Welcome to the Saturday Roundup of Credit Withdrawal posts and other interesting posts around the blogosphere.
As you might have noticed, this week was particularly slow. Just haven’t found the motivation to get down and write. Hopefully that’ll be over by this weekend. It’s also Memorial Day weekend and starting out wet here, so some of the yard work I was looking forward to doing isn’t going to get done. Hope it dries up by Monday.
From Credit Withdrawal this week
- May 23rd: Ask the Reader – What are You Doing About High Gas Costs? (7)
- May 19th: Buying Cheap Tools Doesn’t Save You Money (2)
Blog Spotlight:
The Blog Spotlight is where I single out the best blog entry I’ve come across each week, along with a short description of why I liked it.
Remodeling This Life – No More Waiting: Living Life Now
Emily has a short but compelling article on enjoying the life you have, rather than waiting for the life you (think) is coming. Sometimes if you wait too long, you miss out entirely. Kids grow up, you get too sick to travel or do the things you ‘planned’ on doing. Dreams can fade through time if you’re not careful. ".. Ten Years have gone behind you. No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun." Pink Floyd
| From My Reader |
| Being Frugal – You Tell Me: Sticker Shock at the Gas Pump As Lynnae would say Great Minds Think Alike! |
| Blueprint for Financial Prosperity – Can You Really Give Up Your Car? Good article, but in most of the mid-west, public transportation is only in the large(er) cities. My commute is 85 miles one-way, and no public sources are available. |
| Brip Blap – 6 ways to become famous Well, I’ve got #1 sewn up, now I gotta figure out the other 5 |
| Cash Money Life – Is US Currency Illegal? Having lived in Europe for a few years, I know about the colorful and differently sized money. I always thought it made our money look kind of sickly by comparison. |
| DebtFREE Revolution – CPI, Inflation, and Reality I was waiting for you to use your favorite ’stagflation’ word somewhere in there. What happened?!?? |
| DebtKid – If you never experience pain… That which doesn’t kill us, makes us stronger. Keep up the fight. |
| Gather Little By Little – The emotional snowball Too many people forget that money is connected to the head too. |
| Green Panda Treehouse – Creeped Out By Work It’s scary what some companies know about their employees and their work habits. |
| I’ve Paid for this Twice – Three Tactics To Get Everyone On Board With Debt Reduction Gotta try these (again) on the wife! |
