			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Believe it or not, there are <a href="http://www.walletpop.com/">other</a> <a href="http://doyoudaveramsey.com/">personal</a> <a href="http://www.getrichslowly.org/blog/">finance</a> <a href="http://www.commonsenseeconomics.com/">websites</a> out there besides Econ4U.org and it&#8217;s important you use all the resources at your disposal.</p>
<p>I wanted to point you to one such site in particular, from the <a href="http://ftc.gov/MoneyMatters">Federal Trade Commission</a>.  The site is called &#8220;Money Matters&#8221; (<a href="http://econ4u.org/moneymatters.cfm">sound familiar?</a>).  The FTC has great resources including a <a href="http://ftc.gov/bcp/edu/microsites/moneymatters/scam-watch.shtml">Scam Watch</a> that takes a useful look at a lot of the mortgage rescue scams that are abounding right now.</p>
<p>The site also has a bunch of <a href="http://ftc.gov/bcp/edu/microsites/moneymatters/managing-your-budget.shtml">short</a>, <a href="http://ftc.gov/bcp/edu/microsites/moneymatters/managing-your-savings.shtml">practical </a>tips and links to reliable information on credit repair, debt collection, vehicle repossession and more.</p>
<p>So take a look. (But don&#8217;t forget about your friends at Econ4U!)</p>
