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!
Recently, I participated in the Carnival of Financial Planning #130 (hosted at the Smarter Wallet), the Carnival of Financial Planning #131 and #133 both hosted at The Skilled Investor . Lastly, I particiapated in the Carnival of Financial Planning #132 hosted at Good Financial Cents. The featured posts were: 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.
