How creative are you? I'm not sure myself, so a few of us are going to write an article that links personal finance to primates.
I'm super excited to see the interesting content that will unfold from such an experiment and I'm eager to have as many bloggers join in on the fun as possible.
If you think you're up for a creative writing exercise or want to make your blog more interesting, click on the link and join in on the party. The rules are pretty simple. Write an article about monkeys and personal finance, and post it on Oct 25th.
I have no idea how it'll go, but I'm hoping for 2 outcomes:
1) Interesting content that is truly a new spin on personal finance.
2) Challenging myself and others to improve their writing.
Are there bloggers that want to fiigure out ways to stretch themselves and improve their writing? If so, how should we support each other in doing that? This is one idea but I'm sure it's not the only one or the best one.
Thanks and I look forward to hearing people's feedback.

I participated, and I have to say, it was a nice break from the typical personal finance material I usually write about! (see http://www.moneyreasons.com/20…..your-back/)
It really was a lot of fun, especially embedding "The Monkees" theme song.

Thanks everyone for the great stories. I really enjoyed doing this writing exercise but I loved reading other's articles even more than writing my own. If you liked this one, let me know and we'll do it again.
I've linked everyone's stories to my main story here: http://firstgenamerican.com/20…..01k-plans/
If anyone has a story to add, please let me know.
