What I’m Reading: #Yakezie Team 2 edition

I love the teams over at Yakezie. I am now on my 4th (maybe 5th) team. Each time, I get a whole bunch of great new blogs to read and bloggers to interact with. Special thank you to Suba who sets this up, and who is, for the first time, a member of my team this time round. Yay!

In fact, with one exception, every blog on my team this January is new to me. The exception is Dr. Dean, and let me tell you, I’m not complaining. I’d still be reading his blog anyway.

So on to today’s Yakezie Team #2 Round-Up

 

From Dr. Dean at the Millionaire Nurse Blog, a topic none of us want to think about, but I can tell you from personal experience is huge- Disability: Nothing to Quack About!

Super Frugalette says they have 1.2 cars! How does that happen?

Money Green Life must have been to his dentist recently, because he warns us about Money Fail #5- Prevent Oral Cancer.

Everyone’s talking about the FaceBook IPO, and for Funancials, his favorite article of the week was about how a graffiti artist is getting close to 200 million for painting FB’s offices.

I’ve been tracking our spending for years longer than I’ve been doing anything with the information, but American Debt Project just tracked every penny they spent for an entire month, and doesn’t want to do it again.

I consolidated my undergrad student loans, but my graduate loans remain separate. Smart Family Finance tells us why consolidating our student loans isn’t always a good idea.

Over at Wealth Informatics, Suba is investigating the changes in the retail environment and presents a shopping in the not so distant future scenario- Do you think this is possible?

We often hear about CEOs and other big shots at big companies getting major bonuses. And every once in a while, when the economy is bad, we hear about them not taking those bonuses, and we think to ourselves darn right they shouldn’t take it. But have you ever asked yourself- Could I say “no” to 2 million dollars? The Money Principle does, and came up with an interesting answer.
