Deductible. This refers to the amount of money you need to pay every year before your medical insurance plan pays the benefits. For instance, if your plan is for $3000 and your deductible is $500, you have to pay the latter amount first before your health plan will start to provide the benefits in your contract.

In today’s post sub prime crisis banking arena, getting accepted for personal loans without a good credit rating can be very challenging. In many cases banks are limiting fair credit applications to secured loans and are very tough in approving unsecured loans.
While a secured loan can be more difficult for the applicant since he may not always have the proper collateral to back up the loan he needs, it can often be a cheaper option than an unsecured loan. As a rule of thumb, the lower the bank’s risk the cheaper your loan will be. In fact, the difference in rate between an unsecured loan and a secured one can often be so significant that it pays to apply for debt consolidation and get rid of some older unsecured loans for cheaper options that may be available to you.

It wasn’t called The Great Depression for nothing. The years 1930 to 1932 saw the worst stock market crash with investors seeing almost 86% of their funds get blown off into thin air. The decline went on for a staggering 813 days and recovery wasn’t complete until about the 1950’s.
The second worst took place between 1937-1938 when rumors of war and the Wall Street scandals fueled the plunge to about 50%. The “Panic of 1907” is recorded as the third worst stock market crash in history with losses recorded at 48%. The U.S. Treasury had to intervene and buy $36 million worth of government bonds to arrest the steady decline for 665 days.
