Weekend Link Love: Post Valentine’s Day Edition

February 23rd, 2013 | 9 Comments

Valentines day is now over.  Single people can taper off their Prozac and stores can now start stocking up for Easter, the next big over commercialized holiday.  Seven days have passed us by since the last Weekend Link Love and the blogosphere has graced us with all of the following.

First, let’s start with blog news.

• My post on money mistakes got mentioned by My Personal Finance Journey.
• My post on ethical investing got mentioned by Dividend Mantra.
• My primer on federal income and investment taxes was mentioned by Passive Income Pursuit.
• My ethical investing post also got mentioned by Write Your Own Reality.

Despite most of the blogosphere being busy writing about Valentines day and running various raffles, there were still a number of excellent articles published this week.

Presented in the order that I came across them.

1. Monster Piggy Bank discusses the benefits of knowing your neighbors.
