Carnival of Personal Finance #84

Carnival of Personal Finance #84 is up at Blueprint for Financial Prosperity. My entry was comments about a money makeover story in USA Today. It didn’t make into the Editor’s Choice. I will try to do a better job next time. These posts were selected by the host as the Editor’s Choices:

• Big Cajun Man presents Your Financial Resume posted at Canadian Financial Stuff.
• Michelle Cramer presents Teaching Your Child About Money posted at The Small Business Buzz.
• Dan Melson presents Save For A Down Payment or Buy Now? (Part 1 of 2) posted at Searchlight Crusade.
• Tag presents An Emergency Fund is like the Ark posted at EveryDay Money.
• The Dividend Guy presents Good Books for New Investors.

And here are some of the posts I liked the most:

• Car Buying Part 1 – Going For Broker by Paul Michael at wisebread. There’s also a follow-up post Car Buying Part 2 – Into the Devil’s domain.
• The Concept of Optimistic Bias at The Stubborn Capitalist
• Wedding money mistakes at The 100 by 30 project.
• Quicken for my little sister’s 18th birthday at Debt Be Gone

Enjoy!
