Weekly Audit, February 6, 2009

Here’s a smattering of what was going on in the world of money matters this week:

• Donna at Bean Counter Magic wrote about Charlotte, NC’s new ‘license to rent’ proposal. A quick search revealed that other cities require this as well. Donna’s post goes further into what her city could potentially require of landlords. This is probably going to be an important issue as new investors enter the rental real estate market to scoop up good deals and provide rentals for those who have lost their homes to foreclosure.
• Rick at CPA Trendlines gave us for what to do if you get laid off. The tips are useful for getting a new job, and a productive way to spend those long, employment free days.
• Re: The Auditors introduced us to Another71, a blog about overcoming the failures, circumstances, laziness, and excuses that keep anyone from passing the CPA exam.
• ProfSilver at Talk Stock Trading weighed in on the many non-cash benefits included in CEO compensation.
• Biz Levity poked fun at Obama’s cabinet picks and bailout bankers.
