First off I want to say congratulations to a couple friends of mine that are getting married today. I’m sure they won’t be reading this today (since they’re a little busy), but I thought it should be said anyway. So now I can get on to the weekend edition:

1. It’s always interesting for me to read about the latest moves by Warren Buffet. While I’m not solely interested in the stock market, I do find it intriguing and am always looking to learn more.

2. With the current state of the economy, it’s tough to find articles that espouse anything positive. This article from Yahoo! though, talks about using the economy to our advantage. I’ve similarly mentioned before that we can’t control what’s happening around us. We can however control how we handle our own situation. And if you look hard enough, there are some positives out there.

3. Zen Habits doesn’t usually talk about money and finances but recently he had an article up entitled, 20 Money Hacks: Tips and Tricks to Improve Your Finances. I would say that there is anything earth-shattering or actually tricky here, but there are plenty of simple tips that it wouldn’t hurt to try.

Fiscal Musings Throwback (FMT): Now that this blog is over a year old I’ll probably be revisiting some of the posts from, you guessed it, a year ago. Financial Literacy is something that I’m very passionate about and one reason why I started this blog. It’s not something that you’ll just pick up on the fly though, you’ve got to make it a point to educate yourself.
