Before we get started, please check out my first post over at WiseBread! It’s called “3 Ways paying off credit cards is like playing beer pong” and I think you’ll like it ;) Thanks guys! Don’t forget to pick up some pumpkins and/or costumes – only one more week to go until Halloween!
Fave articles of the week:
- Learning from a millionaire @ Money Seeker 3000 – If you ever come across any millionaires, learn from them! Pick their brain and take notes – Just like you were writing The Millionaire Next Door (or the new book coming out: “Stop Acting Rich”, woohoo!)
- Education is not the solution to all personal-finance problems @ I Will Teach You To Be Rich – Some people love Ramit, and others can’t stand him. If you want to know why, read this article :) I, personally, have a man crush on him – but I don’t necessarily agree with all of his stuff. Nevertheless, it IS interesting.
- The Rule of High School @ Seth Godin – My favorite quote (by Tom Hanks): “Hollywood is like high school, but with money.” Hah!
- The most common things people steal @ The Red Stapler Chronicles - Haha…I would venture to guess you guys have at least done half of these ;)
- Debt Free Day @ Debt Free Hispanic – “…wouldn’t it be cool if one day out of the year everyone would celebrate debt free day by paying cash for every purchase we make.” Yes!
- My Top 10 Worst money making ideas @ Quick Sprout- Number 1 & 9 makes me want to punch him in the face, but the rest are fairly creative. The reason I liked it though was the message behind it – sometimes you have to fail a lot in life to make it big!
