Talk It Out
The Counting the Cost "Talk It Out" feature
is a chance for readers and website visitors to share ideas and insights from
personal experience. The concept is simple. When someone submits a question or
problem he/she is having trouble solving, we'll present that question to our
readers/visitors and ask that they write in with their advice or suggestions.
The best of the responses we receive will be featured in the following issue of
the e-zine.
Examples of Previous "Talk It Out" Questions:
"We are working on getting in a position for me to be able to stay
at home with our son and one of the biggest obstacles we are
encountering is medical insurance. We are currently covered through my
job at a great price. Options through my husband’s job are high priced
for not good coverage. I have checked Blue Cross/Blue Shield for family
coverage and their prices are okay, but I would like to look at some
others in comparison. Do you and your readers have any
suggestions?" ~ Lynn

"Regarding budgets - I
wish somebody would talk to those of us who have a mate
that absolutely will not stick to a budget… Budgets only work if people
allow them to. Some people just absolutely can't or won't stick with a
budget. I could use a little help in this area. I have no problem living
within a budget but my husband does… I've tried talking, pleading,
crying, suggesting and threatening and nothing has worked so far. Maybe
somebody else has a suggestion I can try…" ~ Victoria
