JLP’s Roundup
By JLP | March 21, 2008
It’s been a while since I did a roundup. I’m slowly easing back into blogging and hope to be back full force over the next week or so. I’ll be spending some time with my family over Spring Break, which is this week.
That said, here’s my latest roundup:
BIG SURPRISE: payday loans cause more bankruptcies. – If you play with fire you’re gonna get burned.
Nickel’s reconsidering his asset allocation plan.
FMF has a guest piece on life insurance planning. – I have written about this the past:
How Much Life Insurance Do You Need?
How Much Life Insurance Do You Need? (Calculator based on above post)
Determining Life Insurance Needs the Easy Way
JD takes another look at the Roth IRA vs. the Traditional IRA.
What the heck is a passbook savings account?
Here’s five questions to ask your creditors when making debt repayments.
Wisebread with an interesting post: Generosity or Stupidity? – I would say the guy in the example is borderline stupid. You must first possess in order to be generous.
Tricia with a review of Moneywise Kids – a money game for kids.
The Digerati Life reviews TurboTax.
The Dividend Guy analyzes the Dividend Achievers.
The Finance Buff makes a case against the Roth 401(k).
Finally, Jeremy blogged about a couple who lost their house and are now living in a camper. – Of course this couple blames the lenders for their troubles. This is par for the course.
