JLP’s Weekly Roundup (Week of January 7, 2008)

By JLP | January 14, 2008

Here are some interesting articles over the past week from the MoneyBlogNetwork and beyond:

JD looks at the value of a college education.

FMF with why he posts on the Bible and money.

Nickel asks: Are you a registered traveler? – What’s a “registered traveler?” Read Nickel’s post to find out.

MBH talks about discipline and personal finance.

NCN talks about reworking his budget with another baby due. – It’s hard to believe that it has been FOUR years since my wife and I were expecting our third baby!

Jim offers up four ways to make it harder to spend money.

Amanda posts some tips on how to stop procrastinating that she heard on the Today Show. – I have always wanted to stop procrastinating but I keep putting off making the change!

Meg asks: Who pays for the first date?

I want to highlight two posts from Single Ma this week. The first is about the IMPORTANCE of having an emergency fund. The second is her review of Getting Started: The Financial Guide for a Younger Generation. – The book’s cover looks like something from the 70s! LOL! Very retro-looking!

Trent wonders if personal finance writers should practice what they preach? – My thoughts: yes they should. But, that may not always be possible since personal finance does involve making decisions based on more than just money.

The Digerati Life has some strategies to help you get out of debt.

Finally, Jeremy warns us to NOT let the current market conditions to lead us to bad decisions.
