Carnival of Personal Finance #85 - My Top Picks

29. January 2007, 19:38 UhrPersonal FinanceDana Joseph




The Carnival of Personal Finance #85 is up on Five Cent Nickel.  There were a lot of really good entries today.  Here are my top picks:

I consider myself a frugal person.  It is my hobby to see how much I can stretch a dollar.  I really enjoyed this post on frugal versus cheap, over at the Stubborn Capitalist.  I like the easy-to-read chart which compares the two words, and provides examples of each. 

That’s A Lot of Money by Blunt Money was a good read as well.  We’ve also run the Quicken reports for several years’ worth of information and been surprised by how much we’d spent on a given category.   

Our Personal Finance State Of The Union Address by MoneySmartLife.  It is a great idea to complete an overview of your financial situation, both in terms of where you are currently and what your financial goals are.  Looks they are doing well!

    I’m glad you enjoyed our “state of the union” for personal finances. It’s amazing how a new baby can really change the way you look at the world and how you manage your finances!
