For the first time in a while I submitted something to the Carnival of Personal Finance, and this last edition happened to be hosted over at fellow M-Network member “>Gather Little By Little. My post was “How We Managed To Survive Financially After I Left My Corporate Job“. Thanks for hosting GLBL!
