Friday Finance Findings for April 27th
Posted on Fri, 27th April, 2007 by Jeremy (1) Comment »
This week will mark the beginning of the new weekly roundup. The Friday Five name was becoming too much of a constraint and there are always more than five good links over the course of a week. So, I am renaming this as simply Friday Finance Findings and there won’t be any need to try and find five links to showcase. So to kick things off we have these great posts from the past week:
Can You be Too Conservative With Your Emergency Fund? – Ben fields the weekly money question this week and a group of finance bloggers try to tackle this question.
Technical Analysis vs. Fundamental Analysis in Pictures – The Silicon Valley Blogger does a great job at illustrating the two very different ways at researching stocks and the market.
Home Equity Loans and Taxes – Henry points out some important information in regards to being able to deduct interest from a home equity loan or line of credit.
Fuel Prices on the Rise – I hope Nickel is wrong, but it appears as if we are heading towards $4 for a gallon of gas in the near future.
Compare Your Savings Rate Against the National Savings Rate Guidelines – The Sun takes a look at how you can calculate whether or not you are saving enough according to the National Savings Rate Guidelines.

How Much is Customer Service Costing You (Part 2) – Probably more than you think! The Lazy Man takes a look at some of his customer service issues. Don’t forget to check out part 1 if you missed it.
Would You Rather be Working in a Different Position? – Free Money Finance poses the question that many people are asking themselves inside. Are you happy where you are now or do you long for something new?
Don’t Rollover Your 401k – I love Jim’s devil’s advocate series and this is a great one. He makes an argument for not rolling over your 401k into an IRA.




Thanks for the link Jeremy and I’m glad you enjoy the DA series.
