Pennylicious: New Blog from Neatorama.

Pennylicious: Finally, a Funny Money Blog! I’d like to introduce Pennylicious, our new blog on money, finance, and the economy.

Similar to Neatorama, Pennylicious will have lots of fun, neat, and regularly updated articles on weird money, collectible currency, strange economic news and and so on – but it will also have articles on practical matters like personal finance, money-saving tips, and more.

Here are a couple of excerpts from the new blog – I hope you’ll like it!

Did you know that since 1938 the Westin St. Francis in San Franciso has been running a money laundering operation?

Read about Arnold Batliner, who for 31 years ran the money laundering operation, and why it’s perfectly legal (and even desirable!): Laundering Money at the St. Francis.

The new credit card offer seems excellent: low interest rate, cashback rewards, free airline miles – what can go wrong? Plenty, it turns out – and it’s all spelled out in the small prints.

Read how credit card companies have different rates for different transactions, how they "unfix" a low teaser rate and jack them up to the maximum even if you haven’t missed a payment, and shorten the grace period so you have even less time to pay.

Catch the credit card "gotchas" before they catch you: Credit Card "Gotchas."

Hell may hath no fury like a woman scorned, but it certainly has got one heckuva currency (and with $8 billion denominations, inflation in hell must be crazy!)

Find out the who have been using it, what it is for, and why it’s called Hell Money.
