Unclaimed Money ?
New Mexico Unclaimed Money Approaches $100 Million By Russ D Johnson. Not many people know it, but New Mexico is home to quite a few American icons. In 1950, the little cub that was to become the National Fire Safety symbol, Smokey the Bear, was found trapped in a tree when his home in Lincoln National Forest was destroyed by fire.

The New Mexican city of Cimarron, once known as the "Cowboy capital of the world", was home to Kit Carson and "Buffalo Bill" Cody. And just as the Carlsbad Caverns (whose largest chamber is more than 10 football fields long and about 22 stories high) houses tens of thousands of American bats, the State's Taxation and Revenue Department is home to almost one hundred million dollars in New Mexico unclaimed money.

According to a recent press release by the New Mexico's Division of Taxation and Revenue, $98,038,643.58 in New Mexico unclaimed money is in the government's hands and the money is just waiting to be claimed by owners who have lost track of their financial assets over the years.

The Amazing Yucca Flowers - State Flower of New Mexico By Kathleen Karlsen. The yucca plant is one of forty different species that inhabit the southwestern United States and Mexico. Some non-desert species also live in the southeastern United States and in the Carribean Islands. A specific moth pollinates yuccas. In the absence of this moth, yucca plants must be hand pollinated to survive.

Yuccas are in the lily family as indicated by their cream-colored, bell-shaped flowers. Yuccas are actually trunkless shrubs also related to the cassava or tapioca family. Yucca leaves contain strong fibers that can be used to make ropes. Yucca roots contain a natural red dye used for baskets.

Cacti are distinctive and unusual plants, adapted to extremely arid and hot climates, with a wide range of features which conserve water. Their stems have expanded into green succulent structures containing the chlorophyll necessary for life and growth, while the leaves have become the spines for which cacti are so well known.

Saving Money ?
Just Saving Money Will Keep You Broke by Tracy Piercy. The tax rebate checks under the Bush administration's economic stimulus plan won't do any good if people simply put them in the bank.

Last week, an online article in the Wall Street Journal claimed that we need to save more money - even if the interest on the savings won't keep up with inflation. This same article also restated the obvious: “we live in a culture fueled by spending and credit.”

This is double talk and misses the whole point of why America is headed for recession. Wealth is created with credit. The government knows it, the banks know it, corporations know it and the wealthy know it. With credit, there is access to money to spend which increases corporate earnings, which increases tax revenue, both of which provide jobs and, therefore more income for workers to spend which continues this profit cycle.

Selling When Half The Town's For Sale by Christian Jacobsen. While it certainly isn't the best time to sell, some of you have to. Whether it's because you're relocating, payments are forcing you to downscale, or perhaps you're among the lucky few who are even buying up, it is still possible to sell in a market with as many as a million more homes for sale internationally than is average. Here's a few ideas for sellers trying to attract a buyer in this flooded housing market.

First off, prepare your home so that it looks great. When there are 20 of the same type of home in similar neighborhoods, you need to make yours stand out. Read up on home staging tips, look around at what else is for sale, and then get your house into shape. This will mean doing extensive cleaning, clearing out some cluttering possessions, and probably making a few minor repairs. Consider getting some of the common inspections buyers like to do done before you even put the house up for sale. Then you'll know what your home needs, if anything, and can do the work so a buyer doesn't have to.
