Beating Broke

Here’s some great articles from around the personal finance blogosphere this last week.

• Money Beagle talks about When Saving Money on Groceries Isn’t Necessarily a Good Thing.  I’ve made a similar argument many times.  Saving Money does not always equal less spending.
• I think Free From Broke likes Health Savings Accounts.  What do you think?  Speaking from experience, HSA’s are awesome!
• Brad is going Minimalist, and it’s effects are showing.  I’ve seen the minimalist movement in several places recently, and frankly, the prospect scares the bejeebies out of me.
• Valentina has a thing for McDonalds’ Fries.  Why else would she write an entire article about them?  Go read it to find out.  A great perspective on business and life in general.
• Ryan ponders BFF-hood with people of another financial bracket.  It’s a complicated subject, for sure.  And a hard one to really wrap your head around until you experience it.
• Mrs. Money likes to rub her food all over her body.  I bet this link gets more traffic than any of those other links.  But, get your mind out of the gutter, it’s not what you think.
• And if Surviving a Tax Audit is in your future plans, you’ll want to go and read Jim’s post on the subject.

All-in-all, a pretty good week for articles.  Lots of great reading.
