March 22, 2009 Link Payday
Welcome to our Link Payday March 22, 2009 edition! It’s heating up a bit here in the islands but the weather is still unpredictable. Here’s a few of the best personal finance blogosphere posts of the last couple of weeks:
Tricia over at Blogging Away Debt highlights An Awesome Quote which is everything that needs to be said about the vast majority of people dealing with this economic crisis. How simple, how true, how difficult.
Lynnae over at Being Frugal uses her weekly Tuesday topic to bring up a long forgotten way to spend less on your wardrobe (or lots of other things for that matter when she writes Tightwad Tuesday: Something Borrowed. There are many times I will borrow or lend items to friends, but it’s really important to return and to express appreciation as well!
One of the personal finance blogs I think is underrated, Her Every Cent Counts, highlights an interesting issue when she writes about how 4 in 10 Americans Don’t Know When They’ll Retire. She reports on an ING Direct study here on this concerning issue.
Paid Twice blogs about The Art of Not Accepting No For an Answer when she looks at ways to assert yourself. Does it always work? No, but there are many times that by simply trying to figure out what alternatives you have, you can get an outcome that’s closer to what you want.
And finally, since I’m about done (finally!) refinancing the mortgage, I’m going through all the information available out there and in my head about these huge loans. Moolanomy tackles a difficult one to explain around this subject (including President Obama’s Making Home Affordable program) with What is Loan Modification?
And that’s your March 22, 2009 Link Payday!
