Awesome collection of links! This was a great project. I really like the net worth calculation and plan for college articles.

Great list! I might be here for days!!
JLP, great site from all the blogs I’ve been reading on PF, yours is by far the best resource.

Tim,
Thanks.
Matt,
Thanks, too. I don’t know about my blog being the best resource, as there are lots of excellent blogs out there. I appreciate the thought though!

Here’s a new “how to” topic: How to Deal with Car Dealers. In a recent article I wrote, I suggest seven safeguards when dealing with car dealers:
1. Get your financing first
2. Check the calendar
3. Don’t pay for what you don’t want
4. Walk away if you feel pressured
5. Research your warranty options
6. Understand what you’re signing
7. If life hands you a lemon, hand it back
The details are in the full article, posted at http://ezinearticles.com/?Dealing-with-Auto-Dealers—Seven-Safeguards&id=286149

[...] JLP over at AllFinancialMatters has built a nice listing of how tos from other blogs in the personal finance community. It’s a long list, but you can pretty much find a how to for any situation, and he plans on adding to it in the future. My first look was at the careers section where Freedumb’s article on quitting your job really sprked my interest. Not that I am going to be quitting any time, but with my freelance work continuing to build a nice base, quitting my job may be occuring in early 2007. [...]
