In the News - Consumerism Commentary, personal finance since 2003

* Job growth slows to a gain of only 138,000 jobs.
* Burger King beefs up IPO and MasterCard is expecting a nice public offering. Let’s go have a huge fast food dinner and put it on a credit card. Maybe not.
* Mortgage rates are the highest since June 2002.
* The Dow hit a six-year high yesterday.
* Here’s a car that’s powered by electricity but blows away a Ferrari 360 Spider and a Porsche Carrera GT. I say we harness this technology so the next generation of Toyota Prius won’t be so wimpy.
* Check out the MoneyBlogNetwork Forums for some interesting discussions for personal finance bloggers. All right, that one’s not really news.
