Over the course of time, some of you may want to contact me. That would be great – please do!
You can reach me at fmfblog [at] gmail [dot] com (replace the [at] with "@" and [dot] with ".").
For those of you unfamiliar with listing emails this way, it's designed to help stop spambots from "harvesting" my email.
For those of you contacting me about ads, affiliate offers, content suggestions and the like, if you send me a note and I do not respond, that means I'm not interested. There's no need to re-send or keep badgering me. I will not respond and am not interested. Sorry to be so harsh, but as you might imagine I get quite a few emails like these. I respond to very few because I am simply not interested.
A recently laid off friend just "invested" $1,500 with a multi-level marketing (MLM) company, having succumbed to the promises of a "six-figure income in two to three years . . . if you do it right." Of course, there is a plethora of "training materials" to purchase and seminars to attend if you aren't earning those figures as well as a requirement of $100/month in products to purchase. He said this MLM "is different because you only have to link to two people so it's a column, not a pyramid."
Why are people still getting suckered by these pyramid schemes? Can someone write the definite post on these scams?

Hi FMF,
Love your site and very good insights and interesting information everyday. As I live in America less than 10 years, I still have a lot to learn not only about how to manage money but also how to make the best within the America's system. But I'm also thinking to move back to my home country in a few years, not sure how this will impact my strategies in investing and retirement? Can I still get the money from Social Security and Medicare? Something like that. Would you discuss some of these topics in your site?

Dear sir,
I recently submitted a comment to your "Buy Term and Invest the Difference" article that I would like to remove. It is interfering with an article I have written for "HubPages" because I reused some of my comments, and they have a strict original content policy. Please advise me as to the best way to go about this.
Thank you.

Robb --
I removed it this time.
I hate to remove valid comments, so please be mindful of what you post in the future.

I do not live near a Costco. But, I have been to their website and I am considering a membership just to be able to purchase online. Thoughts- is this a probable good deal or a waste of time? I am comfortable buying online.
Thank you.

It all depends on whether or not you think you'll save the membership fee by doing so...

QUESTION? Asking for a little help.
Where do you put your savings so that it is SAFE, NO RISK, but that it is growing consistently 4 to 5%, that is still liquid so you can use it if you need it. Preferably the growth should be tax free. Please help me out on this friends or who ever.
