The Great Ask Me Anything of 2008 Giveaway 1

A while back, Trent over a the Simple Dollar asked his readers to ask him anything.
you can ask any question you’d like in this thread - a specific personal finance question, a philosophical question, a personal development question, a pop culture question (maybe you have a video game related one you’d like to get off your chest), a cooking question, even a personal question about me. The only guidelines are to keep them family friendly and to avoid asking for personal information that, well, no sane person would provide. If you’ve ever had a simple question you want answered, now’s the time.
- Trent


Well, I am going to start the same project, or at least one similar. There will be a twist though. I am going to conduct a giveaway. I have been given three (3) books to giveaway, and so I will do just that give them away. Very simple to enter. Make a comment to this post. The winner will be chosen at random. However, your entry will be disqualified if (1) you have already entered previously in the current drawing cycle, and (2) if you fail to ask a question. The winner for the 1st drawing (to be held May 31st, 2008) will win a copy the workbook, "Living Financially Free," by James L. Paris. In addition, their question will be the first one I attempt to answer.

Can you stump me? What would you like to read about? What do you want to know? I’m listening!

The remaining questions, I will work on in subsequent posts. The other two winners will also have their question answered (or at least attempted) before the others.

  6. What are little ways to save money, when we're already doing all of the "introductory" ones - eating at home, taking lunch, carpooling, etc.?

  7. Please enter me in your great giveaway. I wonder if this question will stump you.

    My husband purchased property in NYC many years ago. If he were to sell the property, we would have enough money to buy a house outright.

    Why should we take a mortgage for our home if we could pay it outright? I mean once you take a mortgage, over the years you wind up paying for the home several times.

    Many people will tell us that we should invest the money. But why invest money in this type of market which is uncertain from day to day? We could have the house paid for in the clear and live with no worries. Can you help me with this one?
