Weekend Roundup-Memorial Edition

by RC on May 25, 2008

Aaaah, the 3-day weekend! Happy Memorial Day to everyone, please take a little time this weekend to remember why Memorial Day is observed. While our country is not perfect, I believe most people who live in the U.S. would rather stay here than move somewhere else, and much of the freedom we enjoy today is due to the sacrifice of individuals in the past.

I participated in 3 carnivals/festivals this past week:

Prime Time Money hosted the 140th Carnival of Debt Reduction: Circus Day Edition and included my post “Why some College Students Manage Their Finances Better than Middle Aged Adults”. Great job on the carnival.

My favorite article from the Carnival of DR was:

Your Debt makes Your Decisions for You at the Happy Rock.

Money and Values hosted Carnival of Personal Finance #153: the Q & A edition and included my post “May 2008 I Bond Rates Go to 0.0%, Total Rate 4.84%-What Does This Mean?” My favorites from the Carnival were:

7 Personal Finance Planning Tips from Millionaire Money Habits.

Until the nation is broke, viva la credit card from Saving to Invest.

The Financial Blogger hosted the #126 Festival Of Frugality – If I Had A Car Edition and included my post” Will the Slow Economy Cause People to Give up Their Lattes and Bottled Water? My favorite articles from the festival:

Survive a Recession by Gather Little by Little.
The social acceptability of frugality by Five Cent Nickel.

Thanks to all of the hosts, be sure to check out the carnivals for some great personal finance reading!
