It's that time again to share your best post for the week. I have been using 3 – 5 of my favorite posts listed in my weekly round-up. I hope that others do the same. 

I enjoyed writing Top 5 Dying Regrets, Why I Won’t Have Them and Neither Should You since it was a bit different than my typical post and still managed to bring a money theme into it.

As always, I'm looking forward to reading your posts and using some in my weekly round-up post

This week, I wrote a 2 part 2200 word magnum opus on unspoken costs associated with the process of buying a home.

 Part 1 is here: Everything* You Need to Know about Buying a Home But Nobody Ever Told You.

 I'm looking for editors, beta-readers, and some demographic research for my upcoming novel, Once Upon a Saturn Moon. If you like reading soft sci-fi thrillers, maybe with a touch of romance thrown in, you can find more information at http://seampublishing.com/once…..aturn-moon

Easy money which everyone here might know but a lot of students probably do not take advantage of, selling the junk you don't need anymore.

This post is my favorite… mainly because after 20 years of living in pain I am finally pain free… and saving a lot of money in medication in the process!  I cured my migraines with magnesium!

This week, I wrote in detail about how I obtained my Masters degree from Harvard for $500. It's a lot of fun to be able to share my creative ways of financing grad school with everyone!

My best article of the week was the one today with a little story of my refinancing of my mortgage and some tips on how to get the best rates when you refinance

Of course my favorite are really the weekly roundups of all the great posts and articles that I see around here, just doesn't quite fit with the timing of the week though.  Go fightin' nines!

My favorite article this week was the one that we wrote on starting collections.

Is it a good idea to encourage your kids to collect things, or is it just hoarding on a miniature level? :-)

 

The idea of collecting things.. is collecting dust

Oh wow, that is one I read often. I was telling a friend about the buy one, donate three plan because she is still a shopper, she stops at the mall every week (like I used to). Great job! I love TheStreet. All of their advice posts are excellent.
