These are a few posts I found interesting.

• Save a few bucks calculates if buying a hybrid car is worth it.  Funny, I did almost the same thing but he compared a Corolla.  Even at $5/gallon it takes 5 years to break even between the Prius and Corolla.
• Dividend Values asks “Will housing lead us out of the recession?”  While I agree that the housing market saw some good news, I don’t think we’ve hit bottom.  Nor do I think we’ve seen the worst, until people have finished losing their jobs.  I think more jobs cuts are coming in 2009.
• Bankling author Q asks “What’s a man gotta do to get fired?”  Hey I fully agree.  I always thought bonuses were for a job well done, not a salary for a crap job. I too rant about it here.
• Domestic Cents talks about “her daughter won’t remember we were broke.”  I can personally guarantee she won’t even realize it!
• Ginger from Girls Just Wanna Have Funds writes about “Going from Jobless to Topless“. Oh lord.

Have a good weekend.
