Link Roundup: Philosophical Edition
This round of links is all about the deep thoughts on financial matters. Philosophical (and practical) discussions ensue:

  • Nickel of Five Cent Nickel asks, would the fair tax gut the economy? The readers have plenty to say on that subject. Me, I don't know enough about it to make it a deciding factor in who I vote for tomorrow.

  • My Open Wallet opens a discussion on the age-old question of time vs. money. For me, it's a no-brainer: Time. As long as my basic needs are met, I can happily do without unnecessary stuff so long as I have time to do the things I love. Every job decision I've ever made has been based on how much time I'd have left to pursue my passions.

  • Relatedly, Mrs. Mica is asking, "How much money do you need?" To answer her question, my magic number is $25,000. That would pay off all my debts, including my student loans, and leave enough to get a head start on retirement savings. My big hope is that the two novels I'm working on will eventually bring in around that number. But that's a REALLY big hope, especially considering the genre in which I'm writing.

  • Finally, Trent at The Simple Dollar lists ten things to do today to help you get back in touch with what's truly important. And wouldn't you know it, 9 out of the 10 don't cost a single penny.
