Cheap, But Not Lazy Investment Resource

Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

First, Publisher’s Clearing House is not an investment strategy. However, if all I have to do is run one of my many daily searches from their search engine to win money, why not? Funny thing is, when my daily reminder prompts me to do this it is almost always after I have done some extensive searches on everybody’s standard search engine. This means I have to get creative on what I should search for (why waste perfectly good key strokes?). So I ran a search for highest paying dividend and ran across:

Top U.S. Stocks with Highest Dividend Yield as of Mar. 13, 2010

Managing Your Credit Score

Saturday, August 8th, 2009

I became real good at managing my credit score 30 years ago, and have just been too lazy to write it up. There is a fairly good article at Dolans.com to get you there if you don’t know how.

How is this cheap lazy investing? First, there are lots of companies that will charge you from $5 – $5,000 to do what you can do for free. And if you have ever tried doing much of anything with a bad credit rating, you know it is hard. It is less work to maintain good credit than to re-establish it, and still less work to re-establish knowing what to do than guessing.
