Carnival of Money Stories #15
By Mike | June 25, 2007
Welcome to the 15th edition of the Carnival of Money Stories. Andy has asked that I only include personal money stories and money experience – always be sure to check the submission guidelines! I had a very long list of articles to get through, but was able to find some new and interesting blogs. One lesson I learned was that a touch of humor helps to make your article stand out from the others.
My New Choice will be hosting the next carnival and you can submit your articles here.
