Weekly Reading 11/21
Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. Yes, I love the food. (Which is why, for the second year in a row, I’ll be running in a 5k at eight o’clock Thanksgiving morning in an effort to justify all the calories I’ll consume). But I really love Thanksgiving because the whole point is to be grateful for what you have. We share a meal and a day with people we love. Not to put down any other approaching holidays, but I like that the sentiments of Thanksgiving, for the most part, have yet to be completely obscured by full-throttle consumerism.
I’ve got a lot to be thankful for this year. When it comes to blogging, I’m thankful for everybody who reads Money Under 30 and leaves great comments and for all the other bloggers pouring their heart and soul into creating absolutely incredible content for the rest of us to read, enjoy, and hopefully learn from. Here are just a few examples:
- A great personal story about the road to home ownership. (Fiscal Fizzle)
- A short but important article showing the power of making extra debt payments. (Debt Free Adventure)
- The pros and cons of giving plastic (gift cards) as holiday gifts. (Cash Money Life)
- An important question to ask yourself: Is debt really what is keeping you down? (Suburban Dollar)
- I find this stuff fascinating: What real millionaires do. (Free Money Finance)
- It’s all tried and true advice, but a lot more fun when you think of it this way: Five ways to screw your credit card. (Squawkfox)
- Good advice for anybody tempted: The pitfalls of trading penny stocks. (Dual Income No Kids)
Last, but not least, I’m thankful for the Carnival of Personal Finance, and this week’s host, M is for Money. Great job!
