Really I am looking for one which has either an international debit card or an associated credit card as I will be travelling at the end of the year for 3 months in SE Asia and then over to China and if its one where money can be set up to automatically be skimmed into a savings account that would also help, otherwise it gets complicated as to what money is being transferred where.

Also looking for other benefits as well such as best interest rate, lowest overdraft fees etc. At the moment I have a standard HSBC account, which at least would have the advantage of there being loads of machines to use, although from what I can gather you would get charged for this overseas - bit ludicrous to me but there you go.

I'm in a financial rut right now and I've been contemplating whether or not to sell my benz. I still owe $6000 on it, but I have credit cards, and other things to pay off. My dad drives an Acura that has some miles on it, but it's paid off, and he's thinking about buying a new car anyway. $6000 or a lil more would pay off all my debt, and I'd be debt free. I live at home right now, so I wouldn't owe any payments on anything, and that way I could save up to later put a down payment on a new car. I need help though because I LOVE my car so I'm having a tough time making a decision, any suggestions?? Could I sell my benz for a lil more than what I owe on it?

I reckon on winning 14M GBP, I've already started dipping into my overdraft on the strength of this forthcoming win..should I keep a few million 'liquid' for everyday spending, or pretty much invest nearly the lot?

All these credit card companys send out checks that enables you to write them for the amounts allowed ...sometimes thousands of dollars...I get several every week in the mail...Seems like an awful lot of money at your finger tips....Has anyone ever took advanage of this knowing they cant pay it back and has anyone ever try to beat the system without paying it back

My occupational pension scheme payment offsets my state pension by £74.12???. this is called the SERPS opt out clause. more like a stealth clause.

Yet one more way to let the pensioners feel a burden upon society having contributed for some 50 years.

I feel for our son's and daughters, who prepare in the same way as us parents, do they all know the treasury is also preparing, to share their fate?.

Why dose the Inland Revenue contact the pensioners after the age of 65, asking for their savings account details?, and is it the norm?.

Is it realy any benefit to this next generation of pensioners to save for their retirement, given it appears to me one would be looked after anyway?

Can a homeowner refinance their home for the remainder of it's value if they have already refinanced it for a large part of that value within the last 3-4 months. My girlfriend and i would like to take out the remainder of the homes value (approx $8000-$8500) for a very important school,but she just refinanced the house 3-4 months ago for a loan already and she was told by a friend of hers that she (the friend) didn't think it would be possible. The home was valued at approx 100k.

I've got 18 years until retirement and I'm looking at buying a home. I was planning on a 15 year mortgage so I could own the joint when I'm retired. My lender is trying to sell me on 30 yr vs 15 year mortgage. He says with the 30 year, I can invest the monthly difference in payments about $500.00/ month in a tax deferred account and be way ahead in 15 years...I could pay off the mortgage and have big money in my pocket vs. just paying off the mortgage.(with a 15 yr mortgage). What doesn't make sense to me is the fact that today's loan rates don't seem to allow sufficient spread against what I could earn with conservative investing. A 6.2 to 7% mortgage rate seems like the same percent return I might get from a reasonably diversified investment. This seems to me like a wash. What am I not understanding? FWIW I am pretty good at saving. I'm an Automatic Millionare in the making....not boasting but I read that book and found it mirrored the stuff I've already been doing with my finances
