Carnivals, Mortgages Rates and More!
The weekend is near and it's time for some great articles and information tidbits from around the web:
- Money Matter and More Musings has hosted this weeks Carnival of Personal Finance. As per usual, a lot of quality finance articles were posted. I submitted my article on How Bond/GIC Ladders work.
- With the 5 yr bond rates falling, it was only a matter of time before 5 yr fixed mortgage rates start to fall. Seems that those looking to get a mortgage today should be able to get a 5 yr fixed rate of around 5.70%.
- My favorite high interest rate savings account, PC Financial, has increased their payout from 4.00% to 4.25%!
- For the first time in my lifetime, the Loonie has reached parity with the US Greenback! A few days ago, I wrote about how to take advantage of the currency situation.
- Four Pillars has an informative guest post by regular reader "Telly (I like the name Bootsie better :))" on "Living and Working in Different Countries".

Thanks a lot for the link!
I didn’t know that she used to be “Bootsie”. I wonder why the change?

Maybe she’ll grace us with her presence and tell us a story. :)

haha! I was kind of using both for awhile (started with Bootsie on MDJ) but had registered Telly for google blogs. Since I used that more, I stuck with it.
My sister gave me the nickname Telly and my husband gave me the name Bootsie.
Should I go back to Bootsie? What do you guys think? ;)

I’m with Mike. Although I like the name Bootsie better, if the blog world now knows you as Telly, then stick with it. :)
