Carnival of Personal Finance #114

August 23, 2007 by TFB

Sorry about the late announcement and lack of posts this week. I’ve been busy with back to back business travel lately. While I was traveling, the stock market stabilized a bit after the Fed made a gesture. Countrywide got a lifeline, at least for now. We will see which shoes drop next.

Carnival of Personal Finance #114 is posted at The Simple Dollar this week. My submission was What Happens When Your Mortgage Lender Goes Out of Business. I also enjoyed the following articles in this carnival:

  • GOYB Challenge: Help Your Husband Make More Money at SAHMmy Says. This must be every man’s dream: Make sure your husband looks professional. Shine his shoes. Get up when his alarm goes off and make a simple breakfast while he’s showering. I didn’t know some people still get that kind of service? I had to look up what GOYB stands for.

  • When your mutual fund speaks for you, what does it say? at Money and Values. It’s tough to mix making money and social responsibility. Mutual funds have a lot of influence over business practices but they are not using that influence very much.
