Bookmarked: Carnivals and More – August 24
Carnival
Kevin over at No Debt Plan hosted the 165th Carnival of Personal Finance: College Football Edition, which included my post on beginning my own financial check-up. Thanks for hosting!
Bookmarked
These are some of the articles that I particularly enjoyed around the personal finance blog world lately:
- Daniel over at Young and Frugal continues his series on how to get a job, focusing most recently on honing your networking skills. I have always found networking as a general concept to be a bit intimidating, so this was a helpful list of tips for me.
- Ron at The Wisdom Journal has a very timely post on housing contracts for college students. He is absolutely right that housing contracts are serious business, and provides some great things that college students (and parents!) should keep in mind.
- Trent at The Simple Dollar came up with an impressive fifty ways you can have fun by yourself. Friends are all well and good, but sometimes you just want to be by yourself.
- MoneyUnder30 has ideas for breaking the expensive habit of eating out. I have to admit that my habit is probably more social than anything else — still trying to break it though!
As always, have a good weekend everybody!
