There are always some great memes and ideas from around the personal finance web. Here are some thoughts and quotes I’d like to share with you.
“Just like a horse needs to wear blinders to block out distractions, you need blinders to focus on paying down debt. So what the heck are financial blinders? A budget and a debt snowball.”
–Deliver Away Debt
“Definition of a Frugalite: One who is frugal, yet fun. A person who wants to save as much of their hard earned cash as possible – but in creative ways.”
–Money Funk
“There are quite a few things that you can do to improve your financial and personal state without spending even a single dime. One of the biggest is simply improving your attitude – the way you interpret the things around you and the way you relate to others.”
–The Simple Dollar

For example, an investor, who believes the world is falling off the edge of a cliff, will immediately act on those beliefs, sell everything he or she has, and be satisfied with the morsels remaining.
