Body Parts, Winter Wonderland and Gratitude Roundup

by Joe Plemon on December 4, 2010

With no particular Roundup Theme this week, I combined the titles of three recommended posts.  I realize my Roundup title is nonsensical,  but who knows – it might solicit some readers.  Are you one?

I hope you enjoy these posts as much as I did.

Recommended reading:

Patience Is A Virtue, Learn It If You Can (but please hurry) at Len Penzo dot com … Len plots his home improvements.  They don’t all get done at once.  Or require debt.

Body Parts You Can Sell at Consumerism Commentary … A bit gruesome, but, well, you just need to read it.

Four Powerful Hymns About Stewardship at Faith and Finance … What do ancient hymns have to say about giving?

Peanut Butter and Jelly at Punch Debt in the Face …  I am peanut butter.  My wife is jelly.  Or is it the other way around?

How Much Money Would It Take For Your Job?  Your Family and Friends? at My Journey to Millions … Hmmm.  Do YOU have a price?

Gratitude at The Millionaire Nurse Blog …  Need gratitude?

Walking in a Winter Wonderland at Invest it Wisely … Not exactly what you might expect, but a funny and wry look at Christmas shopping.

Use Price Alerts to Get The Best Deal at Couple’s Money… Would you like an email the moment a price drops on the item you are shopping for?  Check this post.  It could save you hundreds of dollars this month!

Home Made Gifts versus Store Bought Gifts at the Ultimate Money Blog … Do you give homemade gifts?  Do you like to receive homemade gifts?

Am I a Financial Hypocrite? at Watson Inc … Are you a hypocrite if you want the national debt cut, but don’t want to be affected yourself?  Food for thought.

Joe elsewhere on the web:

My post Dealing With Poor Performance: Lessons From Simon Cowell and Jesus Christ was mentioned on A List Celebrity News and The Comings and Goings of Fame

Hmmm.  I guess all one needs to do is mention Simon Cowell in the title :)

@Evan,
At this point in my life, I am too settled and content to have a price. And if we were to leave family and friends, it wouldn’t be “we”; it would be “me”, because I am 100% positive that Jan doesn’t have a price.
