Likewise, I was really surprised that Chase Freedom didn't make the top 5 here.

Yep, really surprised to not see Chase Freedom make top 5 here. And yes, also, IMHO it's better than a couple of cards in this article.

Had to look at the animation a couple more times to realize it's incoming, not outgoing out of his mouth ;)

$28,500 minimum for the household income. $17,500 into 403b, $5,500 in each of our IRA plans. This would be roughly 22% of our household income.

So you're not able to use them responsibly and with discipline like I have no issue with for years?

$114k is for single filers, $181k for married. Not sure whether this guy is married or not (I know a 'girlfriend' was mentioned, but that could be in the past, before marriage?) I dunno..

passively-managed index funds, IMHO. My returns are mostly based on how well markets on an overall basis is doing, won't be affected "too much" if one or two company does bad or goes under.

Smooth, boring ride, yes, but I put money into those funds and completely "forget" about it for years, only rebalancing toward my…

Notepad? Metapad?

Well, the statement "within two weeks I lost ~20 pounds" also echoes my own experience.

When I stopped drinking sugary drinks (I was drinking a number of soda cans a day), and become more conscious of my sugary consumption otherwise (cookies, etc), but not overly so, I immediately lost about 14 pounds over period of 2…

Perhaps getting smaller as a percentage, but I would think, even as a small percentage, it cannot be ignored/taken lightly. Via laptops, people are able to watch Netflix "on the go" - ie: in wifi-enabled spots.

To my knowledge, nearly all captioning done today on TV is not automated. Humans is still involved, but from what I have seen throughout the years, I believe they use some form of shorthanded typing - ie: type out a few letters, a whole word forms. But they need to proofread whatever is formed at the time, otherwise…

The suggestions for "Increase Your Retirement Contributions" doesn't seem scientific or mathematically smart to me. But then again I guess this article is mainly aimed at people who don't have much discipline in the financial arena.

Not everyone shares the same lack of discipline you do with credit cards in general.

+1 to this. I know that I want to do asset allocation, yet am afraid I will keep forgetting to rebalance it annually (or at some other intervals), so I choose a target retirement fund instead. Just a word of caution: I make sure the target fund matches up with my target asset allocation - if not, then simply pick the…

Yes, but only if it is something you would have spent on in the first place otherwise. This assumes one has discipline as well to pay the balance in full every month (or like myself, have it automatically set up to pay balance in full every month).

Strongly disagree, if one have discipline, one should make it a mathematical problem. This is how I've always approached my finances.

It's a trojan. By definition, trojans disguise themselves as legitimate applications. This isn't the first trojan, and won't be the last.

I used ABP for a long time (months), and have since moved to AdBlock (without the Plus) because of the "back button" issues with Chrome on Gawkermedia websites - ie: you hit the back button, it just takes you back to the same page you were just on. Hit back button 30 more times, you're still not back to where you…

Last 3 states I lived in require stickers on license plates. Where do you live anyway.. Hicksville, West Virginia?
