Buying a Samsung Galaxy S10+ Smartphone off Ebay for £362 - Bargain or Scammed? / Personal_Finance / Money Saving
By: HGR
Whilst most are dashing to buy Samsung's flagship phone the S20+ that costs £999. However, before you rush out and buy it, you could be missing out on a great bargain, a S10+ at LESS than half the price! The S10+ currently sells NEW for between £650 and £800. Which is not that much cheaper than an S20+, so no wonder many opt for the S20+. However, what most fail to consider is that they could get as good as new (not refurbished) phones off ebay, in pristine condition for LESS than £400!

Financial Independence Has Nothing to Do with Being a Millionaire / Personal_Finance / Money Saving
By: Jared_Dillian
I am on Facebook, and there is a lot of crap on Facebook. Even the non-political crap is stuff I just do not believe in.
For example, people say that you should spend your money on experiences, not things. There is some spiritual component to this that I don’t get.
I like spending money on experiences (particularly travel), but I like spending money on things more. Clothes in particular.
You feel (and act) differently when you are wearing an expensive suit and an expensive pair of shoes. People who make $150,000 a year and still get all their clothes at Target do this not out of frugality, but low self-esteem.
It is good and right to spend money on yourself now and then.
The other crap you hear on Facebook, and pretty much everywhere else, is that money doesn’t make you happy.

I met my wife at gifted and talented camp in the summer of 1989, when I randomly put my head in her lap and asked for a kiss.Boy, did I get lucky.
I got lucky because we are both frugal and didn’t even know it. We didn’t fill out a questionnaire on money habits before we kissed each other.
Some people have the misfortune to be frugal and fall in love with a high roller.

How to Arrange an Inexpensive Holiday with Online Dating / Personal_Finance / Money Saving
By: Submissions
Andy Charlson writes: There are various misconceptions about dating sites which are bandied about. One of the most misleading is they only exist for people who have been unable to find a partner going through the more traditional routes. Another is they purely exist for meeting up for casual encounters. The truth of the matter is, relationship sites appeal to a diverse cross-section of people, single or otherwise. For many, the whole point of sites like https://www.beyondthecharter.com/ is not necessarily to flirt at all. It is more about engaging with a cross-section of interesting and exciting individuals in order to widen their social circle.

How Online Dating Can be a Terrific Way to Save Money / Personal_Finance / Money Saving
By: Submissions
Andy Charlson writes: Let's be honest. Relationships can be one of the most expensive social activities we indulge in. On a quest to find the ideal partner, we might go through any number of what could be termed ‘dummy runs' with people who ultimately turned out to be unsuitable candidates. Then there is the actual process of dating itself. No matter how attractive we are to a significant other, taking them out on a date night can leave a serious dent in any wallet. Unfortunately, the more you want to impress a new partner by taking them to the more exclusive restaurants or expensive nightclubs, the greater the cost. In these uncertain economic times, it does no harm to consider areas where you can draw those horns in. This is where Internet dating can be a fantastic resource for controlling your budget.

UK Used Car Christmas From Dealers Buying Discount Sales Bargains / Personal_Finance / Money Saving
By: Nadeem_Walayat
A google search soon reveals that the consensus view of the best times of year to buy a used car in the UK tend to coalesce around the two plate changes of the year, i.e. 1st of March and 1st September as being the most commonly propagated online advice to buy just before and after the plate changes. Next often repeated are the dealers end of quarter sales targets for bonuses and other perks, namely by the end of March, June, Sept and December. And also often mentioned are expectations that the best used car deals tend to be in the winter months due to less consumer demand.
