I am about to drop $25K on an engagement ring. What’s the best way to recoup some of that money? Is there a credit card that gives 5% cash back on jewelry, for example? Is there a smart way to get insurance included? For that kind of large expense, what do the finance savvy smart people out there do?

The “Rule of 72” suggests that an amount will double in 12 years at a 6 percent compound annual rate or double in 6 years at a 12 percent annual rate. Is this a useful rule, and is it an accurate one?

I’m set on getting a new Apple Macbook. I’ve heard that financing through Apple or Barclay as it’s called, is horrible. Someone suggested I purchase through Best Buy and finance through them as well. Does anyone have any other suggestions on financing a Macbook or anything to add to Apple and Best Buy financing ?

I want to buy a used car. Is it better to try to secure financing from a bank before going to any dealerships? Or, are the dealerships more willing to haggle if I finance thru them?

I am a college student majoring in economics. I also want to get a master’s degree in financial economics or financial engineering. My question is , to those who work in finance or those who might know, what are my options after i graduate with a masters of finance degree….ive heard about investment banking and i know its very multifacted but is that the only option.i also realize an investment banker has to work a ridiculous amount of hours per week. also, are there any jobs in finance with reasonable hours.
