  • Nick from Step Away from the Mall leads us off with 7 ways to mess up your retirement, definitely not something you want to do. Want to rock it come retirement? Here are seven things you should avoid including too much of a focus on assets and home equity and not enough on having money to spend. Follow his suggestions to have plenty of cash coming in when you are ready to retire.
  • Next, Ted from Your Smart Money Moves gives us a wake up call by asking: What If You Feel Like You’ve Lost It All? Since the 2008 real estate and stock market crash, some people have been able to get back on their feet and continue to thrive in their careers and businesses. While others have dealt with devastating blows on their real estate, unemployment, and investments that haven’t worked out just the way they thought it would in the long run. So, what happens when it feels like you are so far behind or lost your money and are still facing how to hit your financial goals? Here are four tips from Your Smart Money Moves when you need to regroup and get yourself back on track to achieve financial success.
  • Of course your career is one way to increase your cash flow. If you are looking to get into a government job then read what Karl from CultOfMoney has to say about The only 3 ways to get a sweet-ass government job. If you’re looking for a job with good security, fantastic benefits, a secure retirement that can include a traditional pension, and at the same time something that provides interesting work, than you need to look into getting yourself a sweet-ass government job.
  • Michelle at See Debt Run is focusing on her cash flow and even knows what to do with it. This week she has written The Great Big List where she dreams about all the wonderful things I will be able to buy once my money tree sprouts and all the debt blows away.
  • A man who is always looking for ways to increase cash flow, The Dividend Ninja from The Dividend Ninja gives us a peak behind the curtain telling us how he is Building My Portfolio for Retirement, with Dividends and Bonds. In my mid to late 40’s, my focus of late has been more on planning for retirement and how I will generate a consistent monthly income to fund my retirement. I find myself in between the need to increase my portfolio through capital appreciation, but also for the need to generate monthly income in retirement. I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m better off creating a stable portfolio of monthly income, through dividend stocks and bond ETFs.
  • If you want some nice tax free cash flow when you retire then head over to see what Ryan at Cash Money Life has to say about Where to Open a Roth IRA. Roth IRAs are one of the best retirement vehicles available due to the long term tax advantages they offer. In this article we list the best places to open an IRA.
  • Things are definitely looking up for Jason at WorkSaveLive as you can see from his Blog Income and Site Statistics February 2012. I’m always a big fan of increasing cash flow with online projects and it looks as if this one is starting to blossom. “February was a great month for my blog! The traffic is continuing to increase and I made $65 of additional income from it! I love the side hustle”.

I want to thank all the great bloggers who submitted this week and ask you all to please take the time to head over to their posts and leave a comment. And thanks to my readers who make all this possible!
