Well, the unofficial start of summer, anyway. Hope everyone had a nice holiday. The weather in my neck of the woods was great. They sure messed up the forecast. Here are some of the best posts that I read this past week:
Brett at The Art of Manliness highlighted some motivational posters featuring Theodore Roosevelt;
WC Porter at Wise Bread asks: Are you a hammer or a Swiss Army Knife?;
Brad Isaac at Persistence Unlimited gives us lifestyle changes that stick;
Kevin at No Debt Plan created a stop doing list;
Pat at Smart Passive Income wants us to try virtual assistants;
Scott H. Young tells us not to burn our ships;
Steve at Brip Blap bids farewell to New Jersey;
Congratulations to David as The Good Human turned 3 years old last week;
David also tells us how he lives simply at his other blog, Simple.Organized.Life;
Mr. TML at Tough Money Love warns us not to let this financial crisis go to waste;
Five Cent Nickel tells us that stocks are for losers;
Blunt Money tells us that the universe will conspire to achieve what we want;
Jacob at Early Retirement Extreme tells us that the wealthy shall inherit the Earth;
Free Money Finance says that the poor economy is having little impact on him;
Mark Shead at Productivity 501 shows us that doing something new raises your IQ.
Well, this week in the States, Tuesday is like Monday, so if you’re an optimist, it’s a short work week. Or, if you’re a pessimist, you have 20% less time to get your work done. If you’re a realist like me, just hang in there, Friday’s coming.
