Need advice on investing in these touch financial times? Lightbulb Press has a great collection of free financial PDF guides that cover topics such as credit, saving for college, smart investing, and retirement. What I really like about these articles is that they're written in laymans terms and are very easy-to-understand. They also contain lots of images and graphs that help convey complex principles in a visual manner.

Lightbulb first made its mark with the creation of The Wall Street Journal Guide to Understanding Money & Investing, a well-known best seller with over 3 million copies in print. You can easily find this at your local bookstore. With this success, they went on to develop a series of guides for The Wall Street Journal, including those about personal finance and retirement.

So enjoy the free collection, a subset of the more than 500 online educational articles, that Lightbulb Press has offered to you as a gift.

Continuing the series in our attempt to share some of the great PDFs being published, this week's highlight is Home Power. Home Power publishes the most comprehensive, technical coverage of solar, wind, and microhydro electricity, energy efficiency, solar hot water systems, space heating and cooling, energy-efficient building materials and home design, and clean transportation options.

This publication was launched back in 1987, well before global warming became common knowledge, and their mission was to change the way people generate and use energy. Their print magazine is available for subscription, but they also offer tons of great PDFs for free on their website such as: Get Energy Smart - Insulation Options and Top 10 Eco-friendly Building Products.

Check out their website and get some great ideas for green living!

There are tons of great PDFs being published and I thought it would be interesting to share some examples from publishers participating in the Ads for Adobe PDF beta.

To kickoff this series, I am highlighting a collection of PDFs from Remodeling Center, a part of the Better Homes & Gardens parent company. This website has over 240 PDFs that cover How-to topics for a variety of home projects catered to the remodeling enthusiast. Learn all the tips and tricks on how to tile floor, lay patios and walkways, put up crown molding and numerous other projects. As a homeownwer, I feel quite inspired to start up some spring organization projects myself!

In order to access the content, you'll need to sign up for a free account, but the helpful step-by-step information provided in these PDFs is worth it. Check it out at:
