What is the best job for women?

thatsjvl @jvincent_129 (4994) • Philippines 21 Apr 13

In the older times, women were considered to be the one taking care of the children, and the husband takes care of the work and expenses. But now men and women are treated equal. Women are also working. There are some mentioned in...

Father claims they were Framed!

lelin1123 @lelin1123 (15595) • Puerto Rico 19 Apr 13

I can't believe that the father of these two bombers of the Boston Marathon is claiming that his sons are being framed. How after all the evidence could he really think this. I know he must be devastated, I can understand that;...

Savvynlady I am not surprised that he is because it is hard to imagine that your child or any relation could do something so sinister. From what I gather, the young men were going to great schools, were on the verge of having great careers whether here or back in their...

greenthumb018 @greenthumb018 (595) • Philippines 7 Mar 13

I tried oil pulling a couple of months ago and I noticed that my teeth are whiter. They say that it also prevents diseases. For those who do not know, oil pulling is done by rinsing the mouth with 1 tablespoon of oil for 15 to 20...

bounce58 @bounce58 (17385) • Canada 6 Sep 12

Savvynlady The difference between working or not; driving a car or not; having my own place or not; beholden to others or not; paying bills on time or not; pursuing my dreams or not. having a life that belongs to me or not.

Would you tell your partner/spouse if you won a million dollar lottery?

Dominique25 @Dominique25 (9464) • United States 27 Dec 12

I understand not telling everyone about it. But if I won a million dollars I would tell my husband. It would be scary to tell a lot of people because people will do crazy things for money. So I would only tell my husband until I...

Savvynlady I am not married, and the guy I go with, we don't see each other a lot due to us living on opposite sides of town and no transportation between us. So, he probably wouldn't know if I did win anything or not. I DO have an ex husband that I owe child support to,...

Savvynlady Well there is no law that says all wins should go to nice folks only. it would be nice but see it's gotta be a fair playing field across the board. To me, I believe that God gave this man the money to that he can do right for himself. If he's passing out money...

Savvynlady If you have a million after taxes and such, you put it in the bank, you get $2000 a month behind it which isn't bad. To say I'd stop working? well, that's a debatable question, if it was more than a million, perhaps ten, sure I'd shut it down. but of course,...
