This Week's Carnival Of The Capitalists

This week's COTC is up at ProHipHop. My picks for this week include posts by Searchlight Crusade, Ripples, Interim Thoughts, The Coyote Within, Econbrowser, and Professorbainbridge.com. Here they are:

Searchlight Crusade breaks down tax-free exchanges of real estate in The Basics of 1031 Exchanges.

Ripples: post-corporate adventures discusses Tripadvisor.com in Good friends do not let friends stay in rat-bag hotels (love the title of the post)

interim thoughts has some interesting commentary on Corporate Social Responsibility.

The Coyote Within has some good career-related advice in Where Do I Go From Here?. Asking some of these questions 15 years ago eventually led me to my current career.

Econbrowser considers The latest employment figures: implications for policy. He has some great discussion of tax policy, the possibility of interest rate increases, and other issues.

Everybody seems to have jumped on the "boards should only have independent members" bandwagon. As usual, ProfessorBainbridge.com has a somewhat different take in A Justification for Insider Board Representation.

That's it for now. Don't forget to look around - there's always lots of good things at a Carnival, and you might enjoy some of the things I skipped over.
