I’ve been relaxing this weekend by watching the coverage of the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. In particular, I’ll be keeping an eye on men’s basketball to see if the “Redeem Team” can live up to their name and Michael Phelps as he attempts to add some new pages to the history books.
However, the Olympics aren’t the only competition going on this month. Be sure to enter the Back To School Giveway thrown by the members of the College Money Network for an opportunity to win an iPod nano, cash, and other great prizes before school starts again.
To help get college students ready to head back to school, the College Money Network is also writing a series of articles with tips and ideas on making the most out of your money in college.
