Straight Up Saturday, April 4, 2009

Here are some interesting money reads you may have missed this week:

• The Association For Financial Professionals reported on the details of the Treasury Department’s plans for regulatory reform.
• Philip Slater’s rant against individualism on Huffington Post made me wonder how much of our current financial crisis is due to an ‘overestimation of abilities’ on Wall Street. And is this any easier to swallow that outright fraud?
• CFO.com had an interesting piece on how some of Staple’s green policies are improving the bottom line – even in especially in bad times.
• Anil Rao took on big business bloggers’ assessment of MBAsat Intercalm. I especially like where he dug into the numbers.
• Our own Jeremy Wright cut his own salary, among other things, to ensure the health and continued success of b5media.
