“Why do you blog?” a reporter recently asked me. “What made you want to start a blog about money?” “I didn’t start writing about money,” I said in response. “I didn’t create a blog to help others seek financial fortune or to document my journey.

Are You a Member of the In Crowd?

One Frugal Girl — Fri, 29 Mar 2019 04:14:04 +0000

As a child I always cleaned my room before starting my homework. Even now I typically fold the laundry, empty the dishwasher and straighten up my children’s odds and ends before sitting down to work.

A lot of non-bloggers, and bloggers for that matter, question the motivation of those who write blogs. And these days with the invention of Google ads and affiliate marketing it’s easy to see why. If a PF (personal finance) or FI (financial independence) blogger encourages readers to save 50% of their income than why are ... Read more
