It’s been a great week for me. I’m done budgeting my last paychecks and my car loan balance is down to $1800. I still have money in my bank account for food and gas the next couple of weeks and I intend on spending it wisely.

Here are some posts fro this past week that I enjoyed.

  • Grad Girl has her first lesson in Free Fun. She shares a lesson in preparation.; I had a similar experience.
  • Are We Ready for a Cashless Society? Broke Grad Student asked the question and looked at the responses given. I as amazed how polarized the opinions were. It’s an issue that I believe we’ll continue to face as use cards more and more in our financial transactions.
  • Poorer Than You wants to “Know Where the Money Goes”. Actually Stephanie wants you to know where your money goes. I’m going to try this by using Google Spreadsheets. I’m interested in seeing I do.
  • I use Google Analytics with this site as I try to improve its usefulness. Jennifer shares what terms bring people to her site. She has a most bizarre search term.
  • If you’re a personal who love to examine the ethics of different situation, try MFA or Bust’s post on the Ethical Cheapskate. Better yet, read and share it with others to have a real discussion.
  • Spilling Buckets (our newest College Money Network members!) ask an important and self-examining question in The abandonment of work life balance: True job security. I’m happy that they’ve joined and this post is a great example way having them makes the network even better.

If this post was helpful, please buy me a cup of coffee. :D
