With the way the economy is headed, it is important to keep financial planning in the forefront of your mind. Many people only consider putting their finances in order when they are going through a big change, such as buying a house or purchasing a car. However, between credit cards (tarjetas de credito) and bank accounts, it is important to keep your finances in order to assure your credit score does not suffer.
With opening a credit card account, it is important to consider the interest rates available. The interest rate for most credit card companies usually depends on an individuals credit score. It is also important to consider whether it is a free credit card (tarjeta de credito gratis) or not, because annual payments can really have an impact on your finances
As far as open bank accounts (abrir cuentas bancaria), it is important to always balance your checkbook and not spend above your means. With credit and debit cards, it can be easy to do this. However, if you have a budget and stick to it every month, it should be easy to keep your finances in order. In addition to a budget, it is also important to balance a checkbook so that you know how much money you have to pay your bills.

If a U.S. soldier wants to receive calls from his wife as often as he wants, he can buy them an online calling card. Using prepaid international calling cards, any family member can call to Afghanistan for as low as $0.055/min rate. It means that to talk 20 minutes with his family every evening, he’ll only pay $33 per month (that’s 16 times less, than when using an US land line).
One can by lots of cheap calling cards – there are “heavy” callers who spend circa $800 a month buying online calling cards, which is 10,320 minutes calling to a land line which sounds convincing.
Other carriers in mind you’re used to? To call to a land line in Iraq would cost $9391.20 with Verizon. Savings up to $8591 per month, $103,092 savings a year - just recharge your calling card online via ComFi.com.
Or you can activate the autorefill service - each time you run low on a balance, the card is automatically refreshed and no need to have access to the Internet. Calling to a cell phone to the city of Basra via Skype telephony? Losing up to $1342 per month in comparison to the low rates of calling card Afghanistan, not to mention the quality, which is equal at the least.
