Hey everyone, I've decided to join the Yakezie challenge!
I started my blog about 6 months ago and I finally feel like I'm up for the challenge of trying to join the Yakezie network. I wanted to join a few months ago, but I didn't think I was quite ready. I'm ready for it now. My blog is currently ranked 374,421, so my goal is to get under 200,000 by January 14th of 2014. My blog post will show up tomorrow morning officially stating that I'm joing the challenge.
A little background of myself. I'm a Minnesota boy through and through, born and raised in the land of 10,000 lakes. I'm in my mid 20's and love everything about personal finance. My goal is to possibly become a certified financial planner in the future to help others manage their own finances.
I already know some blogs in the Yakezie network or challenge, but I look forward to meeting many more!

Looks like a Minnesota reunion here! I lived in Minneapolis 1991-1996, then got married and moved to suburbia (Roseville) 1996-2009. I do miss the Minnesota culture (but not snow shoveling!).
Anyway, welcome to Yakezie, and please post a link to your blog to make it easier (I'm lazy) for all of us to check you out!
Best wishes.

Welcome! As long as you comment around and make connections, breaking 200k will be the easy part.
