It’s time for you to listen to our podcast again after a week hiatus – welcome Greg from Control Your Cash to the show and listen to me ramble about birthdays.  And probabilities.

Links We Liked!

  • At Free By 50 there are enough graphs to bring tears (of joy) to my eyes.  Read this post on financial aid and college costs.  Note that you’d probably get a similar graph with Government aid/insurance and housing costs…
  • Thad at Thad Thoughts wonders who’s the most frugal person you know.
  • Money Mamba wants to drop the Shipping and Airlines Industry from market indexes.
  • Boomer and Echo wonder how young adults can thrive in our current iffy times.
  • Jen at Master the Art of Saving knows that alcohol is more expensive than just the cost of the booze!
  • Bret at Hope to Prosper argues for closer banking regulation.
  • Obligatory Burbed post-Facebook post, “The Twitter Effect“!

Carnivals and Such…

Well, the 24th is our 3 year blog anniversary, so it’s about time I host a carnival here.  The Totally Money Carnival is coming to DQYDJ Monday.  Stay tuned.

And don’t worry, we’ll have our S&P 500 prediction for you as well as an anniversary post.  Big week!
