I was just browsing and found this fabulous resource for 20-somethings on MSNMoney. There are a lot of great articles, but here are the three you can’t miss:

• Top 10 Shocks for College Grads - Great article on the things that most college grads really don’t consider. Luckily I found out all about almost all of these things withing a few weeks of moving out and didn’t face any dire consequences. Mark this article as a definite keeper.
• How to not pay your bills - Bills are a part of life and 20-somethings need to get used to them. The worst thing you can do is pay your bills late because you’ll incur fees and basically be throwing your money away. Don’t do it. This article details the things you should avoid at all costs and gives some strategies for dealing with life’s expenses.
• Beginner’s Guide to Investing - Investing is not really something I have all that much experience with. This link is not to an article, per se, but to a collection of tools that will help you decide how best for you to invest. Quite impressive from the looks of it so have a look around.

MSN Money seems to be a great resource for everything financial, and I know I’ll be making a more concerted effort to visit the site more often. You might want to also.
