			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to the November 9th, 2009 edition of the Carnival of Twenty Something Finances!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m especially excited for this carnival because <strong>it&#8217;s the innaugural blog carnival hosted at Foreigner&#8217;s Finances</strong>. I&#8217;m glad you decided to check out some great posts this week from a bunch of incredibly talented bloggers. On with the carnival!</p>
<p>My girlfriend has been cat crazy lately, insisting that we look into getting a cat for our apartment. I&#8217;m fending her off, but in the meantime here are some pictures of cats with money, intertwined with this week&#8217;s Twenty Something Finances posts. I&#8217;ve also posted links to the author&#8217;s Twitters, when available, so feel free to follow them over there as well.</p>
<p>Enjoy!</p>
