21 Personal Finance Lessons From Harry Potter via @Wise Bread

With the movie coming out, I thought this article was an eloquent way to talk about the movie and my love for the "boy who lived." As a single mother, I'm always looking at my personal finances to make the most of it to better my situation and I loved these tips in correlation to the book. 21 Personal Finance Lessons From Harry Potter 21 Personal Finance Lessons From Harry Potter I recently finished rereading all of the Harry Potter books in anticipation of the final movie's release. The first time reading the books, I was focused on the plot. But in rereading, I was struck by the reoccurring themes of money and personal finance throughout the books. (See also: 9 Ways Star Wars Can Inspire You to Save Money) Here are some of my favorite financial lessons from Harry Potter, coupled with either a brief description of the events or a quote from the book.

Thoughtful Celebrations for the Month of July

Being thoughtful in a relationship, whether its with yourself, your child or your partner is quite lacking these days. ( I'm speaking more or less about myself than the reader, but hey that's why I created this blog originally, huh?)


In any case, I found these great celebrations online for the Month of July through


I read a lot of publicity newsletters and Sandra Beckwith gave a great listing of upcoming July moments.


Here's an excerpt from her newsletter:

You can find a more complete list at http://bit.ly/mGnlb0.

July is Cell Phone Courtesy Month. If your book qualifies you in any way to address this topic, consider doing a Facebook survey to uncover the most obnoxious cell phone behavior your "friends" and "fans" have seen; highlight the best in a news release that includes cell phone etiquette tips.

Here are July dates with author publicity potential:

• July 1, International Joke Day. Do you write humor?
• July 2, I Forgot Day. Can you provide tips on how to remember?
• July 3, Stay out of the Sun Day. Give sun protection advice.
• July 4, National Country Music Day. Does your novel feature a country singer?
• July 5, Work-a-holics Day. Find something good to say about them.
• July 8, Video Games Day. Be counter-intuitive and offer a perspective that shows how they help, not hurt.
• July 12, Pecan Pie Day. Perfect for cookbook authors - share your best recipe. There are other food-related holidays in July, too.
• July 13, Embrace Your Geekness Day. Does your book include a character who's a geek? Maybe he/she should send a news release (in character).
• July 15, Cow Appreciation Day. Got a farm connection? Go for it.
• July 21, National Junk Food Day. It's a good opportunity for nutritionists and anti-nutritionists.
• July 24, Cousins Day. The cousin connection doesn't get enough attention - how can you give it a boost?
• July 25, Threading the Needle Day. Who has a book with sewing woven into it?
• July 30, Father-in-Law Day. Like cousins, they deserve more attention.

Be creative; have fun with it.
