I finally went back to work this last Friday, but even after just one day I was ready for the weekend. So I’ll get right to what’s up for this weekend edition.

1. Leading the Primaries: This article discusses Iowa and New Hampshire being the first states in the Presidential Primaries and whether they should be. Should these early states really be more influential than any of the other 48?

2. Hope for the Best…: Here’s a post from a recent regular reader reminding us about life and the importance of an emergency fund among other things.

3. 25 Reasons to Love Credit Cards: This article is from My Dollar Plan and lists off a bunch of reasons in favor of credit cards. There are some definite benefits to credit cards, but you’ve also got to be quite careful. Ultimately it’s up to you what you think you can handle.

4. Fiscal Musings Throwback: Why I don’t buy Mutual Funds explains exactly that. It’s not a post telling you that you shouldn’t, just some of the reasons why I don’t.
