- “It’s Okay Not To Be Saving For Retirement In Your 20s and 30s” – interesting piece from Four Pillars. It’s good advice too. It’s encouraging to see so many young finance gurus on the internet, however, since they’ll have that one step up.
- “Every Exchange Traded Fund Known To Man” – wow Darwin, nice list! Worth a bookmark. If you can help him out with some unlisted funds, let him know.
- “Why Phone Insurance is a Scam” – good article, but anecdotally, it works for me. I got my first phone replaced (broken touchscreen) after complaining loudly and widely (but I didn’t have a phone for a few days). I signed up for insurance after that incident since I had only had the phone for 6 months. Since then, it’s broken twice, and been covered under the insurance (one replaced, one new screen). (Un)lucky enough to have insurance work? Maybe. However, maybe the key to phone insurance is getting it for your new touchscreen phones and not your button ones? For the record, I’ve now had the phone for 13 months.
- “How to Profit From a Weak Dollar” – you may be wondering this very thing. Since I touched on gold recently, this is a timely piece. Check it out!
- “The High Cost of Being a Moron” – WYOJEFF and I both had a car towed recently. Check those street signs! I feel your pain, man.

I’m glad you liked the phone insurance article. Obviously personal finance comes down to what works for you. For one phone, it’s a little different, but for 4 or 5 (especially when you have some spare phones you can slip your SIM card into if anything done happen) the costs outweight the benefits.
I’m a big fan of Annual Credit Report. I feel like it’s still a secret, but everyone should be checking! I do it every 4 months so I can monitor year round instead of all at once.
I just clicked over to the homepage and I liked the books Amazon was suggesting. One was “Don’t Quit Your Day Job.” The other was “Quit Your Day Job. Haha.
