Articles I liked this week
Normally I do this in chronological order as I find something new I add it to the bottom of the post, however, I was really compelled by Five Cent Nickel’s post about his mortgage being sold and how you should handle the transfer. It’s very good advice aimed at protecting your information and I recommend it to anyone who owns a financial instrument which can be sold to another institution. (Primarily, but I imagine not limited to mortgages.)
Jane Dough finds us an article about money market accounts and CD’s. Apparently, PF Bloggers are leading a trend.
Jeffrey reminds us to buy freedom, not things.
JD’s got the get out of debt pep talk that I need.
Kira on getting great financial advice from her family. It’s a really fantastic post that begs the question, what did you learn from your family? I learned not to pay retail if I can help it. Haggle. Save in my 401K plan. Pay an extra month’s payment towards my student loans every year.
Tricia hits a debt reduction milestone. Congratulations!
Laceshawl on the size of your income. I’ll have to try this out. Problem is sussing out what my friends make.
Ricemutt on negotiating. Pretty good reading. Combine it with Single Ma’s post on negotiating for a new car. Two perspectives on the subject. Compare. Contrast. Discuss.
