Rain

I’ll be glad when spring is here for good.

Well, after a couple of beautiful spring-like weeks, it’s feeling like winter again.  It’s cold and rainy.  Hopefully the weather warms up before Spring Break is here!

I have a few items of note before I get to the roundup.  I’m hosting the Carnival of Personal Finance on Monday, so if you want to be included, get those submissions in!

If you’re looking for more personal finance sites, I just learned about a cool site that lists the feeds from different personal finance site side-by-side.  Being Frugal.net is listed, too!  Head to Alltop’s personal finance page to check it out!

The Sweet 16 Round of March Madness is starting at Free Money Finance today.  I think both of my posts made it to this round, so make sure you keep your eye out for the posts "Bricks" and "Dollar" and vote for them when you see them.  FMF has increased the prize pool, and now not only is the winner getting $500 donated to their favorite charity, but second place will get $250 donated, and 3rd & 4th place will both get $100 donated.  I’m playing for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

Now on to the roundup!  Here are my favorite posts from the week.
