Carnival of Personal Finance #285 – Google Search Money Stories Edition
- 35 Comment
Welcome to the Carnival of Personal Finance #285 – Google Search Money Stories Edition here at Realm of Prosperity!
I loved the refreshing Google ad played during Super Bowl XLIV, which used web searches to tell a story. And once in a while, I like to take things in a creative direction (check out this funky post). So, I’ve created three personal finance-related Google Search stories for your enjoyment as you peruse this week’s fine articles.
Hope you like them and please comment with your favorite video (the last one is another Search Story from Google)!
Editor’s Picks
Let’s start off my favorite articles by paying tribute to the personal finance blog that inspired me to create Realm of Prosperity over 3 years ago.
Bob from Christian Finances presents How to Save Hundreds of Dollars By Taking a Day Off Work. Life will entail making plenty of sacrifices and we will often need to determine whether a certain sacrifice is worth making. Should one less day of income equal much more in savings, is it worth taking a day off?
Elle from Couple Money presents Our Savings System – Reaching Our Goals. If you want an example of an elaborate savings outlook, search no further. Detail has always been recommended when it comes to setting proper goals – key to making them come true.
Miss T. from Prairie Eco-Thrifter presents We’re Spending Without Using Our Brain. The fact that our bodies, as a biological system, plays a huge role in our relationship with money management is often overlooked. It makes us wonder whether we should attribute our spending behavior to our bodies or our personalities.
Bret from Hope to Prosper presents This Year I am Thankful for my Job. The economy remains a rough environment and many of us are glad to have a job that allows us to put food on the table. Other may be more grateful for having a job that meets their financial obligations and intrinsic fulfillment.
