This week I will be hosting the Fabulous Festival @ LAL Musings and Festival of Frugality here at LivingAlmostLarge.  I also hosted the 180th Carnival of Personal Finance for the first time!  But this week I participated in a bunch of Carnivals and some reads for the week.

• 20th Rich Life Carnival
• 11-25-08 Investing Carnival
• 11-22-08 Carnival of Financial Planning
• 3rd Carnival of Consumer Credit
• 12th Carnival of Bankruptcy and Debt
• 5th Book Review Carnival

These are some posts I thought cool.

• Debt Prison asks “Should you cosign for a friend or family?”  I say no, but maybe there are times…
• Jim from Blueprint says “Dave Ramsey is Brilliant“.  He says at least DR examines human psyche.
• SharkAdvisor talks about “How your savings advice caused the financial crisis.”  Very cool, but maybe we just reset what our true spending should be.
• Money Blog talks about “Saving money by reducing household expenses.”  I should cut cable but I’m not quite there yet.
• Politics and Finances asks “Can you believe you are in a recession?” Yes it’s felt like that since last year.

So that wraps up a busy week. I hope you enjoy checking out the carnivals and posts.
