At the start of the year, the “experts” made a lot of predictions about the U.S. economy and what to expect in 2009.
- Some said housing would rise
- Some said housing would fall
- Some said mortgage rates would rise
- Some said mortgage rates would fall
And nobody predicted just how big the government’s stimulus package would be.
Now, on June 30, with the year officially half-over, it’s as good a time as any to remember that people are much better at interpreting the past than predicting the future. Economists can make educated guesses about the future, but they’re guesses nonetheless.
It’s like watching the Weather Channel. A meterologist can look at the data and say it’s going to rain next week, but the forecast is never 100%.
So far this year, mortgage rates have been up and down, credit availability has been higher and lower, and home prices have varied immensely from neighborhood to neighborhood.
There’s another 6 months until 2010 and there’s no reason to expect the current volatility and uncertainty to change.
The world is unpredictable and so is the U.S. economy. Therefore, consider making your personal finance decisions based on the information at hand today instead of on an educated guess about the future.
After all, the weatherman’s been wrong before.

In between visits from the exterminator, it’s not uncommon to see the occasional ant, spider or roach or insect around the house.
But what to do about it?
One solution is Terminix SafeShield, a new, eco-friendly home pest control product introduced earlier this year.
Formulated by an independent pesticide company, Terminix SafeShield is a non-aerosol bug spray whose active ingredients are all-natural. The formula is said to control 25 types of in-home pests and kills bugs fast.
Because of its natural composition, SafeShield is safe for use around kids and pets — a huge advantage over chemical-laden, off-the-shelf products. However, this same composition is also the product’s weak spot. Its oils and ingredients are most effective as spot treatments — not long-lasting ones.
Although it’s meant to complement a professional Terminix treatment, SafeShield can be purchased by-the-bottle at the Terminix website.

The Federal Open Market Committee voted to leave the Fed Funds Rate unchanged today within its target range of 0.000-0.250 percent.
The Fed also reiterated its plan to support the mortgage market to the tune of $1.5 trillion.
In its press release, the FOMC noted that the U.S. economy is not slowing with the same speed versus just two months ago and that financial markets, in general, are improving.
These are two signs that the country may be emerging from recession, if it hasn’t already.
The news isn’t all good, however. The Fed made a point to highlight the potential hazards the nations faces on its path to economic recovery:
- The prices of energy and commodities have been rising
- Job losses are still mounting nationally
- Businesses are reducing capital expenditures
Also in its statement, the Fed acknowledged a plan to hold the Fed Funds Rate near zero percent “for an extended period” and a re-commitment to the U.S. Treasury and Mortgage Bond markets.
Market reaction to the Fed’s press release has been muted.
With no new stimulus and no new “tools” to spur the economy unveiled, Wall Street is business as usual. Mortgage rates are unchanged post-FOMC today.
The FOMC’s next scheduled meeting is August 11-12, 2009.

Water high in mineral content — specifically calcium and magnesium — is more commonly known as “hard water“.
There’s no negative link between hard water and human health, but hard water has been known to mess with a homeowner’s penchant for cleanliness. Over time, mineral deposits can collect and “stain” anywhere that there’s running water.
In the home, hard water stains are most commonly found in bathrooms.
In this 2-minute video from Rachel Yatuzis, we see the Hard Water Stain Remedy in action. It doesn’t take much time, or even much effort. Removing the stains can be as simple as mixing lemon juice, vinegar, and baking soda.

Nestled in the Beautiful North Georgia Mountains on a privately owned farm for over 50 years to the same family lies Noontootla Creek Farms. NCF is a privately held farm consisting of over 1,500 acres. Originally a large farm operation and then a private hunting club, NCF is now open to the public with over two miles of quality trout water and excellent quail hunting . We are open year around with the best hunting and fishing taking place from the Fall through Spring of the following year. An on-site farmhouse is available for rental. All fly fishing and quail hunts are by daily reservation at affordable rates.
NCF’s fly fishing is more technical in nature than many other private trophy trout waters in North Georgia. This is a high quality trout fishery that is enjoyed by all for both it’s beauty and the way it fishes. Fly fishing at Noontootla Creek Farms is a small stream fly fishing experience unique to the North Georgia Mountains. Noontootla Creek normally runs gin clear and takes anywhere from 1/2 day to 1 1/2 days to clear after a rain event. This can be a fly fishing trip life saver if other waters in the state are “blown-out”! There are two miles of wadeable water consisting of four separate sections, about a half mile each, which have both trophy and stream-bred Browns and Rainbows. We’re talking classic North Georgia trout water on beautiful Noontootla Creek. It doesn’t get much better than this. NCF water is easily wadeable by anyone. The upper section is a little “tighter” requiring careful casting. The middle two and lowest sections are more open from a casting perspective. Hatches are limited in the Fall & Winter but Spring brings out the stonefly, caddis, mayfly and midge hatches. Summer brings out the terrestrials. You won’t get bored on this water as it can, at times, be challenging. But the rewards are big as well.
