Some great articles by The Money Writers this week:
The Digerati Life has written another great article that explains the ups and downs of the stock market in “A Stock Market Reality Check: What Investment Risk Actually Looks Like.” It shows that historically, down periods are followed by much higher markets.
My Dollar Plan lists […]
I read a report from RBS predicting that there will be a global market crash come the end of summer/beginning of fall 2008. The crash will be due to the price of oil, increasing inflation, increasing interest rates, and more global credit issues coming to light.
Here are some snippets of the highlights:
… the bank’s […]
Between a comment from a reader, hearing the song “Cats in the Cradle” on my way to work, and being a new father, it really got me thinking about what money really means to me.
Here is the comment that was posted a little while back:
When I was growing up, money was very scarce. […]
I mentioned in my last net worth update that I finally used some of our cash savings to pay down the non tax deductible mortgage balance. I’ve figured out that it’s a psychological battle with me to see my assets decrease. However, in the big picture, the money is better spent paying down […]
I really get a kick out of the MSN Money personal finance articles. The other day, they wrote about money personalities and how most people struggle with their relationship with money. They then went on to categorize 8 money personalities that people fall into. I’m not sure how much value it provides, but […]

I was doing my regular web money reading and came across an interesting article on MSN Money Central about marriage infidelity. No, not that kind of infidelity, I'm talking about financial infidelity.
What is financial infidelity?
This is where one spouse in the relationship overspends without the other spouse knowing. I can see this being a major […]
Continuing on from my post about "The best time to start is now", I'm going to expand on the concept with the KISS principle.
The KISS principle is something that I "try" to live my life by. No, it's not about kissing girls (or is it?), KISS in this case stands for "Keep It Simple […]
I get a ton of email from people asking "How do I start" or "I can't start my financial journey because I'm in debt".
The best time to start improving your financial life is NOW.
Are you in debt?
Start a plan to reduce spending, and putting more money towards that debt. You'd be surprised how much […]
Regular reader and commentator DAvid has taken the time to share his thoughts on sustainability and financial health. I thought that this topic would be refreshing as MDJ doesn't touch on the topic of green living very often.
The greening of our world has become a topic of importance to the Canadian public. The […]

The Tories have promised something for investors since they were elected. The biggest election promise that I was hoping for this year was the capital gains exemption that they spoke of a couple years back. The plan was that investors could carry forward their capital gains taxation provided that the money was reinvested within […]
