Welcome back to my weekly tradition of sharing my five favourite posts from the blogosphere/stories in the media from the last week. Without further adieu,
- Tax Guy from Canadian Tax Resource outlines The Right and Wrong Way to Split Income
- Kathryn, a frequent guest poster on MDJ (and frequent member of my list!) gives her opinion on Paying Off Debt: Lowest Balance or Highest Interest First?
- Mike at Four Pillars thinks Spending Cash is The Same as Borrowing if You Have Debts
- Jessie from Jessie’s Money contemplates a Joint Budget with her SO
- Canadian Dream: Free at 45 declares: The Library is EVIL!
This Saturday is my “negative one-th” anniversary: my beautiful fiancee and I are getting married next August 1st! We’re going to celebrate by going out to our favourite breakfast place 
We’re being frugal to save for the wedding. I’m trying to coerce her to write a guest post on things we’re doing to have a classy, yet cost-effective wedding. Maybe she’ll cave once I buy her breakfast!
For those that have one, enjoy your long weekend! I’ll be back on Tuesday.
Congratulations to you and your “beautiful fiancee”!! What a wonderful and cost-effective way to celebrate! I think your idea for an off-shoot blog about money-saving weddings is a great one. I regularly watch a wedding reality program on HGTV and marvel at the lengths (money-wise especially) that some brides and grooms go make their wedding days “perfect”, when it’s the married life afterwards that needs the focus. It sounds as if you and your fiance have your priorities straight! Good luck!
She’ll think about it
I did enjoy that Four Pillars article, it put my spending money into harsh perspective. Definitely something I am going to seriously consider.
