MyHeroDirect It isn't a site that you earn something on. Dave Ramsey is a Financial Advisor that guides people to get them out of debt. There are no Get Rich Quicks that work, this is real work and a life change. A change that is so worth it.

MyHeroDirect They actually suggest Money Market accounts even now. Some interest is better than no interest at all.

MyHeroDirect There is a great service called Emealz that will give you a menu each week based on the store that you shop in and how much it should cost. I made a great recipe, Ham and Grits Casserole for lunch today. Let me know if you want the recipe.

MyHeroDirect When I first came onto MyLot I was shocked because I was responding to a discussion from a Marine Corps wife and since my store has to do with the military, one of my ads was the one that was on the link to respond. It was kind of surreal. :)
