Weekly Roundup – 03/23/07
Here’s a quick look at some of the articles that caught my eye over the past week…
Jim writes about the possibility that no-free balance transfers from Citi might be coming to an end. So… There’s not better time to apply for a 0% balance transfer credit card before the changes kick in (see here for details on how to take advantage of these offers).
FMF talks about how to save $2500 in 20 minutes.
Flexo talks about the best jobs when it comes to advancement opportunities. He’s also looking for guest bloggers.
JLP talks about predicting the future returns of the S&P 500.
MightyBargainHunter and his wife have instituted an allowance to control their spending — and they’re using dollar coins to make it more fun. Actually, I think that using $1000 bills would be a lot more fund that $1 coins, but to each their own.
Over at Raising4Boys I talked about some allowance guidelines.
Michael has some interesting thoughts on Dave Ramsey.
Jonathan has a tip for getting your FSBO listed on the MLS for free. No idea what I’m talking about? Then click through and find out.
MyRetirementBlog has a list of ten things your 401(k) provider won’t tell you (see also Part II).
Finally, MapGirl spent $850 on a car wash (not really, but sorta — you’ll just have to go read it to find out).
