Carnival of Investing #36

This week, the world of investing falls into two broad categories (at least this week it does): Investing in the Stock Market & Investing in Real Estate. While I’m not the keeper of the flame, as its steward for the week I did take the liberty of not accepting some submissions that I felt weren’t relevant (I didn’t exclude any posts on the basis of quality though some would argue hosts should). If your post was clearly not about investing whatsoever or was more personal finance in nature (i.e. money management, budgeting) then I advise you to consider participating in the Carnival of Personal Finance if you aren’t already.

Also, I apologize again for this being just a linkdump of the submissions, I was away for the weekend at a wedding in Boston so I didn’t have the time to pull a Nick and throw up a fantastic carnival.

So, without additional delay… I present to you the 36th running of the Carnival of Investing:
