I’ve been doing a lot of writing for Wisebread this month, and I wanted to share some of my favorites here:

How Lessons from Moneyball Can Help Your Career: Loved the book, haven’t seen the movie yet. But the idea of finding something that’s undervalued and dominating it will certainly help you in your job. This post was also quoted by BNET, which was awesome!

6 Tips to Shrink Your Bills Every Year: I learned a lot of tips when I did my bill audit, and these are some tips I learned from the whole experience. People were pretty impressed with the idea of doing this on an annual basis.

Learn New Skills for Free: The Power of Forums: I’ve always wound up on forums when trying to learn something new. It was only when I was trying to learn how to build my own PVR (kind of like a DVR) that it hit me how useful and helpful forums can be. So I wrote a post about and some things NOT to do.

How Investing Drives Us Crazy: Lessons From a Trade: I made all the right decisions. I wasn’t greedy. I was responsible. I did my homework. And it didn’t matter…this trade wound up driving me nuts regardless.
Any favorites out there? I’ve been writing about career stuff a lot lately, and it was kind of fun to relate Moneyball to something we can all use in our working lives.
