New President Day January 20, 2009
Whether you’re for or against Obama being president, it has definitely happened either way and there isn’t anything anyone can do about it now. It will be interesting to see what he has to offer and where he takes our country. Unfortunately, I think there has been too much emphasis placed on the color of his skin rather than what his plans are and what he promises to do while in office. Whatever he does, I sure hope he delivers on his promise to get the economy back on track.
I’ve noticed gas prices have risen a bit once again, but I would love it if they would go back down. Perhaps there is something he can do there as well.
Obama wants to take away payday loans from our country. He feels they are doing the economy damage. The fact is, however, payday loans are there to help people in need, and there are certain people that abuse the system – which hurts the economy. If you’re going to use a payday loan, use it responsibly. Make sure you know you will be able to pay the loan back. Follow through with your commitment. Pay off your debts.
That goes for all areas in your life. If you have debt anywhere, do what you can to pay it off. You will be so happy you did, and you will come back to this blog and say, “Lance – thank you for inspiring me to get out of debt. My life has been so great since I did so.”
Take it from your future testimonial… Get out of debt. Other than that, let’s see how Obama does!
You make some very good points. If used responsibly, payday loans can help avoid return check fees. They have a high APR, but that is because they are until your next payday. They are short term loans.
