The latest thing...

...for me is a recent obsession with personal finance. Well it isn’t so recent. I’ve always liked the topic. But I think that it has become a bigger interest as of late. So… don’t be annoyed with the growing list of finance-y links on the side when I find things of interest.

I find personal blogs the most interesting because they chronicle individuals like me who are trying to figure the whole thing out. There are some good ones that I've linked too on the side.

To highlight other good sites, check out Mint to organize your bills, finances, and budgets for free, and check out Credit Karma to get an idea of were your FICO score stands for free. Credit Karma is only going to show you one score and since there are actually 3 that creditors can look at to make decisions about offering you loans, you are really better off knowing all three before big purchase. Still it gives you a decent idea of where you are without having to come out of pocket for it.

Live within your means.
