Sunday Round-up for December 26, 2010
Funny thing, this whole Christmas fiasco: At a time we should be relaxing and remembering the true meaning of our lives, and how it surrounds us, instead we let the commercial side engulf us. Time is of the essence in so many important aspects of our lives. So, in honor of all the time-crunched individuals out there (including me), this weekly round-up is going to be short and succinct.
Here are some of my favorite posts I came across this week:
“How to Start an Ebay Business” by Before You Invest
“Set Yourself Free, Get a Peace of Mind, and Have Fun” by Aloysa
“Get Me Through December” by Balance Junkie
“10 Free Sites for Personal and Family Budgeting” by Canadian Finance Blog
“How To Transfer Out of Wells Trade Without ACAT Fees” by Money Cone
“A Minimalist Lifestyle” by Ultimate Money Blog
“A Christmas Haggling Story” by Retire by 40
“Do Nothing and Grow Wealthy” by Money Cactus
“Time to Sell Year End Capital Losses?” by Money Reasons
“How to Profit in Gold” by Invest it Wisely
“Do Men Prefer Women Who Make Less Money Than They Do?” by Fabulously Broke
“How a Mortgage Works” by Wealth Pilgrim
I hope everyone had a safe, exciting, and fun weekend. I look forward the “I Survived the Holidays” posts.
