The Wealth Builder Carnival #124

Welcome to the one hundred twenty-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.

And now on to the Carnival.

John Schmoll presents Online Brokerages I Use: OptionsHouse Review posted at Frugal Rules, saying, "There are many online brokerages to use as you look to invest in the stock market. The good ones are there to meet your needs and help make sure you’re doing what you can to be investing for things like retirement."

Living Frugally

Super Saver presents Prepared for a Significant Correction posted at My Wealth Builder, saying, "Although our stock investments are up, I realize a significant market decline can take away all the gains, and them some."

Retiring

Jason Hull presents The Case Against Self-Directed IRA Investments posted at Hull Financial Planning, saying, "If I would have put my startup in a self-directed IRA, I would have been account rich and spending cash poor after I sold it. Here's what to incorporate into a decision to put an alternative investment in a self-directed IRA."

Taxes

James Powell presents Tax Credits and Benefits Changes 2013 – How They Will Affect You : Tax Credits posted at Tax Credits, saying, "This post will look at how the changes in tax credits will affect you in 2013."
