Friday Round Up- Post Christmas Edition

by Jeff Rose on December 26, 2008

in Weekly Round Up/Carnival

day after christmas Friday Round Up  Post Christmas EditionChristmas has come and gone.  It was rather exciting to see our 17 month old actually get excited to open gifts.  One thing definitely learned this year is: open the clothes first.  We made the mistake of letting him open his new drum set and it was over.  He didn’t care about anything else at that point.  He was ready to rock out!  It was a blast.

In the blogosphere, here are some of the highlights of the week:

Over at Blueprint for Financial Prosperity, Jim had a really good take on Non-Stock Investment Options.  With the market as volatile as it has been, this might be a good resource for people looking to diversify.

Were you fan of the $700 Billion Bailout Plan?  Whether you were or you weren’t, are you curious to know where the money is actually going?  My Investing Blog sums up where the first chunk of the money has gone.  You may be surprised to see some of the destinations.

Nobody likes paying taxes.  Sometimes you miss out on tax breaks that you could have taken advantage of.  My Two Dollars shares tax breaks that homeowners should take advantage of this year.  Don’t miss out!

I’ve only been blogging since late July and have definitely learned a lot.  My Wisdom Journal just celebrated his one year anniversary.  Congratulations and see what he’s learned.
