Carnival of Personal Finance #116 - Post-Labor Day Edition
September 5, 2007 by Jason Dean
The 116th Carnival of Personal Finance was a day late due to Labor Day — and now I’m a day late posting the recap. Here are the editor’s picks:
- Simplify Your Finances (from Gather Little by Little)
- Making Sure We Both Know Where Our Money Is (from FBB, The Family Finance Blog)
- The Keys to Getting the Best Reward Credit Card For You (from Free Money Finance, a perennial favorite)
The carnival editor divided articles up into the following sections: Frugality and Spending, Career, Credit, Investing, Money Management, Finance, Real Estate, and “Submissions That Defy Category.”
My favorites from each category:
- Frugality and Spending: Your Choice: Frugal Friends or Big Spender Buddies (from Punny Money)
- Career: One of the Best Things I Ever Did: Quitting My Job (from The Financial Blogger)
- Credit: Poor Credit Cards Can Make a Bad Impression (from Ask Mr. Credit Card)
- Investing: Market Timing Example (from Four Pillars)
- Money Management: How to Manage Your Finances on a Mac (from Wereindebt)
- Finance: The Credit Card Arbitrage Game: Making Money from Balance Transfer (from The Sun’s Financial Diary)
- Real Estate: Buying vs. Renting: Is Homeownership Better For Your Money? (from How I Will Be Rich)
- “Submissions That Defy Category”: Top 100 Economics Blogs (from CurrencyTrading.net)
All in all, another great Carnival — I can’t wait until next week’s!
