Carnival of Financial Goals IV – Investing Video Edition


Carnival of Financial Goals

Another month has gone by and it is once again time for the Carnival of Financial Goals. There were a lot of submissions this month and not every one was included, but I tried my best to ensure those that were truly goal related. As I am following brip blap from last month, I thought I needed to get somewhat creative and decided to go with a theme of investing videos. Spread throughout this edition are various investing videos I have seen on YouTube – some are good and some are total garbage – I will let you decide which is which.

One more thing before we get going – editor’s choice articles are marked with a TDG .

The first video for you today is Mary Buffet speaking about Warren Buffett and Long-Term Investing.

Alternative/Passive Income

James D. Brausch presents Failure The Doorway to Success posted at Internet Business Blog.

Budgeting

DotLobby presents What is a Recession? 4 Signs and Symptoms posted at DotMakeMoney, saying, “Of course, you probably could have looked that up yourself, so let’s look at the subject in a more “How does this affect me?” way…”

Tying Up The Loose Ends posted at The Digerati Life, saying, “I wanted to share with you the completion of one of my goals for this year, which was to “retire” from my 9 to 5 job and the corporate world. I did it 4 months ahead of schedule! I am now focusing on independent ways of producing income.”

The next video has to do with debt reduction, with the well known Dave Ramsey talking about his strategies.

Get Out of debt

If you're stuck in debt and trying to get caught up, don't resort to payday loans. They almost always have high interest rates, so if you don't pay them back immediately you will just end up in even more debt. In these tough times, it's better just to learn how to be more frugal with your money.
