Personal Finance: The Week in Review # 3

“Personal Finance: The Week in Review” is a weekly series of posts highlighting my favorite personal finance articles from around the blogosphere.

Three weeks of personal finance blogging are now in the books and I think it’s safe to say that I’ve found my groove. As I scour dozens of financial websites and listen to a good two hours of talk radio each day during my commute to and from work, I’m constantly coming up with new ideas for posts. At the rate things are going, I’m planning on posting two articles each week (Tuesdays and Thursdays most likely) and then the Week in Review on Saturday mornings.

I should also mention that I would absolutely LOVE to get your feedback if you have a few minutes to spare. If there’s a particular topic you’d be interested in reading about, let me know and I’ll add it to the queue.
