Buying a house, getting married, starting a family, etc. all bring on different financial responsibilities. Consult with your broker about these changes and insure accordingly.

Trade in old books and get new-to-you books at great prices. Or, try something like BookMooch, where you can "shop" for books online and trade books you have that others want for credits. It's all free except the shipping (which will still come out less than the Amazon shipping price for used books). Even better: support your local used bookstore.

My book, BTW, is available for free download at my website, <a href="http://mommy.z-net.us" rel="nofollow">Mommy-Conomics</a>.
