Convenient, Presharpened Pencils for Forms, Games Etc.

Its a review about this product

These fish were bought for games at my son and daughter-in-law's baby shower. It had a Dr. Seuss theme so the colors worked well. They were pre sharpened and had erasers to fix mistakes saving me the chore of having to sharpen 144 pencils. The cost allowed kept me from worrying about collecting them at the end of the shower, and everyone appreciated that they fit nicely in a purse. They went well with the Dr. Seuss book look alike notebooks that were included in the goodie bags too. Being multicolored added to the theme, and added a lot of color to the tables.The pencils were delivered as promised,

Reviews About H&R Block At Home 2012 Deluxe + State (CD-ROM)

Its a review about this product

I When you try to e-file your H&R Block At Home taxes for New York State, you get the following error:

We and the New York tax office are hard at work getting state e-filing ready for you. You’ll need a state update to e-file. Check for an update on or before [date]

where [date] is today or tomorrow. Every day H&R Block moves it back one day. There is apparently no customer support or vendor-supported forums. H&R Block gives no indication when it will be ready.

I wonder whether I made a mistake switching from TurboTax to save $10.

The product is very good but the packaging was bad

Its a review about this product

I like this product, it is very good, very tasty. It is a versatile product that can be served as is or combined with other foods.

However, I am very disappointed with the way it was shipped. Another item by the same manufacturer was shipped together with this one in one box with not enough packaging material to keep them from jostling about.

NINE of the twelve cans are dented (two of the 4 bean salad cans are dented).

The box had too much free room and one corner was open and had it needed to be shipped further, the contents would have fallen out.
As I said earlier, the product is good but order it by itself so a lazy packer doesn't just shove it into a box with other products with ONLY ONE strip of air pillow packaging material which was totally inadequate.

I still haven't decided if I will order it again. I had to discard one of the cans because both the top and bottom were dented so much a can opener could not be used.

Great Book - Achieveing Prosperity

Its a review about this product

Achieving Prosperity: A Realistic, Ethical Guide To Building Wealth (Paperback) This book is for any investor, new or seasoned. Concepts are simple, but sometimes forgotten by even the most disciplined investor.

There is no get rich quick scheme, but hard work and savings will get you there. The book outlines the impact of waiting to save for retirement, which many of us did or do. I focused on by off all my student loans after grad school, money that would have been better put towards my retirement or future. I paid off $50k in less than 4 years .... imagine what that would be worth today??

Ok, you get the point.

Part of a Two-Book Financial Strategy

The review about this product

Cashflow Quadrant (Paperback) If you are going to read only one book this year, do NOT read this one. Find the time to read two books, because you need to read this book first and then read Robert Allen's "Multiple Streams of Income." "The CASHFLOW Quadrant" is invaluable in helping the reader understand the four quadrants of income and determining where he or she is and wants to be. It challenges the assumptions of middle-class investing and wealth generation and requires you to think critically about your approach to income and wealth. This book outlines broadly what you can do to move to the two right quadrants (where wealth generation is leveraged and you can be paid more than once for a unit of labor) and challenges you to make the journey. . . Allen's book then provides a wealth of ideas about how to generate the streams of income that produce income in Kiyosaki's right-hand quadrants. These books are perfect complements: Kiyosaki's to challenge and inspire the reader to engage in high-leverage income-generation activities, and Allen's to identify and implement these activities.

The Complete Diver is a must read for the Diving Enthusiast

The review about this product

I found the book to be well written and well published. Not sure if the one reviewer got a bad copy, but the quality of the book was as expected. The text was easy to read and informative. I had no issue with the physical quality of the book.

As far as the material, I found it to be informative. I have been diving for over 20 years and thought I knew the history of Scuba but the 1st chapters had multiple entries that provided new information. The style of writing is not dry but very entertaining.

The rest of the book was just as educational. I would not necessarily recommend it to the new diver because the wealth of information could be overwhelming, but if you have a strong love of the sport, I would highly recommend it.
