Hello fellow bloggers!  We are very excited to join your ranks on this forum and in 6 months time we hope to join you in the Yakezie challenge!  I was not sure if I should say hello and introduce ourselves in the PF or lifestyle sub-forum as our blog really blends both worlds!

 

We recently launched our site: sustainablepersonalfinance.com over the weekend.  We enjoyed writing the preliminary articles and we hope to publish more very soon.

 

We are a married couple living in Ontario, Canada who strive to
balance our financial goals with our ethics and morals regarding
sustainable living.  Achieving this balance takes a lot of compromise,
detailed discussions and careful evaluation of how we handle our
personal finances while doing what we can to protect the earth and act
socially responsible.

Our goal is to retire in just under 25 years with our financial house
in order with our minds at rest knowing we did the best that we could
to live a sustainable lifestyle.

There are two authors on this site.  Sustainable PF will primarily
write about all things financial that we encounter, entertain and embark
upon.  Mrs. Sustainable PF will primarily write about all things eco,
green and sustainable living.

We are very keen to find some readers and to gain feedback on our content, layout – anything!

Very happy to be joining the world of blogging!

Sustainable PF (on behalf of Mrs. Sustainable PF)

At this point we're keeping our place of residence and identities to ourselves.  We keep our financial success to ourselves as we both come from modest upbringings/households.  Parents and siblings don't always re-act well to news of financially independents in their midst.  A personal choice for us, and a hard one – but for now, we keep our identities to ourselves.

 

What I can say is that we live with 100 km of highway 401, but not on it. 

 

DNW – is that Do Not Wait?

 

Thanks for the welcome!  Please check out our site and if you happen to comment i'll check yours out too! (assuming I haven't already, or am not a RSS subscriber already lol!)

Welcome Aboard,

It's good to have more international exposure in the group.  We've got a few Canadian bloggers in the network, so there's a lot of opportunity for collaboration on Canada specific topics, as well as the topics that transcend invisible lines :)  Welcome to the team and we look forward to reading your posts :D

Thanks,
Timothy

Five of our first posts are regarding the $9500+ we saved by importing our Subaru from the U.S.  A different perspective indeed!

Thanks uhnw!

 

As i'm new to this perhaps i'm looking in the wrong spot but my feedburner count is still zero :(

 

I thought I had a subscriber early yesterday but that person has disappeared too.

 

edit: whoops – was looking in the wrong email account!  I have 1 subscriber (and i'm not sure if it's me or not! hehe)

I subscribed too.  Feedburner is wonky so it's hard to get the same count two days in a row.

Thanks Kay Lynn!  The feedburner now tells me I have 2 readers – I guess i'll monitor it to see if that increases!  Is there a way to see who is following you?
