In preparing to write my posts, I often come across noteworthy and sometimes bizarre financial and business news. Below are links to some of these sites. Enjoy!
Thanks to Online Investing AI for linking to What’s Your Financial Mindset in the Weekly Wisdom: Personal Economic Recovery. Recently, I also participated in the Carnival of Financial Planning – Edition #135 and #136 (hosted at the Skilled Investor and Bargaineer). The featured posts were: What’s Your Financial Mindset, Thoughts On Escaping the Rat Race and Is Bigger Better? Scaling Down The American Dream. Thanks for including my posts in your carnivals. Please check out other posts on these sites.
