Uncommon Money News (Vol. 71)


By: Roshawn Watson

In preparing to write my posts, I often come across noteworthy and sometimes bizarre financial and business news. Below are links to some of these sites. Enjoy!

This week, I participated in the Carnival of Financial Planning #105 hosted by: The Skilled Investor. We have the following posts included in this carnival: Have We Stopped Saving Already? and The Rich Get Poorer. Additionally, Have We Stopped Saving Already? was also included in the Economy and Your Finances Carnival hosted at One Mint. Last week, I participated in the Carnival of Financial Planning # 104 hosted by Four Pillars. The following posts were included in last week's edition The Rich Get Poorer and Outrageous Law Transfers Parents’ Debt To YOU.

New post Should You Buy A House Outright? was included in the Festival of Frugality hosted at Canadian Finance Blog, the Money Hacks Carnival hosted at Automatic Finances, and the Carnival of Everything About Personal Finance hosted at Nil 2 Million. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Please look through the carnivals if you would like to read plenty of other interesting posts in the blogosphere!

Also, I wanted to send a special thanks to Marshall Brain of How Stuff Works (I subscribe to this site) for linking to Should You Buy A House Outright? under their interesting reads section. This is so appreciated, and they do a wonderful job on this site.

To my readers: I am so honored by your support. Thank you for reading, subscribing, and for voting for articles from this site on social bookmarketing sites such as stumbleupon, reddit, delicious, digg, propeller, twitter, and yahoo buzz. Together, we are telling thousands of the importance of financial literacy. I absolutely could not do it without you. You are vital this this site, and I appreciate your help so much! Thanks.

With your help this week, we made the front page of multiple social media with the post Should You Buy A House Outright? !!! Thanks for your OVERWHELMING SUPPORT and also thanks for all the comments!!!!
