JeepersThanks For Kicking My Butt and Inspiring Me
As the end of this crazy year draws closer, I can’t express how much help alot of finance/personal development bloggers have been to me. I subscribe to an insane number of feeds, but I wanted to say a special thanks to a few blogs that I read often:

Great links.

Aw, thanks for the mention! And enjoy the hot chocolate - don’t wait til you have a girl over, either, although this will surely impress her. Oh, and as one of my readers pointed out, this would make an excellent frugal gift.

Good call - it’s a pretty stable list and beats the pants off of paying a financial advisor to tell you what you can learn from these - I’ve had some of the same opinions of them - Good blog, just stumbledupon it - will be back…
