BillShrink $250 Cash Giveaway Winner Announced!

Last week, I announced a money giveaway offered by BillShrink, where a randomly selected commenter would be awarded $250 in cash. I requested for you to help name BillShrink’s website model and to check out their tools, which aim to help you save money on your gas bills, cell phone plans and credit card payments.

Not an accurate representation of the actual prize, but close enough.

Well, the time has finally come for the winner to be announced! My random pick is comment #16, by “jen”, who supplied four interesting names for the model, funny enough! But out of the four names (Billie, Penny, Dolores N. Cents, Payshence Saves ;) ), I guess I’d like to settle on the conventional name “Penny”. It’s simple and fits the “pretty penny” mold, which is what BillShrink helps you save. So I’ll be getting in touch with jen soon to send her the $250 prize.

And for all those of you who joined our giveaway, I would like to say a heartfelt thanks for taking the time to check out BillShrink and for leaving us a comment. I hope to get the opportunity to hold more giveaways like this in the future!


Let’s now check on this week’s great bunch of reads from some of my favorite financial talking heads. As always, it’s a list I enjoyed putting together:

Stock Market Timing: Advice For Investors

Should you time the market? There’s an easy, short answer and there’s the longer one. The short reply is “no”, a stance which many financial experts will advocate, especially for regular (small) investors. But then again, you think about all the pain caused by the recent stock market implosion and you’d argue that “yes”, market timing would have saved you more than a bundle if you could have done it right.

Great Stock Market Performance, But Will Dow 9,200 Hold?

Thoughts on the Dow Jones over the 9,000 mark. Stock Market Performance: Any Cause To Rejoice? At the beginning of this month, I wrote an article inquiring whether the economic downturn was over . I wrote about the use of an interesting economic indicator that could herald the end of the slump if you take stock of what some economic analysts are saying. That indicator is the jobless claims number — once it peaks, then falls, it’s supposed to signal the bottom of the recession — and as they say, there’s nowhere to go but up! But that article attracted a lot of cautious responses. People told me to “listen to my spouse” who continues to be skeptical about all this talk of recovery, and who still believes that we’ve got a ways to go with this recession. His view

Got to wring out all the negativity that’s still weighing upon the fundamentals: massive deficit, foreclosures and bad loans, loan defaults, tottering banks, unemployment

Investing Money In Stocks, Mutual Funds and ETFs

Learning to invest? Tim Parker from Elementary Finance covers some of the basics of stocks, mutual funds and ETFs. If I were to ask 10 everyday people to tell me what they think of stocks, ETFs, and mutual funds, I bet the results would look something like this: All of them would have some preconceived notion about stocks. Most of them would have heard of mutual funds. And maybe 1 or 2 would know about ETFs. Interestingly, the ETF, although widely unknown, is one of the fastest growing investment products in the financial realm. But let’s take a look at all three of these financial vehicles and see how they stack up
