Thanks very much for hosting the carnival and including my post.

I’ve been away for the past week, so I have some catching up to do. First stop for me are the posts in this Carnival of Personal Finance.

David — glad to have come across your blog. Very insightful in many areas.

One area you might consider further though is socially responsible or ethical investing. Contrary to what many believe, numerous studies show it compares very favourably to ‘conventional’ investing. Have a look at the studies on my site at: http://investingforthesoul.com/Main%20Pages/ethical-investing-CSR-research-studies.htm#Ethical-Investing

When we invest in a company, or many companies in the case of a mutual fund, we share in the responsibility for the activities of those companies as well as participate in the outcomes of their corporate activities. Anyone valuing their personal or spiritual growth has to take these things into account when investing.

I believe that if everyone does invest according to their personal values, then, since so many of core values are alike — and are supportive of higher ideals — that in the long run, only companies employing these higher values will truly prosper.

Best wishes, Ron Robins
