Written by nickel - 2 Comments

Here’s a quick rundown of some finance-related posts that caught my eye over the past week:

Flexo reminds us that it’s open enrollment season with a post about his 2007 benefits choices.

MBH has been going to school to become an auctioneer. The story starts here.

Over at raising4boys.com, I talked about the danger of letting your kids get their hands on your checkbook.

Finally, I wanted to point out a couple of brand-spanking-new personal finance blogs that have been kind enough to link to me:

That’s it for this week. Please be sure to swing by the MBN Forums for a lot of great discussion on blogging as well as general personal finance.

Thanks for the quick mention. While I hoped to get the site off the ground quickly, we had a death in our immediate family and needed to travel, so hopefully next week my new site will be up and running.

Thanks FCN!

I saw your trackback on Jeffery’s article about Black Friday ads.

Since you mentioned “open enrollment” have you talked with your readers about the benefits of a HDHP and HSA accounts and the potential power of letting your savings grow tax-free in a higher interest checking account or mutual fund?

Just a thought, might be a good article. I work for First Horizon Msaver (http://www.firsthorizonmsaver.com) and we specialize in HSAs. Email me if you are interested in more info — could be good for your blog!

Thanks, Later!
