Welcome to the 18th Edition of the Carnival of Pecuniary Delights!
The carnival touts inclusion of:
Good posts that carnival hosts feel are still pertinent to the times and deserve an encore performance.
So, what can you expect from this carnival? Great posts that are timeless in their usefulness. Could it get any better? There’s something to be said for “oldies but goodies.”
I’ve also decided to use a celebrity birthday theme. With all of the celebrity deaths recently, I wanted to showcase a few famous people’s births that we all know/knew and love/loved. A few may be dead now, but.. that’s not the point :)
