Debt $ense

As promised, I’ve added some links to the sidebar, though more will be going up during the next few days. Within all the PF blogs I read, there are a few I eagerly check for the next post because I enjoy them so much. In no particular order:

Debt Hater was one of the first I found, partially because of her blog’s name. Her posts always make me think, whether they apply to my situation or not, and she has a great attitude toward killing her debt that’s contagious.

Boston Gal’s Open Wallet is another regular stop. As a former Bay Stater, I’m always amazed at how people can not only afford to live there, but do reasonably well, especially when they’re young and single. Watching Jane Dough’s progress not only gives me great tips to use in my own life, it reminds me how much easier I have it down here without the housing madness in metro Boston. If she can do it, so can I!

The Family CEO doesn’t apply as much to my situation, since I’m single, but I enjoy reading it and she has some good tips even for those not heading a household.

Young and Broke does a great job of finding information that pertains to the situation of what Suze Orman calls the “Young, Fabulous and Broke,” then adding her own take on it so it’s more than just a link farm.

There are two carnivals I want to highlight, but I don’t have the links available, so I’ll have to come back and edit this entry once I get to the computer where those are bookmarked. One is the Carnival of Debt Reduction, which will post tomorrow. I took a leap and submitted one of my posts from earlier this week to this edition, and I hope it gets in. The other is the Carnival of Personal Finance. They’re great collections of PF posts that have helped me find blogs I otherwise wouldn’t have seen.
