Personal Finance Carnival: #3

Here's my not so regular round-up of the best personal finance articles I read from other blogs:

Financial lessons from The Office TV series @ Consumerism Commentary

The Consumerist has a post about four accounts you need and four accounts you don't

My Money Blog has 14 brochures to help you understand home mortgage loans.

The Five Cent Nickel has an article about how credit card bonus chasing effects your credit score.

John Chow blogs about Google bouncing Adsense checks.

Have a suggestion for my next roundup? Drop me an email.

Morning Round-up: What's Hot in the PFBlog-o-sphere this week?

The Consumerist has an article about a person who emailed Progressive after their credit score had improved (apparently the company checks your credit every 3 years by default) and the company dropped his premium about $70 for the 6 mo period. Not too shabby.

Frugal for Life has a nice run down of common renting laws and tips to prevent you from getting screwed by the landlord.

If you want to see the problem of overspending perpetuated in America check out the new version of the "Life" board game being co-sponsored by Visa called "Twists & Turns" over at the Consumerist.

Free stuff is always good, especially if it's good free stuff. The Five Cent Nickel is giving away iPods and well boxes of bricks in celebration of it's two year anniversary. Everyone can use a free iPod. You just need to make a comment on the page.

The Washington Post has a thorough article about how to fight back against the subprime fallout and keep your house (I know it's not a blog, but hey - it's relevant).

A Good Resource For All Things Financial

While I was surfing around today (procrastinating and otherwise being unproductive) I came across a site that I thought was interesting and pretty useful. It is called the Personal Finance Blog Aggregator. The name is pretty self-explanatory, it's a large directory of blogs written predominantly about personal finance. It's ad free and seems like it does a pretty decent job of screening blogs so you only see ones that get updated regularly and aren’t junk. Check it out if you are looking for something good to read.
