Breaking news!
Is it impossible to catch up on pop culture AND manage your money life at the same time? No! No longer!… Here’s one of the best ideas, ever. Check out MainStreet.com.
Think: take some of our nation’s national obsessions (like Britney Spears) and bringing her headlines back with relevance to your wallet. Did that concept just blow your mind, or what? Suddenly, this personal finance stuff isn’t so boring…(and we thought Geezeo was the only “fun” money place!)
Some samples:
Gary Coleman’s wedding — how can you prepare for a wedding or life partnership?
Britney Spears ditches court appearances (again) — how can you prepare for child custody or support?
NY Giants Win the Superbowl — how can you put a financial windfall to good use?
Right on, Mainstreet.com. We were getting lonely being the only “fun” money site around!

Hey Katie,
Great post…but we need to keep the NY Giants references to a minimum here at Geezeo.
Mainstreet.com is a great site…they’re definitely nailing the blend of pop culture, finance and life events.
Definitely recommend adding to everyone’s rss reader.
