Saturday – Links Around the Blogosphere #2

 A mish-mosh today.  Now that we are settling in to live on one income, I've turned my attentions lately to Finance, Frugality, Simplicity and Productivity.  Here are some articles that I found very interesting this week. 

Buying Experiences in Your Twenties – Trent Hamm at The Simple Dollar has some great advice for young folks just out of school.  This is timely for me as I try to figure out how to teach the triplets about money as they are growing up.

The Minimalist Principle – Omit Needless Things - Another terrific reminder of paring down to what's most important from Leo Babauta at Zen Habits.  Where I've never thought to apply this principle before is in my food choices, which he points out in the third bullet point.

The Source of Frugal Misery - Another great post by Trent Hamm regarding what we Value and spend our money on.

How a Haircut Lead to a Handy Acronym – JD over at Get Rich Slowly is auditioning some new guest staff writers.  This is a particularly good one on identifying the present and future costs of new purchases before you buy.

Getting Things Done Explained for Students - It's about that time when students are heading off to college.  Wish I had this when I went away to school.  Instead I read, "Getting up late for Hockey Practice," "Getting Beer Stains out of Carpet," and "Getting into Way Too Much Trouble When I Should be Studying."

That's all for today, see you Monday and have a great weekend!
