This week you can find me in 3 different carnivals:
- ABC’s of Investing hosted the Carnival of Personal Finance and included my article on Considering Lifetime Subscriptions.
- Ask Mr Credit Card hosted the Festival of Frugality and included my article How to Get Ahead of the Game: Three Tips for Students. For those of you who forget, this was a guest post from Roger @ The Amateur Financier.
- Greener Pastures hosted the Money Hacks Carnival and included my article on Utilizing Technology to Slash Cable Bills.
Other articles I enjoyed:
- Stupid Cents had a post on Using an Employee/Student Discount to save money on a cell phone plan. I currently use my employee discount and get 22% off at Verizon. That is an extra $12 in my pocket every month… $144 per year… for doing nothing. All I had to do was fax a pay stub in. My past three employers have had discounts, so check with yours!
- The Amateur Financier listed courses he wish he took in high school. I am in 100% agreement with him in regards to the foreign language and personal finance courses. It its a shame that our schools are lacking in those options.
- Weakonomics detailed Some of the Different Google Services people don’t know about yesterday. Even though I think people often times trust Google too much, I do love a lot of their services!
- Studenomics gave some good advice on how to manage stress and prevent burnout. He offers his own advice and some advice from other bloggers (moi included!).
- Four Pillars wrote about a crazy business idea that revolves around computer games. I have never played any MMORPGs but he states his case and it goes to show that you should always be thinking about how you can improve… well, anything.
- Suburban Dollar went through a major site re-design, like myself, and also is having a second child. Go check his blog out and congratulate him!
Look forward to another week of posts! Hope to see some more readers and commenters! And have a great Easter!





I'm MLR. After graduating from college debt free, I decided to write a blog encouraging people to adapt responsible and sensible personal finance rules.
