Carnival of Debt Reduction #64

The Carnival of Debt Reduction #64 is up and running over at Necessary Virtues. Credit cards have brought some positives and many negatives to the world of personal debt. I ask the question, What Was The World Like Before Credit Cards?

The Simple Dollar puts things into perspective for me with his entry Nourishment on a Desperate Income. It reminds me that when money seems tight, there are others going through much more difficult financial times. I’m impressed with all that Trent has been through and glad to see he is persevering.

The Debt Consolidation blog has an article titled The Debt Mindset that discusses how the influences around us contribute to the way we see and think about debt. I’m 100% in agreement on this one, as I talked about here.

Thanks to Steve at Necessary Virtues for hosting this week!

Ben Edwards, the founder of Money Smart Life, saved up enough to buy a Nintendo back when he was 12 years old. When he used the money to buy shares of Wal-Mart stock instead, he knew he wasn't like the other kids... His addiction to personal finance has paid off for his family and now he's helping you to afford the life that you want. Check him out on the web at Google Plus, Twitter and Facebook.
