Spruced Up: Best of PF #3

Every week, I spend hours reading other personal finance blogs.  To help you out, I’m posting a regular round-up of all the best posts from the week, so check them out!

Update: I’m competing in the Yakezie challenge, and trying to get my Alexa ranking down below 200,000 by October.  If you’d like to help, you can install the Alexa toolbar, which helps improve my ranking. You can also share my posts on Twitter or Facebook, or link to them from your website or blog.

Now, for the the Spruced Up picks of the week:

Ashley at Money Talks shared 4 Steps to Being Frugal to simplify your steps to decreasing your spending

Dave at Money in the 20s posted step 2 of applying to MBA programs – Prepare for GMAT, which provides some great info if you’re thinking of applying soon.

Justin at Money is the Root wrote about an often-unexplored topic –  how to not over-invest your money.
