Forbes.com has put together an intriguing collection of articles about work-life balance. Included in this section are titles including Use Technology to Spend Less Time Working, Why Women Who Opted Out Are Opting Back In and How A Flexible Work Schedule Can Help You Strike The Balance.

Great Savings with Student Discount Card

I normally don't use my blog to write about discounts, but with back-to-school time just around the corner, I thought you'd appreciate knowing about this resource. I recently purchased a student discount card for my daughter Juliana and it paid for itself the first time she bought a train ticket on Amtrak.  If your child is in high school or college, you can save up to 50% on travel, entertainment, clothing and more (great value for parents visiting colleges, planning vacations or trying to outfit a college freshman). The card is only $22.50/year and if you get the card today,you'll receive an additional $10 cash back on your first purchase with a national partner. Click here for more details.
