AAA Gas Prices

Hi All,

With all the ups and downs of the price of gasoline recently, I thought it would be interesting to post about gas prices...click here for a chart of gas prices for the last 5 years.  Info is from Zfacts.com.

More to the point is the current price of gas...click here for a map of gas prices across the United States. 

Note that on the left side of the page is a big red circle that says, 'Today's AAA National Average $2.251 - prices updated as of 10/14/16 3:38am ET'.  Wow - talk about timely information.

Note also that on the map you can hover over a particular state and you'll get the average price of gas for that state. Interesting.  But wait, there's more.  The map is color coded where the redder the state, the more expensive the gas.  The bluer the state, the less expensive the gas. 

Also on the page is a Gas Cost Calculator, News, Top Trends and a search box.

The Top Trends option needs a bit of explaining. Users can filter average price of gasoline by  the current day average, yesterday's average, a week ago average or a year ago average.  Users can further filter the information by region (option is either state or metro).

Finally users can filter by most expensive, least expensive, biggest change or smallest change of the price of gasoline.

Enjoy the site.

Top Ten Richest...

 Hi All,

Just came across this very interesting - in a superficial, voyeuristic way - website called 'The Richest People'.

You know the drill - click on the link above and you'll go to the site. Basically the site has many different lists of 'the richest' people in various fields of endeavor.  For example, there are lists for 'The Top Ten Highest Paid NBA Players', 'The Most Expensive Motor Home in the World',  'Links to Celebrity Net Worth' 'Richest Authors (we are a library!)' and much, much more.

Lots of fun to peruse, easy to peruse and easy to read (simple interface and not too much happening on each page) make this a fun, bubbly-gummy type website. And it'll fill your inner financial voyeur. :)

Enjoy the site!
