加拿大的朋友注意了, 如果你想买车，请看看以下这篇文章。此文七月一日发表在BCbusinessonline.com上。我很吃惊，到美国买车，再运回加拿大，居然能省这么多钱。

Joan started looking for a new vehicle last August and quickly decided she wanted a 2007 Subaru Outback. Frustration set in when, after weeks of searching, none of the Lower Mainland dealers could get her the car.

Jubilation soon replaced disappointment when Joan discovered that she could buy the exact model she wanted in Seattle, have all the export-import paperwork and fees taken care of through a broker and drive it back to Canada. Not only that, but she says the car cost her $8,000 less than if she had bought it in Canada.

买房时首要之选是Location，美国人常说 Location, Location, and Location.

Location 很大的成分是学区。

我的两个华人朋友 A和B 在同一年(2000)，同一城市买了户型相似，价格相近的房子，
唯一区别是邮编不同。从00-05年，两家房价每年平均涨$5,000，但从06年起，A 的房价扶摇直上，
每年涨近两万; 而B的房子每年只涨6000左右。缘何相差如此之巨？

其实原因很简单。两年前，A所在的社区的小学评上蓝带，更重要的是其高中被并入另
一学区。真是运气好到天上去了，那可是整个大都会最好的公立学校之一。大家挤着想进。
所以，最近只要一有房子上市，马上就有好多人来抢，很一般的房子也有四五个 Offers。

A说，真没想到会这样。当时如果有点投资意识，买下邻居的房子的话，两年就能
赚好几万。

话是不错,问题是当时你会买吗？

很多人都知道关于72的规律。72是一个挺神奇的数字，它告诉你多少年你能将你的投
资翻倍。比如说你的401K里有$60,000，如果平均年收益是8%的话，用72/8=9，也就
是九年后你的401K里将有$120,000。

那么要多久才能Triple? 你可以用114或115， 114/8=14.25 年。

如果你想知道多久才能翻番(4 倍)，那不妨试试144， 144/8=18 年。

好像是长了点。所以要不断的追加投资，才能早日退休。

由于eBay Search是采用100% match 的方法, 很多时候，卖家在输入商品名字时会打错，也就是所谓的Typos. 这些商品用正常的搜索，你很难找到。这就意味着Typos Listings 的竞争相对小一些，所以你有更多机会拍到便宜的商品。

如何使用:
输入你要找的商品的正确的名字， 如 Digital Camera, 这个搜索工具将搜索 Typos
如bamera,csmera,canera,camrra,cameta,camers,damera,czmera,cajera,camdra,
camefa,camerz,vamera,cbmera,camora,cameya,camerb,xamera,cemera,camwra,
camere,camara,amera,cmera,caera,camra,camea,camer,ccamera,caamera,
cammera,cameera,camerra,cameraa,acmera,cmaera,caemra,camrea,camear 等等
