#030 — Links O’ The Week
Carnival of Personal Finance
Hey everyone, I wanted to let you know that a recent post of mine, Beyond the Resume: How Your Digital Impring Affects Employment, was featured in the 196th Carnival of Personal Finance: Music Edition. There are many wonderful articles included, so take a look.
Thanks to Green Panda Treehouse for the inclusion!
Links O’ The Week
I’ve been trying to catch up on my blog reading. To avoid falling too far behind and posting a ton of suggested reading all at once, here’s a few that caught my eye. I’ll pass along a few more mid-week and during our normal “Links O’ The Week” segment:
Pets
Green Panda Treehouse talks Ways to Save on Pet Care.
On AIG Executive Bonuses
Suburban Dollar gives his reasons Why He Thinks AIG Should Get to Keep Their Bonuses. Very gutsy article!
Conversely, The Coin Jar gives take on Scaring Wall Street Straight. My question is, who is going to scare Obama & Congress straight? I think they need to add more personal finance blogs to their Google readers!
Bailouts & Financial Crisis
Four Pillars gives us The Curse of Pretend Money, a guest post by Rob Bennett of A Rich Life, explaining how financial crises happen.
Art of the Coupon talks Personal Bankruptcies and the Recession. Good call to think outside the box on how to stimulate the economy. While you’re contemplating, check out the two-part MyMoneyMinute Economic Stimulus Plan.
Spending & Frugality
Not the Jet Set asks What Area of Your Life is Super Sized? Excellent question! You can be doing so well in so many areas of your budget, then blow it by super-sizing one or two areas.
Get Rich Slowly posts along similar lines, with his entry: What Do You Do When Frugality Gets You Nowhere?
Emergency Funds
No Credit Needed discusses Debt Reduction And The Emergency Fund. Just how big of an emergency fund should you have?
Giving
The Simple Dollar has a great idea to use The Giving Pocket. What a great idea!
Home Computer
Frugal Dad gives us Free Software To Soup Up The Home Computer.
More to come this week — have a great weekend!
