Weekly Highlights - August 24, 2007
This week will likely be remembered for being the week where two personal finance blogging heavyweights collided over The Simple Dollar’s advice about investing in a down market. (hint: read the comments on the first link)
I don’t want to fan the flames anymore, but Plonkee added her two cents. Anyways, on to my favorite posts of the week!
From the M-Network:
- Paid Twice tries to find the balance between living for today and saving for tomorrow
- Plonkee tells us why he chose a less lucrative career
- Gather Little by Little says there is no such thing as good debt
- Being Frugal explains how she is going to celebrate the start of the school year
- Moolanomy asks if you are guilty of these top 10 money wasters
From other great bloggers:
- Finance is Personal has a very timely post on 7 ways to avoid foreclosure
- The Digerati Life wants you to know the cost of having kids
- No Credit Needed shows you how to video tutorial on using the envelope system to manage your cash - Very cool. Easier to visualize by seeing rather than reading.
My most popular post this week was What Do I Need to Retire?
Have a great weekend, everyone!

Hey, thanks for the mention. I think Trent is quite conservative when it comes to investing and taking risk — that’s just my 2 cents. Looks like a good round up, but I will have to catch up over the week since I just came back from a 3 days vacation. Again, thanks!
