I’m presenting my weekly roundup slightly differently this time, in terms of “stuff I learned this week”. Hope you like it!
Stuff I Read About This Week
- The Sun’s Financial Diary: Is there a winning sector anywhere in the stock market these days?
- Lazy Man And Money: Lazy Man thinks it’s the right time to buy stocks right now. I agree, but we’ll see just how stocks pan out in a few months.
- Money, Matter and More Musings: I’m not into car neon lights either but a few things on Golbguru’s “never-gonna-buy list” already reside in our home! The one thing I particularly need is the GPS unit as I’m seriously navigationally challenged.
- Money Smart Life: Here’s a good list of personal finance books for your library. They’ve made a difference for Ben.
- Gen X Finance: With the Dow puncturing through support levels, here is some more advice about sitting tight.
- Free Money Finance: Time to find out who’s really to blame for this mortgage mess.
- Mighty Bargain Hunter: Forget the wild stock market for a second; would you consider making money by opening an eBay store instead?
- Five Cent Nickel: It’s okay to spend some money. That’s what savings are for.
- Blueprint For Financial Prosperity: Credit and debt can be your best friends too.
- Punny Money: Some people actually spend more by using cash over credit cards. With bonus funky illustrations.
- Dough Roller: Get a load of the clues that will tell you that you are being scammed.
- The Simple Dollar: Take money out of the equation to find out who your true friends are.
- Money Smarts: The U.S. subprime credit crisis is a hot topic for the rest of the world too. What’s everyone else saying about it?
