$!


The "This American Life" episode, The Giant Pool of Money, has been making its rounds on the net (see the NY Times article from late September). A follow up to this show was done last week: 365: Another Frightening Show About the Economy.

Also, check out
NPR's blog Planet Money as it's a good source for up to date information regarding the financial crisis. You can even follow them on twitter.

Thanks for the info Natalie! I wonder how low the price of oil will go. 77 dollars a barrel right now, 10.10.08. Maybe we will see gas below 3 dollars again?...That's a good thing right?
