I had articles in four different carnivals this week. Here they are:

• Best of Money Carnival – Ripped Off: Can You Trust Your Financial Adviser?

 

• Carnival of Personal Finance – Who or What Is Mammon?

 

• Festival of Frugality – Why We’re Not Buying Life Insurance (Yet)

 

• Money Hacks Carnival – How Big of a Mortgage Can I Afford?

       Mike at The Oblivious Investor has eleven tips for selecting mutual funds. Using his tips and a little research, you’ll see why it’s wise to invest in index mutual funds. Those tips will also give you an informed mindset when you approach investing so you won’t be caught up in all the financial noise the media throws at us every day.

Announcing the Christian Finance Blog Report!

       Craig at Money Help for Christians has pulled together Christian bloggers who write about personal finance to create a monthly report summarizing the best writing in Christian personal finance over the past month. If you want to read quality writing about personal finance from a Christian perspective but you don’t want to receive daily articles in your e-mail or feed reader, then the Christian Finance Blog Report is especially for you.

       Craig will be giving away $25 to one person who signs up for the report in November through a random drawing. So if you’d like to get the report and have a chance to win $25, make sure you sign up for the Christian Finance Blog Report today. Have a great weekend!
