Acquire knowledge about finances / economics!

I listened to This American Life's show #365: Another Frightening Show About the Economy, and I've been hooked on NPR's Planet Money ever since. It feels like the Sword of Damocles is looming over 2009, doesn't it? So consider my advice: take charge of your own financial education. Subscribe to the Planet Money podcast. I have no reason to feel more secure, but at least I feel better, armed with the new knowledge I'm acquiring from the Planet Money staff.

Addendum 2009-02-06. The Planet Money blog (link above) is a busy page. The podcast is a little hard to find. Here's a direct link: Read about the podcast series.

A proverb that I learned from Planet Money.

"Brotherly love for brotherly love, but cheese for money." I actually have a lot to say about that proverb. Follow the link.
