The Sweet 16 is upon us. I hardly watch any college basketball during the regular season, but something about March Madness brings out the college basketball fan in me. Here are some sweet posts I stumbled upon this week:
–17 Things That Will Push You From Middle Class to First Class by Johnny Moneyseed: This post is pretty much the blueprint to a good life. Read it and save it.
–How to Kick Ass at Work by 1500 Days: It really is worth the effort to reach out to people in your company and form relationships. Any increase in compensation will stay with you for the rest of your life.
–Has Luxury Lost its Luster? by SeeDebtRun: I’ve often thought of this myself as luxury seems like an “old” thing now. Having nice luxury cars and a big home used to be a status of wealth, but nowadays it can seem like the sign of insecurity. Not having that attachment to luxury will ensure a good life.
–Save Half Update: $4000 Student Loan Paid in 6 Months by TrendyCheapo: I love reading stories about people paying off student loans. That’s because I hate student loans. When people sacrifice or find cheaper ways to do things and then apply those savings to pay down student loans, it’s a wonderful thing.
–Avoid Student Loans by Living Like a College Kid by Student Debt Survivor: During optometry school this message was given to us the first week of school, “Live like no one would now, so you can live like no one can in the future.” Basically saying be frugal as possible in school so you don’t have to take out student loans. I’m glad I followed this and minimized the amount of student loans I needed.
Great group of reads here. Thanks for including my post, I appreciate it!
