It’s my turn this week to host the Yakezie Carnival. I’ve mentioned the Yakezie group on several occasions and joined the group back in March of this year. It’s a wonderful group of bloggers who have formed a partnership together and I’ve made many new blogging friends through this group.
A few bloggers submitted posts for this carnival. For the majority of blogs I visited their site and highlighted an article from last week. There were a wide range of topics covered and nearly every aspect of personal finance was discussed from frugal living to retirement planning. I hope you take a few moments and check out some of the blogs. Enjoy the carnival!
