Aug. 30, 2006 - Question of the Day Marathon |
This month I am participating in a rotating "Question of the Day" (QotD) marathon organized by JLP at AllFinancialMatters.
Each weekday in August features a QotD hosted by a different personal finance blogger. All the other participating bloggers provide a link to the appropriate host blogger on his or her designated date. My turn will come on August 15. Hope you enjoy this feature and be sure to leave a comment on the host's blog to liven up the discussion.
