Wow, it's been three weeks since we've done one of these.
In our defense, I was traveling with a 14 month old (and, well, we two adults)... and hey, we produced a bunch of articles in the meantime. You're obviously still reading, so accept as our apology this Weekender, and don't petition us to call this series a "monthender".
Links We Liked!
- Nelson of Financial Uproar defended that oh-so-capitalist holiday Black Friday. And, yeah, I would have bought something if I wasn't on the road with limited baggage space.
- At a Wealth of Common Sense, an illustration about how average returns look when you stretch performance out over longer and longer time periods. We have a calculator trying to show something similar, if you're into that kind of thing.
- We weren't the only site to write about the strange story of the 27 year old who allegedly received 80+% of his net worth through inheritance. J. Money at Budgets pointed out that the advice was pretty good, all things considered.
- Free By 50 has a graph of the increase in costs of various forms of fuel over the last decades.
- Moneystepper had some excellent articles during my hiatus - one examining whether post-secondary education is worth the sticker price in 2015, and another about net worths in Great Britain.
- We're always happy to see 101 Centavos around, and we got a chuckle out of his mole stopping article. We're 1/1 in our mole catching career.
