My post on the advantages of organizing your business as an S corporation was included at this week’s Carnival of Personal Finance hosted at ManVsDebt.  Check out the Carnival for Adam’s great photos of New Zealand.

The awards this week are as follows…  May I have the envelope, please.

• The award for the best use of a credit card goes to Anna who wrote about a wall-sized rainbow made up of credit cards currently on display at a Dutch art museum.
• The award for best family story goes to The Incidental Economist for  his exploits selling a family heirloom.
• The award for the best theme is a three-way tie that goes to the Suburban Dollar, Nina at Queercents, and My Money Blog who each wrote a post this week on the benefits of paying off your mortgage early.  I hope this may signal a national trend and the end of the CDO.

I also liked Jim’s post over at Getting Your Financial Ducks In A Row clarifying how to best divvy up an inherited IRA.

Robert Brokamp wrote a great guest post at Get Rich Slowly on the importance of saving for retirement, even if you don’t plan on retiring.  I think retirement will be quite different for my generation than it was for my parents’ (or their parents’), so it pays to keep an open mind about your options.
