| Google Map GPS Latitude/Longitude Locator
|
|
Do you have GPS? I have a GPS Garmin StreetPilot i3 for years. I loved it. But every once a while, a problem may come to me is, I could not find the
address on the GPS. I enter an address, it could not find it. Mostly, what I have to do is to connect my GPS to my computer, use EasyGPS
to create a waypoint and send it down to my i3. In order to create a waypoint, you have to know the latitude and longitude of the address. I used to have a very hard time to find out these two
values. But now, with this page, all you have to do is, right click the map, and the map will tell you right away.

| Mutual Fund Real-time Price Teller
|
|
As we all know, Price on mutual fund is different from stock. When you place your order, or redeem your shares, you don't know the price until the NAV is calculated after the major U.S. exchanges close.
Fund Teller will tell you the "real time" price for any fund based on its top 10 holdings real time quotes in stock market. Since it only calculates the top 10,
so, the bigger percent the top 10 holdings are in the total fund asset, the more accurate Fund Teller can tell. Of course it won't be 100% accurate since the fund manager may buy or sell in the same time,
and sometimes, it may be way off. But for most funds, it can give you a basic idea.

| Renting Vs. Buying
|
|
Another way to compare renting vs. buying.
The basic idea is that buying a home is not always better than renting. People always say, buying a home is an investment. You pay mortgage, eventually, your home is yours.
But renting, you pay rent, and you get nothing back. But, what if you invest the money that you may buy a home, and use the return to pay rent? Does it really work?
It really depends. This renting vs. buying gives you a way to compare.
