CALCMOOLATOR...THE FINANCIAL CALCULATOR THAT SAVES YOU MONEY

Not all that strong in math? Looking to demystify the truth behind various financial arrangements, loans, offers, and situations? Check out this all-in-one financial calculator.

Financial health and stability depends upon making informed decisions about loans, debt, taxes, savings, and more. Unfortunately, most people (including first-time homebuyers!) lack a true understanding of how to apply math to help them clearly understand these essential areas.

While there are many specialized calculators out there for a particular area (say debt, or mortgage payments), there are few which consolidate all of the most popular financial calculators in one place. Not to mention, you can chalk up quite a bill paying $2 - $5 for each independent calculator you may need.

Recently I discovered CalcMoolator, a handy online collection of calculators which also has easy-to-use apps for both iOS and Android devices. The most popular calculators include:

•         Auto Lease vs. Buy
•         Auto Loan Estimate
•         First-Year Baby Costs
•         Estimate Your Credit Score
•         Pay Off My Credit Card Debt Sooner
•         My Lifetime Earnings
•         Salary to Hourly Wage
•         Rent vs. Buy
•         What If I Pay More?
•         Mortgage Payment Estimate

What's more, you can even embed web-based CalcMoolator calculators in your own website/blog. It's very handy for showing Rent vs. Buy and Mortgage Payment estimates.

We forget that the single most important structural element in our home is the roof. It provides shelter for those we love and the things we value.

With better weather days upon us, now is a good time to inspect the roof and make sure it’s up to the task of protecting your home’s value. Here are some crucial elements you’ll want to look for during a roof inspection: Are the gutters clean and in good shape? Organic debris building up in your gutters can cause water to pool and foster an environment for roof rot. Do you see any curling around the bottom edges? Are there any gaps or holes in the soffit?
