Carnivals are in Town!

This week a reader asked, “What is a carnival?” It’s a showcase of all the best articles for the week (or month) from blogs about a certain topic. Different sites take turns hosting and each of the participating sites and others link back. It gives readers a great place to read about all the new articles on a certain topic, and it gives writers a chance to showcase their best posts to a larger audience.

With that, here’s the carnivals that My Dollar Plan participated in and my favorite articles at each:

Carnival of Debt Reduction

• Featuring When Does the 0% Credit Card Really Expire? It won an editor’s choice…. hooray!
• Money Liberty addresses the Psychology of 0% Interest Rates and his personal experience with Citi.

Carnival of Personal Finance

• I answered the question - Roth 401k: What is it?
