Money Hackers Carnival #110 - Burning the Midnight Oil

by Ryan on April 6, 2010

Well it’s back to college for me tonight. After receiving the password to review the carnival submissions (there were over 70) at 10pm it’s going to be a long night here at the ol internet cafe so I just want to apologize with the lack of creativity due to only being able to review submissions at the last minute.

I was able to test my speed reading abilities and have highlighted some of my faves that lit my midnight fire! Which one’s are your favorite?

Enjoy this weeks submissions in the Money Hackers Network Carnival!

Oh how I remember those college years :-) Since I’m up next week I guess I’d better get some extra sleep on Monday night. Not that I sleep much now anyway.

Thanks for picking my post to be in the Editor’s Pick section.

In response to “How Does a Bank Make Money @ Debt Kid” article.

I worked at JP Morgan Chase for many years. What people still find amazing is that banks make a good portion of their money on fees. Many times, the bank is not the actual “investor” but a “servicer”. Home loans for example, Fannie & Freddie were the main investor, however it was Chase that serviced the client. Making the fees a big part of our income.

Great job and thanks for hosting. One item of note, I didn’t get an e-mail letting me know that I was in the carnival. If you didn’t send this out, you might want to as there could be lots of people who don’t even know that they were included.
