The Wealth Builder Carnival #74

Welcome to the seventy-fourth edition of The Wealth Builder Carnival. The purpose of this carnival is to collect articles from the blogosphere on building, preserving and keeping enough wealth for a comfortable retirement. For reference, I have tried to keep the carnival content tightly focused on wealth building and did not include submissions that were off topic. For reading convenience, the posts are listed with a brief summary or comment by the submitter and organized into seven categories: Earning, Insuring and Protecting, Investing, Living Frugally, Retiring, Saving and Taxes. Unfortunately, Blog Carnival was having some technical difficulties two weeks ago, which may have limited the number of submissions.

And now on to the Carnival:

Earning

Shamelle presents YouTube Video Money How To Make Money Off YouTube Videos posted at Promote Youtube Videos, saying, "YouTube is the largest and most popular online video website, providing free access to a wide variety of videos.You can promote your affiliate products, monetize videos and earn cash. Here are steps on how to make money on YouTube with affiliate products."

Investing

Theresa Torres presents 7 Smart Ways To Invest $100 posted at Go Banking Rates, saying, "Investing isn't only for the rich as most of us probably think. There are several ways where ordinary folks like us can make a $100 now benefit us later."

Dividends4Life presents March 2012 Pocket Change Portfolio Performance posted at Dividend Growth Stocks, saying, "The Pocket Change Portfolio (PCP) was first introduced on September 13, 2008 as a real money dividend income portfolio funded by the "pocket change" earned from my various online endeavors. Each month I report on the portfolio's progress and update its holdings."

Living Frugally

Chase Dumont presents Don't Lend Money posted at Chase Dumont, Rainmaker, saying, "An Aesop's fable and a verse from Shakespeare sum up the wisdom on why lending money to friends and associates is usually a bad idea."

Jeremy Biberdorf presents Establishing Spending Priorities posted at Modest Money, saying, "Depending on your financial situation, you may need to make some sacrifices. At the same time, you don’t want to let your budgeting prevent you from enjoying the things you love. To stay happy you need to establish spending priorities and spend a bit where it makes you happy."

Retiring

Super Saver presents Going to Have A Lot of Free Time posted at My Wealth Builder, saying, "My retirement part time work load is going to be significantly lower after this month."

Taxes

Edward Webber presents How much Can you earn in 2012 posted at Tax Return Blog, saying, "Often people do not realise that they can earn a certain amount before paying any tax. This article explains how much you can earn in 2012 without paying any tax."

That concludes this edition. Submit your blog article to the next edition of The Wealth Builder Carnival using our carnival submission form. Past posts and future hosts can be found on our blog carnival index page.
