Better late than never, that’s what I say. So, on to the weekly recap!
- Probably my favorite post of the week was a guest post by Millionaire Mommy Next Door on Get Rich Slowly called How I Became a Millionaire While Working in my Pajamas. She talks about how she and her husband started young with a small income and achieved financial security by starting a business. Talking about saving money and cutting spending has it’s place, but stories like this one show why I believe that entrepreneurship and increased income are the real key.
- On a related note, Mrs. Micah wrote about determining what your time is worth when it comes to different ways of making money, particularly online. She mentions things like paid surveys, which can seem like good money but often work out to a very low hourly rate. I do like surveys for a little spare time cash, but her point of knowing how to focus on profitable use of your time is well taken.
- Continuing the income theme, No Credit Needed wrote about how just $10 a day can add up to $750,000 over a 50 year period with only a 5% return. Two points here: 1-Even a small investment really adds up over time, and 2-time is the most important factor, so procrastination is costly.
- Shifting gears, My Dollar Plan has a good list of 10 tips for holiday shopping online. I know that the convenience and lack of crowds has converted me to shopping online almost exclusively, and this list has some good tips to get the most out of it.
Finishing on a holiday note: 10 days till Christmas, are you ready? 
Hey, thanks for the link.
I enjoyed Millionaire Mommy’s guest post too!
