This week I participated in multiple carnivals. I’d like to remind everyone about the turbotax giveaway and my book review for The Subprime Solution. Remember to leave a comment for a chance to win the book and subscribe for a chance to win turbotax.
- 93rd Carnival of Money Stories
- 160th Festival of Frugality
- 1-11-09 Carnival of Wealth, Money, Life
- Carnival of Personal Development – through the hizzay
- Carnival of Money Hacks #47
Weekly Roundup of posts I found interesting
- NoDebtPlan talks about the “Steak Dilemma“. I had to laugh because I feel the same about getting more bang for the buck.
- Art of the Coupon talks about her “Plan to pay $0 for groceries for the year.” Wow. That’s all I can say is wow.
- Ashley asks “Should you take money you didn’t earn?” In a way she earned it but I guess it’s a moral dilemma.
- Chris tells us about “The joy of owning nothing.” I kinda like owning stuff, but I try to be careful about what I buy.
- Nickel asks “is it the end of cash?” Maybe we’re becoming star trek.
- FMF gives us the heads up on “Millionaire’s tips to becoming rich“. I need to practice some of these tips.
Have a great weekend and come by again!

This is just a general comment, or “thinking out loud”…. but most people on financial blogs say that they have little debt/ pay balances every month/ say that most American’s don’t have cc debt/ average credit score >700, etc… yadda yadda yadda. However, with so many headlines such as “Bank of America posts fourth-quarter loss of $1.79 billion” and Citibank loses about the same and blames “caused largely by growing consumer loan losses”. There have to be quite a few people in this country defaulting on loans and cc’s to have that type of loss in one quarter. I have to wonder, is the average credit score dropping? The more people that lose their jobs, the more defaults will keep happening (hopefully they have an EF). Etc. Is anyone else wondering about this?

I think that only a small percentage of people blog or read financial blogs. Thus i can believe the average credit score is low.

One Thing about your header… You want to live large. Make your languaging much more definite and commanding. Don’t say ‘Trying” to live large… either you will or you wont. Try means you’re not really serious about it and you are only telling your subconscious that you don’t really want it. Say that something more definite like you are living larger every day. Something to tell your subconscious that you ARE serious about this.
Just some feedback for ya!
