Hey it’s that time again to talk about the brands that I love in the world. HA I crack myself up, but hey if you don’t take life litely than what’s the point. These brands represent in my opinion great brands we all must own or support. Let’s give props to these companies as they make some excellent products for all of us to enjoy. The range of products consists of clothing to bicycles to some great sounding home theater speakers. What can you say about the old man in the product bunch, Schwinn, as they have been in business for decades way before any of these other brands even existed.

Best Brands that I Love V:

• ·         Buffalo Clothing
• ·         Toastmaster’s
• ·         Schwinn Bicycles (Est. 1895)
• ·         Terra (Veggie Snacks)
• ·         Bose Home Speakers
• ·         Hamilton Watches (Great American Watch Co.)
• ·         Google (GMAIL & Android)
• ·         Woot! Website (Amazon Owned)

One thing I must admit to my readers is that Bose radios do not work well with CD’s or DVD’s that are reproduced copies. This is the only bad experience I have had with any of these products. Besides the one negative by Bose, the home speakers work flawlessly with superb sound quality. I hear things I never heard before when watching a movie that I had seen previously.

The Woot Website is a great website that has offers galore. The products they sell are always discounted by at least 20% or more when compared to retail prices. Recently they expanded to offer a variety of sister sites like Woot Sport or Woot Home. To add insult to injury and to further explain that the rich get richer, Amazon the world’s largest online retailer bought the Woot website and has expanded it to a monster.

Toastmaster’s is a great organization that can give you the confidence you need to develop communications skills. I have benefitted extremely from the support and knowledge of attending regular meetings at my current employer sponsored club.. If your company offers this service then please consider attending as you will grow as a leader.

Hamilton Watches is a another great brand. I would consider them to be low to mid range in price. But the quality and workmanship behind the brand is at a respectable level for my taste. If you feel the need to splurge once you are out of debt and have a minimum of $400 dollars to spend on a good timepiece then consider Hamilton. Well that sums it up for the brands that I love series for this quarter. Let me know what brands you want me to mention here and I will check them out and give them a shout out if they pass my rigorous brand review test.

Comment if you have had a good or bad experience with any of these brands that I love V?

Hey friends it is that time again to share some good brand acknowledgement info for all of you. I do this so you can be a better consumer and shopper of the good brands and not the crummy ol’ nasty ones. Chime in any time you want and let us know if you like or dislike these brands and give reasons why. Some of these you have probably supported before and you probably have some cool memories with them as well. For example you’re first Mattel Race car or the first time you tasted a Chips Ahoy Cookie. (Good Memories I must admit)

Brands that I Love IV:

• Tissot Watches

• Lee Jeans (Not for everybody but durable)

• Nabisco

• Mazda (Fun to Drive)

• Mattel

• Archer Farms (Food)

• Vanguard

• Mr. Coffee (Budget based Small Appliances)

Folks this is my personal list of brands that I love. I support all of these companies, and will continue to talk positively about them for many years to come. For example my very first car was a Mazda and I have done a complete 360 and I once again own a Mazda car. This car better not let me down because I like the brand and I do not want things to change in the near future. So far it has been a pleasure to drive the car. Vanguard has been the best and easily the cheapest option to invest retirement funds into. They are always available on the phone if you have questions, they also provide a plethora of options for all your investing needs. If a fund has a .10 expense fee annually then that just means more returns in your pocket and less to pad the massive pockets of the CEO’s. If you were to leave a job and you had a 401K, if I were you I would immediately roll it over into a Vanguard IRA. It’s a no brainer in my book.

Archer Farms is a great all natural subsidiary brand from Target Inc. They have many regular staple items to fill your pantry from top to bottom. Some of the products are unique flavors that you would have never even thought of yourself to make. Try out the Archer Farms Blue chips with flax seeds at your next Party, excellent taste. Give them a shot the next time you’re in target and you will not be disappointed.  Mr. Coffee is a great brand because they provide budget priced coffee makers. These things can put money in your pocket; the average cup of coffee brewed in one of these will cost you maybe .20 cents. Now if you go to Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks every day then you will be paying 5X-7X that rate. It may take you a few times brewing it yourself to get the hang of how you like the flavor, plus you can add creamers to the mix to spice things up. Now that you have the premise of why I promote these brands, below you will see them again with the stock symbol if they are a public company. Invest at your own risk, ha ha.

Tissot Watches – Swatch Group Inc. (Swiss Stock -SIX)

Lee Jeans – VF Corp Company (Stock – VFC)

Nabisco – Mondelez Int. formerly Kraft foods (Stock –MDLZ)

Mazda – Mazda Corp. (ADR-MZDAF)

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:
