The Wealth Builder Carnival #122

Welcome to the one hundred twenty-second 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.

And now on to the Carnival.


Earning


Bryan presents Best Paying Jobs For Women posted at Gajizmo, saying, "Gender inequality is still an issue in America, but there are still certain careers that minimize the compensation gap and offer men and women relatively the same advancement. Healthcare continues to dominate the list of best paying industries for women, but what other jobs offer the highest pay?"


Investing


Dividends4Life presents 6 Stocks Building Wealth Through Higher Dividends posted at Dividend Growth Stocks, saying, "To ensure a retirement that is free from financial concerns, there are certain things that must be done today. The stock market does not travel in a straight line. There will be times it will behave irrationally. These are the times that try an investors’ patience. Those with clear goals and confidence in their chosen strategy aren't phased by these market movements. Building a secure future by investing in quality dividend growth stocks is neither complicated nor overly burdensome...."

Vytas presents Fortunes are made when trends change posted at Trend, saying, "Markets present a lot of opportunities for short term, intermediate term and long term traders when specific market conditions appear for those who use appropriate trading system for specific market conditions. It is of uttermost importance for those who monitor market swings and trends to capture a change in the trend at the very inception of it, enter position or line of positions and then take a good bite off the move which follows."

John Schmoll presents Online Brokerages I Use: Scottrade Review posted at Frugal Rules, saying, "There are many outlets for your choosing if you want to invest in the stock market. They all have their features that set them apart. Find the one that fits your needs for overall investing as well as investing for your retirement needs."


Living Frugally


Jamie presents Why Cash Is King Everytime posted at www.jamiesmoneyadvice.com Blog Feed, saying, "Many people are having a love affair with debt. As we can see with the current debt crisis, increasing debt without discipline has consequences. This article explains why cash is still and always will be king and how you can use this knowledge to buy assets at discounted prices and save thousands."


Retiring


Mr.CBB presents Life, Money and Retirement~Skype Doesn’t Reach Heaven posted at Canadian Budget Binder, saying, "Sometimes we need to ask ourselves why we work so hard for all the money we make and whether we are spending our time wisely. Pouring your life into one basket risks leaving behind potential memories that you might not be able to go back and get. Take time to evaluate your life, your priorities and your future."


Saving


Jason Hull presents Is SAFEMIN Safe Enough? posted at Hull Financial Planning, saying, "Dr. Wade Pfau, CFA, and other academics have determined a safe minimum savings/investment rate so that if you save that much every year for 30 years, you should be able to retire for 30 years without running out of money. What's that number, and is it right?"


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.
