Character is often overlooked, I think you nailed it with this blog post. Most people like focusing on the fun stuff, but steer away from the thing that require true character and responsibility.

It pays to be careful. While I wouldn't rule out investing in stocks completely, I would suggest a careful strategy, by just focusing on strong companies that are leaders in their fields, and that also pay dividends. The stock prices are so low now, that those dividends are giving yields of 7%, 8% or more. Not bad while we wait for the price appreciation. @Meg Guiseppi

Hiring managers are digging into all kinds of information about candidates they're vetting. They don't stop at Googling their names to find digital dirt. It seems that it's not difficult for them to completely lay bare everything about prospective employees. And I love your personal finance guide. It's extremely comprehensive and very helpful, although I'd be leery of investing in stocks right now.
