Welcome to the Financial Carnival for Young Adults – End of Summer Edition. Yup, summer is officially over. It was a great one for me, lots of weddings, lots of golf and lots of great weather. I love the fall, so the only downside to the end of summer is that the days are getting shorter. As you begin to prep for the fall and eventually the winter, be sure to take a moment to review your finances too. Staying on top of them will help you to realize your financial goals! Here are a handful of great posts to get you started!
If you would like to host this carnival or submit your posts, check out this link.
Don @ Money Reasons writes The Hurdles With Helping Others Financially – I’ve decided to do a new financial experiment and so now I’m facing the hurdles with helping others financially.
CAPI @ Creating a Passive Income writes How to Get Out of the Paycheck-to-Paycheck Lifestyle – It may seem hard, but it’s quite possible to not live a paycheck-to-paycheck lifestyle. It just takes some planning to make better decisions.
Michelle @ Diversified Finances writes Learning to Say NO – Many people have a problem with saying no. This can be a bad thing if you are feeling overworked, tired, taken advantage of, and more.
Kayla @ The Jenny Pincher writes Can You Afford to Live Alone? – We’ve talked quite a bit lately about the pros and cons of living alone and how to avoid roommate disasters if you choose to go the roommate route; but the bottom line when deciding whether or not to live alone is, can you afford to?
Alexis @ FITnancials writes Babysitting 5 Toddlers And My Crazy Experience – Last weekend was an exhausting and insane experience for me. I did my usual Care.com weekly check in to see if there were any one time jobs posted in my area. I found one about 10 minutes away and applied.
Jon @ Money Smart Guides writes Are You A Celebrity, Gambler or Straight Arrow – knowing what type of investor you are can make you become a better investor. See which type of investor you identify with most.
Dave @ Gen Y Finances writes Craigslist Scams and Mistakes To Avoid – It seems like everyday I hear about a new Craigslist scam that someone has fallen for. As someone who uses Craigslist all the time but has never been a victim of a Craigslist scam, I do know a little bit about using the helpful website correctly.
Karen @ 724 Credit writes Six Biggest Credit Mistakes – The current economy has wreaked havoc on many people. Many people, even those who previously had stellar credit, have seen their credit scores plunge and they are still suffering the effects of bad times with bad credit.
Maria @ The Money Principle writes A Cause for Concern: Decide on Supporting a Charity – For any community, charity is the difference between the pursuit for equality and the continued suffering of the desperate and less-fortunate.
Alexa @ Defeat Our Debt writes Should You Take a Vacation if You’re in Debt? – Your debt is stressing you out. Work is stressing you out. And you just need a little break from the normal day to day grind.
