The Carnival of Personal Finance was posted yesterday over at Money Smart Life. The 102nd weekly edition of the Carnival was given a musical “theme” with help from Alice Cooper, The Beatles, and Pink Floyd. Here are some possibly Grammy-worthy submissions in addition to the articles Ben chose as Editor’s Picks:
- Lazy Man wonders if we are living larger or living differently than the generations that have come before. He has some explanations for those in my generation not being as well off as their dads.
- Should you accept money from your parents? In theory, Plonkee Money believes she shouldn’t, but in practice, that might not be the case.
- The Happy Rock has a few suggestions for what to look for in a personal finance system.
- FiveCentNickel writes about the difference between net worth and net investable assets, which I touched on how to calculate your net worth.
- Here’s an example from Grad Money Matters of expenditures while renting an apartment vs. owning a house.
- Ben also included my post on making money from John Adams dollar coins in the Carnival.
Next week’s Carnival of Personal Finance will be hosted at Clever Dude.
