Brands that I Love – Series III

I wanted to keep this series going and let all my readers know what are the brands that I love? How would this help any of you? Maybe you can support them if a credible source recommends them and by word of mouth they are known as providers of quality products and or services. This is the third post on this topic and I am not going to repeat the brands that I love, but if a brand does a turn for the worse, then I shall put them in the brands that I hate list. In this life you can not hold on to old emotions or favoritism if a brand is no longer servicing your needs. See below for the brands that I love list:

Debt Free Living

I like giving my readers the tools they need to live life debt free. I feel that you can really put to use some of the tips I mentioned below as a way to get ahead with your financial goals.

T-Mobile Plans

What is going on with T-Mobile now a days. I recently went to a store to see if I can upgrade my cell phone and renew my two-year contract in the process. I was confused by what seemed like a simple process I had done before in the past, they are now changing the way they do business. I understand that the company has done acquisitions of other cell phone carriers in the last year, but why should the customer be penalized for that decision the company made. As soon as I got all the details of my new plan and how much the phone was going to cost me, I immediately knew that T-Mobile was tacking on extra expenses to its customers in order to regain the money they spent on other business dealings.

Best Watches List

Ok I have done a general watch post where I made it clear that watches can be used as a way to increase value over the purchase price. Watches really should be purchased for the purpose to wear and if one day you would like to upgrade you have the option of selling the watch hopefully for a profit and use the proceeds on the next timepiece. That’s one side of thinking behind watches, but there is another side that I know a lot of men desire to do and that is leave a watch to their kids as an heirloom. Below you will see the best watches list ever assembled.
