Rich Life Carnival #13

Welcome to the 13th edition of rich life carnival. If you’ve submitted a post and can’t find it, most likely you haven’t specified a category. As I specified on the carnival’s homepage on blogcarnival, submissions that are not filed into a category will simply be deleted. I don’t have he time (nor the inclination) to read through submissions in order to figure out where they belong. With that out of the way, here’s this week’s edition.

Healthy Living

Livingalmostlarge presents Premade foods - cheap or expensive? posted at LivingAlmostLarge.

Personal Finance

Ernesto Maitim presents Fixed Rate Home Equity Loans: Offers Financial Freedom posted at Easy Home Equity Rates.

FIRE Getters presents Risks Of Cash Advances And Payday Loans posted at FIRE Finance.

David presents Success in Time of Crisis posted at Worldwide Success.

Joe Manausa presents Bailing Out The Banks? Actually Bailing Out America! posted at Tallahassee Real Estate Blog, saying, “While mainstream media refers to this as the “fat cat” bailout for Wall Street, you might be surprised who really needs this bailout to occur. What would happen to your job if the credit market stopped for even 1 week?”

HIB presents Top 10 Reasons Why You Should NOT Own a Pool posted at Happiness is Better.

Roshawn Watson presents Meet the Boring Young Millionaires posted at Watson Inc, saying, “One of the most common characteristics of the wealthy is that they live far beneath their means. Okay, that may sound trite and obvious, but the reason it is so important is because other pundits claim that you merely need to increase your means. Most people focus on income so they can continue their conspicuous consumption-oriented lifestyle whereas most millionaires focus on net worth.”

Roshawn Watson presents The Pain Of Paying Cash posted at Watson Inc, saying, “Available credit has distorted the psychology of consumers to the point where individuals are willing to pay significantly more for items later in order to delay the pain of payment. For example, it is a fact that even consumers who pay their credit card balances in full each month (often referred to as deadbeats) will often end up paying more than their cash-paying counterparts. According to Dun and Bradstreet, consumers spend 12-18% more when making credit card purchases compared with those who pay in cash. Even a 5% cash back bonus can’t compete with the “discount” of paying cash.”

Jim presents 40 Money Tips for College Students posted at Blueprint for Financial Prosperity.

Ben Dinsmore presents Avoiding the Stress of Costly Vehicle Repairs posted at Trees Full of Money, saying, “No matter how loyal you are to a particular make and model of vehicle, there is a very good chance that your “baby” will need at least one major repair while under your ownership.”

Self Improvement

Bill Urell presents Enabler: Are You Enabling Drug Use In A Loved One? posted at Addiction Recovery Basics, saying, “An enabler, unfortunately, many times is facilitating addiction through their well intentioned desire to help the addict or alcoholic.”

Mike King presents The Foundation of Beliefs posted at Learn This.

Chris Edgar presents Are You Overworked, Or Just Afraid To Delegate? posted at Purpose Power Coaching, saying, “I’ve worked with several people now who have trouble delegating tasks at work. I find that understanding what really motivates their fear of giving work to others helps put the fear in perspective. When they see that something that happened long ago, not their work environments or any other aspect of their lives, is responsible for their worries about delegation, asking for others’ help begins to seem less frightening.”

Wally Bock presents Help! I’ve been merged! posted at Momentor.

Michael Miles presents The wisdom of Elizabeth Kubler-Ross posted at Effortless Abundance.

Byteful Project presents It Takes A Long Time to Become Fully You posted at Byteful Blog, saying, “A musician’s words strike a deep chord of truth: it is indeed possible to fully become the highest expression of who you are — the best person you can be on this planet, if you only have enough desire and commit to that path, but it takes time and it’s important to be patient with yourself. Downloadable poster of the quote is included.”

Suzie Cheel presents Heroes of Healing 1: Brandon Bays posted at The Abundance Highway, saying, “Heroes of Healing is a new series where each writer looks at their heroes and what they have learnt as well as proving rich resources/”

Ms. Cheevious presents How I Met Mr. Tall, Dark and Handsome posted at Ms. Cheevious, saying, “I spent a few days in Aspen, Colorado on business a couple of weeks ago. You remember. I mentioned that I was off to Aspen, and you all thought I was living the jet-set life! Ring a Bell?”

AndrewB presents The Power Of Visualization & Getting a Beautiful Body posted at Binge Eating Forum, saying, “The role of positive visualization to get in shape, lose weight and get a beautiful body.”

Ken Schulte presents How To Generate Your Own Alternative Energy At Home | Alternative Energy Secrets posted at Alternative Energy Secrets, saying, “Alternative Energy Secrets is all about exploring avenues of living greener and helping out the planet. Saving money is also a great topic of discussion as well.”
