Visit The Walt Disney Concert Hall:
Not in the least bit cartoonish, the Walt Disney Concert Hall is the crown jewel of the LA Music Center. If you are a lover of classical music, jazz or even pop music, you should try taking in a show at the concert hall.
Designed by Frank Gehry, the auditorium has wonderful acoustics and an open platform stage. The hall is the new home of the LA Philharmonic and the LA Master Chorale, but the program is surprisingly varied throughout the year. The complex also includes the 250-seat Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theatre, a gallery and a roof garden. Tickets will set you back anywhere from $25-$150.
Address
111 S Grand Avenue,
between W 2nd & W 3rd Streets

Financial Tip Of The Day
Save Your Spare Change (Even The Pennies)
Most people either discard their spare change, or save everything but the pennies. The people that save everything have the right idea. All of the money you discard of is actual currency and it adds up. Even though a penny is worth one cent, 100 of them equals a dollar which is always useful. If you never saved your change, try emptying your pockets of change every evening and saving that. By the end of the month, we are sure you will have a good amount of money that you can deposit.
