Visiting Sydney
G’day, from Down Under! I’m in Sydney, Australia for a few days with work. It’s just turning from Spring to Summer. Very nice time to be here. Everyone is talking about the US election. I’ve mostly heard a positive reaction to our choice.
The people are very friendly and happy here. It’s no wonder: they have 4 cities listed on the World’s Most Livable Cities List. And they do it all with about the same tax rates that we have. Good on them!
Carnivals
The Carnival of Personal Finance #177 was hosted by The Sun’s Financial Diary. My post on “Scary” Dining Out Expenses from my PYF Challenge Blog was featured, as well as my Interview with Robin Nakamura from Prime Time Money.

Lastly, Living Almost Large hosted the 37th Carnival of Money Hacks and included one of my posts. Thanks!
