It's been over four years since I started My Wealth Builder. As I think about topics to write , I often remember, "I've written about that before," and decide to find a new topic. However, since many principles of personal finance are timeless, I want to include them in a recent post on My Wealth Builder. Therefore, I have started a series called "Timeless Articles from the Archives" that will highlight posts from the same week in 2006-2009.
2006
Secrets to Career Success - Get a Jungle Guide - One way to develop good judgment is to get a mentor, or to use the Liar's Poker analogy, a jungle guide.

Why I Don't Use DRIPs Any More - To me, DRIPs are not worth the record keeping effort that is required.
2007
Brushing Up On Job Interviewing Skills - Since I had hiring responsibility in the job from which I retired, I know how the process works from the hiring side. I found it interesting to be on the other side as the interviewee.
Dealing With Issues That Can Ruin Retirement - I evaluated Bankrate.com's article on nine ways people can negatively impact their retirement.
2008
Timeless Financial Strategies that also Work in Early Retirement - Here are the strategies from my working years that we will continue to use in retirement.

2009

To me, the content of these posts are still relevant today and worth reading again.
