Carnival of Personal Finance is Up! Head over to Plonkee!

Plonkee, a witty British blogger, is hosting the Carnival of Personal Finance this week. Here are my personal favorites from the carnival. There are so many posts, I’m sure you’ll find something that you’ll love.

• Mrs. Micah: Finance for a Freelance Life asked How Would You Feel if Your Spouse/Partner Broke Your Budget. Being married, this post caught my attention right away. So far, we’re doing ok with this, though, I’m sure what we’d do if this happens. Gues we have something to talk about over dinner tonight. (He reads my blog, so I can put this out there.)
