Clever April Fools Tricks!

I was expecting something clever from the blogger "Corey" at 20's Finances since he was hosting the Yakezie Carnival on April 1st, and I wasn't disappointed!

 

I combed his site looking for the April 1st "Yakezie Carnival", but it wasn't there!!!  Now, that's not the typical Corey that we have all grown to know, so I was a bit confused as to why he didn't post it.

 

So I emailed him asking what's up and he said April Fools and told me to look around (paraphrased of course), and sure enough after looking for a while, I found it at:  http://www.passiveincometoreti…..ril-fools/

 

He was pretty cool about it, even in his post…  Hat's off to you sir, well played!

 

Anyone encounter other clever April Fools posts?

haha – I did tell Don that, but to be honest, it was unintentional. Only after he emailed me did I realize the mistake. :) Sometimes you come up with something even when you're not trying.
