Personal Finance Review – Car Seat Edition

Babies cost money! We had to buy a new convertible car seat for our little guy since he outgrew his first car seat. Installing it was a pain; it would be neat if someone had a website where people could upload videos of how they installed their specific brand and model of car seat.

The good news is we bought a convertible seat so it should last for a while and keep us from having to buy another car seat for many years. Here are some money articles I enjoyed this week.

-Binary Dollar reminds us to create a budget that’s easy to keep.

-Blueprint for Financial Prosperity has some tips on paying your way, sharing the costs of fun among the group.

-Money, Matter, & More asks if David Bach’s real estate numbers are misleading.

-Mighty Bargain Hunter discusses eBay shipping charges. eBay is cracking down on people that overcharge but it definitely still happens.

– The Digerati Life has a list I really liked entitled 10 Steps to Becoming a Millionaire. A great list with good advice.

-Consumerism Commentary asks if you should pay your mortgage with a credit card.

– No Credit Needed talks about how to decide which debt to pay off first.

-The Simple Dollar provides six tips on shopping for cell phone service.

Enjoy your summer Sunday!
