Welcome to the Friday, March 5, 2010 edition of On the Moneyed Midways, where each week, we review the best of the past week's money and business-related blog carnivals to identify and feature the best posts we find in each.
Should you pass on buying bottled water because it's a waste of money? What if your tap water is brown?
Did you get a mortgage on your house for the tax break? What would you have if you didn't have the mortgage?
What would you do differently today if you knew you were going to have to pay higher taxes in the near future? What if you're a business owner facing those higher taxes?
The answers to these questions, and more, are just a mouse click away!...
