Financial tips for college grads: Watch the credit cards, get health insurance

This article explains one more thing that graduating seniors need to learn before graduating. They will now have to buy their own health insurance if they do not have benefits with a new job. There are affordable plans for healthy young individuals. But they will likely need to get their own apart from their parents' plans that they have used for their childhoods.

I found a great prescription discount card at www.rxdrugcard.com. It costs only $4.50 a month to have the card. That’s something that a new college grad can afford.

Generic Viagra
Thanks for the great blog. I really enjoyed reading it Female Viagra for women works by increasing the blood flow into the genital area. The penis and the clitoris are analogous organs, so the Viagra women drug could do for the clitoris what no prescription Viagra can do for an erect penis. An erect clitoris is indeed required for a female orgasm, as it is for men. Thus, Viagra could possibly work for anorgasmic women. There have been some clinical trials done recently in order to determine the feasibility of people who eventually would buy female Viagra cream related products, but most of these tests have been performed with few patients so as to make any definite conclusion.
