The Carnival of Personal Finance #37
Highlights I personally liked:
Group Life Insurance through work isn’t always cheapest
Understanding Arbitrage at Prosper.com
Retirement options for low incomes (the Carnival link seems broken, use mine instead)
Another Mind-Money Relationship Post, it’s a really good one too.
On Target Investment Funds, my link is actually to Part I of the series. This week is actually Part V.
SOX and its uselessness, I could have told you this. It’s the bane of my geek existence.
Value of your time, I would charge more than $15 an hour. In fact, I charge $35/hr for drop spindle and knitting lessons. Computer consulting is generally $50/hr with a 3 hour minimum, but that’s a different beast altogether. Use my link here too.

Hey Mapgirl, thanks for commenting about my post! I had no idea that consultants charge around $50 an hour! That’s really interesting to me, good info, thanks!
One of my friends charges $150/hr with a 3 hour minimum, but he’s the kind of guy who will set up your UNIX rack system with mail server, et al. I’m talking about crawling around a home PC and helping folks with the Internet and spreadsheets. I also help people organize their finances and do some light bookkeeping, for which I should charge more like $25/hr, but am such a pansy that I charge only $20. But I am actually pretty good at this last one so if there’s anyone out there in DC who needs some help, please contact me!
I can provide references!
Thanks for mentioning my story. Good luck from a fellow money nerd!
Hi Jon! Thanks for commenting! I look forward to reading more at your blog!
