I have been very lazy (and busy) of late and haven’t mentioned a few carnivals that some of my blogger friends worked hard on hosting this week. Today I woke up at 4:00 pm and my body is still crying for more sleep. This is partly because of a stressful week at work, resulting in lack of sleep during weekdays, and partly because, to relieve some of the stress, I was playing Age of Empires till very late in the night yesterday (btw, computer games are evil time black holes). Whatever. Let’s get back to the carnivals.
Carnival of Personal Finance #88 hosted by William Trent @ Stock Market Beat. Here are some of the interesting entries:
- Financial Lies - Ways We Convince Ourselves It’s OK To Spend by Jeffrey Strain @ Personal Finance Advice.
- Invest in Gold — Buy Gold by Sun @ Sun’s Financial Diary. I am suddenly intersted in this after reading this article on CBS Marketwatch about the possible rise in the value of gold in the time to come.
- My entry for this carnival was Analyze This; Late Fees And Other Penalties Are Necessary.
Carnival of Money Stories #5 hosted by SVB @ The Digerati Life. This is a relatively new carnival, but is gradually gathering steam. Some interesting carnival submissions were:
- How I Milk Sacred Cows for Cash by Sharon @ The Frugal Duchess.
- Huge stupid tax…timeshare by LAL @ Living Almost Large.
- My entry for this one was The Story Of My Investment In A Motorcycle.
Festival of Frugality #62 hosted by Lazy Man @ Lazy Man and Money. Nice job with the baseball theme. :). Some entries that I liked:
- Test Your Buyer’s IQ: Quit Wasting Money On Costly Crap by SVB @ The Digerati Life.
- How To Cut Living Expenses by Nina @ Queercents.
- My entry was It’s Easier To Be Frugal When You Are Single; True Or False? Check out some interesting comments on this one.
From the previous week, here are some carnivals that I failed to mention on time.
