The DQYDJ Weekender (Week of 4/30/12)

Hey!  You reading!

  • Money Mamba

Links We Liked!

  • Control Your Cash talked me out of a work from home opportunity.
  • JT at Money Mamba explains that, no, it’s not always better to buy a used car.  Shocking!
  • Tim at Faith and Finances details the differences between subsidized and unsubsidized loans.
  • I completely approve of the very detailed post on Walmart over at 101 Centavos.
  • Congrats to Corey at Passive Income to Retire (among other sites).  Continue the hard work!
  • Have you ever seen a house with a seven figure price tag flipped?  Bring that irrational exuberance back with Burbed!
  • Interested in California now?  So was Ironman at Political Calculations, who has an interesting post on California’s GDP versus the nation’s.
  • Len Penzo says birth order doesn’t matter.  He’s right – and neither does astrology…  Treat them as entertainment!

Anything Else?

We’re beat!  Too much writing about Buy and Hold.  If you haven’t yet, read the series in order:

  • “What Kind of Investor Are You?“
  • “The Efficient Market Hypothesis is Flawed“
  • “If Buy And Hold Doesn’t Work… Then What?“

We’ll back up that writing with some hard numbers soon enough.


If you enjoyed this post, let others know!
