Well, I submitted my post `Trying to Have Patience’ to the 143rd Carnival of Personal Finance, which this week was hosted by Four Pillars. Happily, my post was accepted and is up with all the others!
In honour of Four Pillars’ heritage, it’s the `Oh Canada’ edition and there are plenty of other good posts listed. I particularly liked Value For Your Life, who posted on how to get your spouse involved in personal finance. I haven’t really had any problems in this area - luckily, even though my husband is not into PF at all, he is more than happy to go with the flow, knowing we are heading in the right direction … well, most of the time anyway.
And there’s another interesting post from Not the Jet Set, an American blogger who shares the story of some friends who seem to be ignoring the credit crunch and buying a home (plus extras) with no money down, smack bang inn the middle of the subprime dramas. I think my jaw would be on the floor too.
Anyway, take a leisurely look, as there are many more offerings that might be more relevant to your own situation. Happy reading!

Glad you enjoyed the article, thanks for the link! I’m really looking forward to reading your post on Trying to Have Patience: We have a lot of debt having just completed 15 years of school between the two of us and getting married, and are always trying to find ways to see the light at the end of the tunnel!
