Children don’t get cheaper when they age, but if you are helping them out financially it’s best to understand the tax implications

The Bank of Dad is now open for business. I thought my kids were expensive when they were toddlers. Now that they’re teens and pre-teens I realize that there’s no way my kids are getting less expensive as the years go by. So, I was quite excited to learn about a new app, called “Bank of Dad,” available for our iPad. It will allows me to track the total amount advanced to each kid – it’s sort of an IOU tracker. “Dad, you don’t want that app. It’s boring,” my oldest suggested yesterday. “Son, this app is sick,” I replied. “And it’s free!”

Entrepreneur learns the hard way not to outsource his company’s marketing responsibilities

When I was first honing my chops as a young entrepreneur, I heard a lot of advice – including the golden rule to outsource what I’m not good at. However, I was also told to never outsource marketing. At the time, I vowed that I’d never be ‘dumb’ enough to hand off the lifeblood of one of my companies to someone on the outside. Why would I outsource my marketing? I loved it! Over the next two years, my first company grew past $1-million in sales.

Canadians are snapping up low-priced homes in the United States, hoping to benefit from rental income while watching their investment grow

At a recent U.S. home-buying session at Allan Gardens in Toronto, hundreds of prospective buyers attended – so many they had to add chairs to accommodate the overflow. And though you might expect the crowd to be filled with soon-to-be retirees, there were a significant number of young people hoping to profit from bargain-basement properties south of the border.

When compared to its northern neighbour, the American maternity leave policy is embarrassingly sparse

Maternity and parental benefits provided for the birth or adoption of a baby varies wildly from country to country. The United States is part of a very exclusive group – but not for the reasons you might suspect. It shares the spotlight with Papua New Guinea, Swaziland, Liberia and Lesotho as one of the only countries in the world that doesn’t mandate some type of paid maternity leave for new mothers according to a study done by McGill University’s Institute for Health and Social Policy. In fact, when compared to its northern neighbour, the U.S. maternity leave policy is embarrassingly sparse.

Children don’t get cheaper when they age, but if you are helping them out financially it’s best to understand the tax implications

The Bank of Dad is now open for business. I thought my kids were expensive when they were toddlers. Now that they’re teens and pre-teens I realize that there’s no way my kids are getting less expensive as the years go by. So, I was quite excited to learn about a new app, called “Bank of Dad,” available for our iPad. It will allows me to track the total amount advanced to each kid – it’s sort of an IOU tracker. “Dad, you don’t want that app. It’s boring,” my oldest suggested yesterday. “Son, this app is sick,” I replied. “And it’s free!”
