Well, this carnival was by email invite only, however, I just realized that the email also said that you could share the opportunity with fellow bloggers if you knew of any, so I am now posting the email here for everyone's participation:
You only have until Friday Nov. 9th to submit your form, although I'm sure they might consider exceptions to that if they get a good response.
The link to the form is:

It should also work in the email link below:
Hello PF Bloggers!
Happy December! The folks here at Betterment hope you are all doing well and getting excited for the holiday season.
As you all know, the New Year is upon us, and many of our readers, followers, and customers will be thinking about the best things to do with their money in 2012. In fact 33% of all Americans will make a New Year’s resolution related to their finances.
So why not help them stick to those goals?
Introducing….Betterment’s New Year’s Resolution Blogger Carnival!
This year we are hosting a carnival from 12/15 through 1/15 (or later) to help all of our followers digest some good content about personal finance in the New Year, and, of course, to give back to all of you – the PF bloggers who have helped so much in spreading the Better word!
So here’s how it works:
Throughout the month we will host articles by all of you on the Betterment blog! Up to two articles will be hosted per day, and they will likely go up every other day or so. In addition to hosting your article, we will include a direct link to your blog and links to your twitter and facebook pages. We will continue hosting content as long as we have it, so if the carnival has to go through the month of January, that’s great!
All we ask in return is that you tweet/post about the Carnival on twitter and facebook throughout the Carnival duration (of course tagging Betterment), especially on the day we host your article.
That’s it!
The rules are as follows:
1. Each post must be relevant to the New Year. Some topics for inspiration include:
a. Best way to stick to your financial New Year’s resolutions
b. Top 10 best New Year’s resolutions
c. Resolutions you should make in 2012
d. Financial Advice for 2012
e. Best resolutions for the passive investor
f. Investing predictions for 2012
g. Your own financial New Year’s resolutions for 2012
h. Stories about prior financial resolutions you’ve had and how you achieved them
2. Each post must be a maximum of 300 words. If the post is longer, we will trim it down for our blog, but will include a link to “read more” on your blog. We will of course run any changes by you.
3. You must tweet and post about the carnival, tagging Betterment.
To be considered, just fill out this simple form by Friday, December 9th. It shouldn’t take you more than 5 minutes!
As soon as we receive your form submission, we will follow up within 48 hours to schedule a date for your post and a timeline for getting everything live!
So thanks again bloggers! We are looking forward to getting the good word out for 2012 and sharing some of your awesome content! And if there are other bloggers you think might be interested in participating, please send this along!
All the Best,
The Betterment Team
P.S. Stay tuned for a custom Carnival tweet and hashtag to help everyone spread the word starting on the 15th!
Good luck everybody, and remember to post here on the date that your article goes live, as a reminder to everyone to visit and support it.
Mine is schedule for 12/21 as of this time.
