WOW. 104. I should only hope to live that long. But eh, maybe not.
The 104th Carnival of Personal Finance is available at Getting Green. Matt is a pretty snappy guy and he’s doing it minimalist style. It’s nearly Zen with the soft green/grey theme. I can almost hear the trickling water and the lotus flowers floating by.
Yours truly has participated with a post about Investment Clubs.
The ones that really caught my eye:
NCN on drip drip dripping your way out of debt. I really needed to hear this message this week. NCN has got it going on! I like being a part of the NCN Network because of cheerleading, motivating posts like this one.
The Sun’s Financial Diary on picking stocks like a guru. Thank god he put this together. I never would have known whose work created which style of investing without this post. The stock picking tool is kind of interesting too. Click through to get to the link for the tool.
Madame X at My Open Wallet describes her thoughts on expenses and retools her savings plan. I am looking at her spreadsheet and I think I’m a little confused. But I am going to try and figure this out and post results. Maybe this is the thing that I’ve been missing all along.
Enough Wealth advice for a newbie investor. uh. I have no idea what a superannuation fund is, but he’s an Aussie, so whaddyaknow? I think it’s a retirement account. For the most part, it’s sound advice despite the funny accent! (just kidding!)
Plonkee, which is one of the most original monikers I’ve heard. She’s the resident Brit in the PFBlog community and here she’s talking about ISA’s in Britain, which like superannuation funds, appear to be retirement accounts. But like an American IRA, come in different flavors, which are unlike the American Traditional or Roth flavors.
Make Your Nut, with a very funny or very sad story about explaining the modern world to a co-worker. Reminds me of the time that our intern was agog over automatic doors at the supermarket. That wasn’t funny though. Just really sad.
Trent at The Simple Dollar with very good advice about life insurance, from an actual actuary.
Penny Nickel at Money & Values on sweatshop free clothing.
Share and enjoy!

Glad you liked my post. ISAs are a bit like Roth IRAs but you can withdraw them at any time without penalty. (You don’t have to wait until you retire).
Thanks for the mention, Mapgirl! I am glad that you find the information useful
