For those of you who missed last week, I am hosting a Yakezie round up this Friday and last.  Here is why:

For those of you who have been reading my blog for a while, you will know that I joined the Yakezie network in June 2010. Yakezie is a network of personal finance bloggers that are helping each other to grow their blogs in popularity, ranking, and content. I must say that this group of people are truly amazing. Everyone does what they can to help out their fellow members with no questions asked. The teamwork and committment to everyone in the group has really touched my heart.

So, in an effort to say thank you to all of these wonderful people, I have decided to put a little twist on the PEP for the week. Today you will have the honour and opportunity to read some of the greatest posts from some of these folks. The stories they share and the advice they give in these posts will help you and anyone else you share them with to get on the road of financial freedom. Please, take your time to read each one to make sure you don’t miss anything. I promise, it will be well worth your time.

The theme today will be “What’s in Your Wallet”. Each post will link with something we should have in our wallet or reserves.  So without further adieu, I present you with the “PEP’s” for the week.

1. How To Make the Most of Kids Eat Free (@inexpensively)- in this blogger’s wallet we find coupons, the Entertainment book, and Restaurant.com certificates so that she can take her kids out for some treats without going broke.

2. Why Won’t Money Buy Me Happiness (@financiallypoor) - this blogger realizes that there is nothing in his wallet that is going to make him happy. Instead, he has to look inside himself.

3. Should You Reduce Car Costs Through Auto Loan Refinancing (@redeemingriches)- in this blogger’s wallet  we find his good credit score. This helps him reduce his car costs by getting a better rate on his auto loan.

4. Living to 100 and Beyond: Building an Infinite Portfolio (@investitwisely) - in this blogger’s wallet he finds a picture of himself as an old man so he takes steps to make sure he is prepared for getting older.

5. Letter to Myself 10 Years Down the Road (@budgetingthefunstuff)- in this blogger’s wallet we find a letter she wrote to herself  about the things she wants to accomplish in 10 years. With the change of seasons, it’s a great time to take a moment to re-evaluate your future plans.

6. Another Case for Emergency Savings- Credit Score (@freefrombroke)- in this blogger’s wallet we find an emergency plan with savings attached. That way he is prepared for whatever hits him.

7. The Power of 1 Can Simplify Your Finances (@simplefinanciallifestyle)- in this blogger’s wallet we find simplification: one credit card, one debit card, one auto insurance card, etc. He sets the limit and lives by it.

8. Whatever Can Be on Your Mind? (@aloysaskitchensink)- in this blogger’s wallet we find her business card but not a picture of her husband. Hmmm…could there be a reason why? Read on.

9. Why Do We Pay Tips for Certain Services? (@knsfinancial) – in this blogger’s wallet we see money, but no money alloted for tips. For him, good service means a returning customer.

10. 5 Ways Your Job Can Kill You (@passivefamilyincome) – in this blogger’s wallet we find a plan on how to get enough sleep, reduce stress, and eat well.

Well, this concludes the round up. I hope you have found some helpful tips in these bloggers wallets.

Cheers and happy Friday.
