Learn The Basics of Investing – Edition #197 of Carnival of Personal Finance

Learning about investing and money management is the key to handling your own money. Whether it’s buying mutual funds or individual stocks or just keeping track of your bank accounts. YOU have to know what is going on and YOU have to take responsibility for everything that happens to you financially.  This carnival’s theme is basic investment topics – each section will cover a different (almost random you might say) investment topic or product.
