While this payment plan may work on the others, it won't work so well with your car payments. When you take a loan out for a car, they take the principle amount and plug it into their table which automatically calculates how much you would owe in total - including the interest - and then calculate your monthly payment from that. If you were to send in (half) your money two weeks early, the next bill you get will indicate that you owe less than what you usually owe. The same goes for if you were to send in $1100 on your car payment of $350 - for the next 3 months, they are going to send you a bill for $0.00 so you don't get ahead on your payments (aka, less interest for them). However, if you were to just send them half your monthly payment every two weeks regardless of what they bill you for - this method will save you money. Just a clarification- Preface: I am not going to say that this is a bad idea.

Comment on Super Tuesday, 4 Not-So-Super Candidates and How Healthcare Might Have been Saved by Steve http://www.theassociatedpest.com/2008/02/01/super-tuesday-4-not-so-super-candidates-and-how-healthcare-might-have-been-saved/#comment-110 Steve Mon, 04 Feb 2008 12:31:27 +0000 http://www.theassociatedpest.com/2008/02/01/super-tuesday-4-not-so-super-candidates-and-how-healthcare-might-have-been-saved/#comment-110 Definitely money that could be better spent elsewhere. This election is starting to turn weird. I didn't think the Republicans would be able to offer me anyone I even remotely liked, but then McCain got his campaign going. I do like that guy. Still, I just feel badly burned by that party-not sure they are ever going to get me back. I'm still kicking myself for voting for Bush in 2000 when I was like 12. At this point I'm backing Obama, and anyone BUT Romney. But if it comes down to a race beteeen Hil-dog and McCain, I honestly don't know what I'll do...

Comment on It’s Not a Small World After All by Jenn http://www.theassociatedpest.com/2007/12/07/its-not-a-small-world-after-all/#comment-104 Jenn Sat, 29 Dec 2007 15:50:53 +0000 http://www.theassociatedpest.com/2007/12/07/its-not-a-small-world-after-all/#comment-104 Your very correct in saying "forget skinny, aim for healthy." But ignorantly people associate healthy with "skinny" and completely miss the whole objective. I was actually reading in my Popular Science magazine a few months ago on how they were studying the composition of foods as simple as the strawberry and finding which ingredients stimulate the human sensory receptors the most. By doing this they can intensify simple foods to be so potent with flavor it is irresistible. The idea of it was quite intriguing because they explained the breakdown of their dissecting, but my gah, I think we love food enough as it is. They can use this concept for the good, or it will completely destroy us. I guess we'll find out, huh.
