The Buzz Around the Web #27

by Caton March 13, 2015 ~ 1 Comment

buzz

Happy Friday (the 13th), and welcome to another edition of the buzz! This week has been especially happy since it has started to warm up a little here. The sun has made the days and my mood brighter. I’ve also just finished planning a short trip to Washington, D.C. I’ve been twice before, but when I was much younger, and my husband has never been. We’re incredibly excited to visit museums and monuments and explore our history. Let me know your can’t miss attractions and restaurants in the capital!

My Favorite Foodie Post

If you’re into food porn, especially of the international kind, you’ll love Uncornered Market’s top 40 street food dishes. You’ll find the customary meat on sticks and unidentifiable items that look so good you’d dig in before asking what it is. This post is really a great exploration of beautiful cuisines across the globe.

My Favorite Life Advice Post

Erin, the Broke Millennial, had an awesome opportunity to talk to college students about personal finance this week. To start off on the right foot people have to develop an understanding of personal finance before they are financially independent. Students have to know about student loans before they’re too far into something they don’t understand. I think more emphasis should be placed on teaching financial literacy, and I couldn’t agree more that talking about money is a must.

My Favorite Travel Post

I’ve known many people who have been to Ireland and absolutely loved it. It does look like a gorgeous country! The Brave Dame happens to be in Ireland right now, and she shared travel inspiration videos to get you excited about the country (or St. Paddy’s Day).

 Do you have any spring plans or trips you’re looking forward to?

    I am late to realize that it was Friday the 13th. LOL! That being said, I feel lucky to have enjoyed reading the 40th street food dishes. Some of it are really way more than delicious!

Bees Finance Rules

HERE ARE SOME SIMPLE GUIDELINES THAT WILL HELP YOU BUILD WEALTH:  

PAY OFF HIGH INTEREST DEBT: DON’T CARRY A BALANCE ON YOUR CREDIT CARDS

TAKE WHAT UNCLE SAM GIVES YOU: MAXIMIZE YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS TO TAX ADVANTAGED RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS

DON’T PROCRASTINATE: WEALTH TAKES TIME TO ACCUMULATE, SO DON’T WAIT

SAVE, INVEST AND REINVEST: LET COMPOUNDING WORK FOR YOU. SAVE YOUR MONEY, THEN INVEST AND REINVEST IT

SAVE AND INVEST AT LEAST 5 TO 10%: PUT ASIDE AT LEAST A MINIMUM SO YOU’RE STUCK WHEN YOU’RE AT RETIREMENT AGE

HAVE AN EMERGENCY FUND: IF YOU CAN’T SAVE 6 MONTHS OF EXPENSES, GET AT LEAST $1,000 SAVED UP

OWN: OWNING ASSETS IS GENERALLY TO YOUR ADVANTAGE. GET AS MANY AS YOU REASONABLY CAN

IF YOU ARE MARRIED, BUILD YOUR PARTNERSHIP: HAVING A STRONG MARRIAGE CAN BE AN EXCELLENT ACCELERATOR. WORK ON YOUR MARRIAGE AND CARE FOR YOUR SPOUSE.
