This week saw some exciting posts go up, both on the simplicity theme, and dabbling a bit into investing. I discussed why investment accounts are better than savings, how to get over the fear of investing, and the benefits of consolidating your accounts. I also published the first-ever Ask Fizzle ‘column.’ Fantastic!
