Well that title couldn’t possibly get any longer.

Here’s a few informative read that I’ve found while cleaning out my bookmarks. Since I hardly give out link-love (because I’m a selfish jerk like that), you know these are interesting reads.

With an endorsement like that, how can you not click-through?

• An Intro to Ethical Consumerism - Sasha talks about being conscious with your spending dollars. Two concepts were mentioned: positive buying in which you support business or organization you believe in, and moral boycott, in which you avoid those that you don’t.
• Know Thy Enemy - Understand the Salespersons Tools - Jim goes over some of the tactics a salesman use to potentially get you to buy things you don’t need or at prices that are hardly favorable. A good read if you’re stepping into a car dealership soon.
• The Case Against Roth 401k - The Finance Buff makes a case against the Roth 401k. Some factors include avoiding high state income tax and not having the option to convert from Roth to traditional. If you’re making a decision on your 401k choices, read this post and the discussion at the Bogleheads forum so you can be better informed.

Lastly, Jim has a timely free eBook for recent graduates: College Grad Money Guide. A very simple five chapter guide on how to get a solid foundation with your money for our recent sheepskin holding peeps.
