I have had both and enjoy netflix more but it may come down what content you want. There is also amazon instant prime which has different content (and you get amazon free shipping).

Also look around for coupon codes for both netflix and hulu that give you a discount.

If the bands are set in your investment plan, stick to them. It is more about sticking to the plan than the actual numbers of the plan that makes it work. I would ask why you want to sell now? Any time you are up 10%, are you going to sell? If so, change your plan. If not, you are trying to time the...

Have been to many beaches in Florida. Went to Palm Coast on the Atlantic side in July and stayed at the Hammock Beach Resort. Very nice and they are running a buy one day get one free day special.

My favorite site is www.slickdeals.net. Any time I want to buy something I search the forums for sale info and coupon codes. Also check out www.fatwallet.com.

It means someone thinks that the S&P 500 should be at 900. And since the current value is 853, they think it is undervalued. But as previous posters have mentioned, it is an opinion and you will get a different opinion from every analyst. And you may even get a different opinion from the same an...

Thanks for the quick reply. How do I calculate what the new yield is?

I have some TIPS that I bought a month ago that were at a YTM of 2.44% at the time. Now I see the yield has gone above 3.1% for TIPS on the secondary market so that got me wondering how to know when to switch out TIPS or if you ever should. The market value of the TIPS I bought has decreased so I wo...

B.S. in information and computer science from Georgia Tech (that explains my username). Have worked for 2 different software companies that have been bought out 2 times each. Best part is that I have worked with the same group of developers for 20 years in those 2 companies.

If you have TIPS in your portfolio and plan on holding them to maturity , when you are determining the percent allocated to fixed income do you use the current market value of your tips or the adjusted principal (using the inflation factor). For example, I bought some 2.375% 20 year TIPS a couple we...

I did like you said when buying an 05 V6 Accord by using the edmunds site to email dealers around atlanta. I added in the comments the options I wanted and the invoice price - rebates and kickbacks and asked what the closest they could match to it. I got emails back from some of them. Most I came no...

I live in Lawrenceville, Ga just outside of Atlanta and we have the same problem. We were traveling this weekend and I had to drive 30 minutes Friday night to find gas (and a line of cars). Of course, this morning when leaving there was gas 2 minutes from my house. Once we got about 20 miles of metr...

Get a big cardboard box. Cut out holes for head and arms. Cut out the bottom of the box so your wife can wear it. Paint it like an oven. Make an oven door on the front. Have people open the door and have a bun in it or paint a bun on a shirt she will wear. She does have a bun in the oven. Congratula...

If you feel the 401K is not good, you should tell your HR dept (or whoever is in charge o fit). Unless they know the employees are not satisfied, they will keep renewing it each year.

Might also want to investigate if the 401K allows you to invest in your own choices.

Just discovered this board a week ago and have been reading a lot. Have been an asset allocation/index investor for a long time and wanted to get an opinion here on something.
