]]> Comment on HERALD INVESTIGATION: moneysaving sites slammed for endorsing payday loans as debt crisis spreads to young and middle class by Darren http://youngmoneyblog.co.uk/herald-investigation-moneysaving-sites-slammed-for-endorsing-payday-loans-as-debt-crisis-spreads-to-young-and-middle-class/#comment-619 Darren Wed, 14 Nov 2012 15:58:03 +0000 http://youngmoneyblog.co.uk/?p=473#comment-619 This article has made me wonder if I should review my Adsense units and chose not to accept any type of PayDay loan appearing on my site whatsoever. All day long these companies advertise on TV and take advantage of the naive and vulnerable. I think it is time for an audit of my own ads.

]]> Comment on Why telematics insurance WORKS by Andrew Dawson http://youngmoneyblog.co.uk/why-telematics-insurance-works/#comment-449 Andrew Dawson Mon, 15 Oct 2012 21:52:02 +0000 http://youngmoneyblog.co.uk/?p=433#comment-449 Congratulations; if your mission was to reduce your insurance premium. Are you a safer driver? Telematics monitor your Position, Speed, Cornering, Acceleration and Braking. Telematics do not, however, monitor the things that make you a safer driver i.e. Appropriate speed, Following distance, Space management, Hazard awareness, Road surface and Weather conditions. So you're driving the vehicle within the speed limit and more gently. Driving carefully is a noble pursuit but it is not to be confused with driving well.
