&#13;
<p>7.  Update your Estate Planning Documents and Beneficiary Designations: Many people don’t realize that beneficiary designations on accounts such as IRAs, 401(k)s, pensions and annuities supersede what is written in a Will. We’ve heard so many stories about a flush individual dying and his or her ex-spouse from 20 years prior receiving a significant sum of money. This happens when the decedent fails to update a beneficiary designation. A good practice, whether divorcing or not, is to review beneficiary designation forms annually. With all the effectual, financial, and emotional chaos a divorce tin bring, many populate forget to update their estate planning documents. Do you really want to leave all your worldly possessions to your soon-to-be ex? Do you really want your soon-to-be ex acting as your Power of Attorney if you become incapacitated?</p>
<p>&#13;

<p> top ten global trends in spa for 2012 are: </p>
<p> 1.) Healthy Feet Treatments<br /> delicate human foot contains 33 joints, 26 bones and 126 muscles, ligaments and nerves &#8211; that women regularly squeeze into high heels.
