Money Songs

Driving to work today I heard the song "Money Talks" by AC/DC. It got me to thinking how many songs are out there that are about money. Off the top of my head, I have thought of 6. I know if I actually sit down and think about it I would be able to come up with more but This is a good start. If you want, you can blog an entry about it in your own blog and leave the link in the comments section (please link to this entry within your blog) or if you don't have a blog, you can just list some more in the comment section. I will periodically update the list as more and more songs come in. Have fun!

What's in My Wallet?

I came across a post in Free Money Finance Blog about what is carried in wallets. Here is what I have in my wallet right at this moment in no particular order. Acutally it is more of a card holder/money clip less the money because I never carry my wallet and my money in the same pocket.

  1. PBA Card & badge
  2. American Express Platinum Costco Card - I earn Costco cash each year by paying cable, phone, internet, cellular, heating oil & other assorted bills.
  3. Bank Debit Card
  4. 2 bank id cards
  5. Nissan Roadside Assistance Card - for those time when my automobile acts up which is not very often thank goodness.
  6. Dave & Buster's Rechargeable Power Card - for those of you who aren't familiar with D&B, it is pretty much an adult acade/bar/restaurant - very fun place!
  7. Dental Insurance Card - Keeping the pearly whites white.
  8. Library Card
  9. Costco Membership Card
  10. Driver's License
  11. Health Insurance Card
  12. AAA Card - I travel about 60 miles one way for work each day!
  13. Waldbaum's Bonus Card - a supermarket discount card
  14. A Good Luck Dad Coin given to me by my 2 children about 3 or 4 years ago.

That's about it. Hope you enjoyed the list. Feel free to list the contents of your wallet and compare.

Money Bloggers & their Favorite Movies...

After reading a post at mdmproofing.com, I have decided to post my 5 favorite movies as well. Why I am doing this, I do not know. It just caught my attention...

Here they are in no particular order...

  1. Goodfellas..."As far back as I could remember, I always wanted to be a gangster.'
  2. Shawshank Redemption..."His first night in the joint, Andy Dufresne cost me two packs of cigarettes. He never made a sound."
  3. Rounders..."Listen, here's the thing. If you can't spot the sucker in the first half hour at the table, then you are the sucker."
  4. Caddy Shack..."Hey everybody, we're all gonna get laid!"
  5. Better Off Dead..."This is pure snow! It's everywhere! Have you any idea of what the street value of this mountain is?"
