How To Deal With Bankruptcy, a Job Hunt and The Wild Stock Market

by Silicon Valley Blogger on October 8, 2008

I always enjoy going to Ginger’s site — the blog called “Girls Just Wanna Have Funds”. I find myself invigorated every time I pay her a visit, thanks to the vibrant colors of her site and the energy she puts forth in her posts. Well this time, Ginger brings us an awesome Carnival of Personal Finance, which I was happy to be part of. Our post on Best Places For Your Money When The Stock Market Tanks made it as an Editor’s Choice! Thank you to Ginger for presenting a great array of finance articles, some of which got my attention:

In the meantime, Dollar Frugal hosts a hefty Festival of Frugality, Benjamin Franklin Edition, which contain these informative and timely frugal posts:

Thanks folks! I was going to say — Ginger, some guys actually mentioned that about the pink? I actually think it’s a nice edgy fuschia that shows some attitude! Also, it goes very well with the “stiletto” reference on your title description! :D

Hey! Thanks for the link!

The interview went well. Back at the ranch, the predicted and feared meeting of the Big Hoodoos took place early this a.m. but so far has yielded no announcement of layoffs. That notwithstanding, if an offer comes in, this li’l rattus arizonicus probably will jump ship and swim away.

Great post. I especially like the “The Passive Dad: Free Creative Ideas to Help Friends Facing Foreclosure or Bankruptcy” article. It is refreshing to see someone put effort into finding ways to help other folks instead of the typical apathetic America that we have seen far too much of in the past 5 years. I also posted on Passive Dad’s website to add an additional source of help for families in trouble if you are interested.

@Funny About Money,

Very interesting language you put forth! Did you get the job? I hope you did!

@Joe,

Thanks for the tip on your comment regarding Passive Dad’s post. I shall check it out! I agree that it’s heartening to read about helpful information being shared (for a change) rather than having to come across the usual finger-pointing rants typically encountered when the economic meltdown is actively discussed.

Not to say that I don’t enjoy me some finger-pointing rants too! ;)
