Motor Club of America - FREE Roadside Assistance

I learned how to drive in 2003. It wasn't something I wanted to do. My husband said he was tired of "carting" me around.

While I am able to pump gas; I know absolutely nothing about changing tires, jumping batteries,etc.

The car begin to shut on and off. Neither one of us knew what was going on.

Can you imagine being stranding 40-60 miles away from home. Towing is expensive.

One of the best decision my husband and I made was signing up for Motor Club of America.

Motor Club of America is similar to AAA but on steroids!

MCA provides comprehensive auto services like roadside assistance which includes: unlimited towing up 100 miles, fuel delivery (just in case you run out of gas), key lock out (ok, tell me you've never locked your keys in the car), battery jump and tire change. You don't have to pay anything out of pocket for these services and more when you are a member of MCA.

More benefits:


$60,000 in Accidental Death Benefits
$500 - Emergency Room Benefit (MCA will send you a check of up to $500 for your ER visit)
$52,000 - Hospitalization Benefits. (MCA will pay you $150 per day for up to one year if you are hospitalized for any reason)
$25,000 in bail bond and arrest coverage
$5,000 Stolen Vehicle Award
$3,000 in legal assistance coverage
Discount Prescription, dental and vision benefits
Travel discounts (hotel stay & Car rentals)
$500 in travel assistance reimbursement if your car is involved in and accident and you are more than 50 miles away from home
Credit card protections (against fraud,
identity theft, etc.)

I haven't even skimmed the surface of what the membership provides....it is absolutely awesome.

MCA also gives you the opportunity to earn up to $90 on every person you refer to signs up for a membership. I can tell you those commissions add up quickly. We are paid every Friday by either check or direct deposit.

My husband and I agreed that this was the best service for us because he didn't want to think about if I got stuck somewhere and he could not get to me. He said he was glad to know that for a small monthly fee he can have peace of mind know that me (and the car) will be ok.

I Hate The Blue Screen Computer Message

On Saturday I did something that I know was wrong and a bit stupid.

My husband always tells me to turn off the computer first before I start unplugging things and I unplugged the computer while it was still on. WRONG THING TO DO!

I tried turning the computer back on twice and all I got was a blue screen. The third time I got a black screen with a disk error message.

All of my videos, files and software where on that computer and for a brief moment I was in shock until I remembered that I backed up all of my documents, files, videos and folders on an online service call
MyPC Backup.

I was alarmed to find out on 6% of computer users back up their computer files. I am telling you that it a disaster waiting to happen.

If you've never had your computer or laptop stolen; if you've never experienced a virus or your hard drive crashing; then you have no idea how it feels to lose everything....pictures, videos, music, websites, important documents. It is enough to make you want to cry.

I've heard people say well I back up my information on an external hard drive; as if those don't go bad too. Think....it is a device. All devices fail.

MyPC Backup gives me the ability to back up my computer on a government grade secure online server that I can access anywhere.

This is not a sales pitch for MyPC Backup. This is one of those services where you don't need it until you need it.

I've had it for 3 months and I love it. It is inexpensive and gives me peace of mind.

I don't know how important you information is to your on your computer.
