Dear Beta Challengers (Joined between July through October, 2010),
Stay tuned for the Beta Class sign-up page link which will be posted on Feb 2, 2011. For those who joined in November/December and who've broken 200,000 and have gotten to know lots of Members and Challengers already, you can sign up, but it is still a 6 month period so please please put in the date after the 6 months is over.
Cheers, Sam
Hi Sam,
We fall into the Nov/Dec folks who have broken 200,000.
What do you mean by "t is still a 6 month period so please please put in the date after the 6 months is over."? What is "put in the date after … " mean?
Thanks!

Hey Guys,
I've decided to try out your challenge! CentsToShare is currently sitting at 363,077, so my goal is drop down below 181k within the 6 months.
As far as my goals with the site, I'm kinda looking at it as a chronicle of my financial life. Being able to look back on posts I made 20 or 30 years in the past and seeing how I've grown seems like an intriguing concept for me.

Hello all! Financial Success for Young Adults has just joined the challenge. I guess that makes us part of the Gamma class. Right now our rank is 11, 650, 860 so we've got a long ways to go before 200,000. I'm looking forward to meeting fellow challengers, I've already bookmarked some great sites.
On the site I talk about how to invest in stocks, bonds, futures, options and forex. Each article is geared toward a reader with little to no knowledge of the markets so really anyone can join us. I also talk about money management, trading, budgets and saving money.

I just posted this in another thread: http://yakezie.com/forums/yake…..ain#p13036 But I figured that I should add it here as well!
Ok, so I just started a new website and I have decided to enter it into the Yakezie challenge. I still have to set up a few categories and find a few widgets for tracking my goals, but it's pretty much ready to go.
My new site is: http://fatguyskinnywallet.com
Basically, I am challenging myself to lose 100lbs, and to stop eating out (for the most part)! I am also trying to pay off over $100,000 in debt. So this site will track my progress with both of these goals. The content will be weight loss/fitness, personal finance, and Christian thoughts.
I hope everyone will help me find my way around the forums and make me feel welcome !
Oh, because I know that you are dying to connect with my new site in so many ways…
Here are my RSS Feed, Twitter, and Facebook links. I need 15 more Facebook likes so I can set a proper URL.

Bogey,
You have found the right place. I think everyone is at various levels. There are some really bright folks in this network who share all the goods – all you have to do is ask. I found it to be most helpful indeed. Love the site name. Too cute!

I have too! There are some great new sites in this challenge. Welcome, Welcome. I'm making my way around to everyone…& yes let Crystal know if you need any help ;)
Seriously, I help where I can – but Crystal's probably best. Have you seen the number of forum posts she has?????
Have a great day everyone!

Hey all,
Don't know exactly when I joined the challenge. It may sound strange, but allow me to explain. I installed the Alexa bar around Mid-December, when the Alexa score was about 1,100,000. I started tracking it then, it's now 205,307. I *just today* figured out how to post the Yakezie emblem on my site (don't snicker). So I guess that since I'm close to 200,000, the challenge is get to below 100,000 within 6 months.

Hi all,
I am officially joining today, though my blog has been running for 1 month.
My Alexa rank is a mighty 18,849,240. So I have a lot of work to do.
http://www.positivebrother.blogspot.com (www.positivebrother.com) is where I blog. My focus is on doing well in life. Finance and money therefore is a topic I will be covering a lot but my experience here is lacking so I am reading as much as I can on the subject before I delve too much into it. I am also training to qualify as a certified/chartered accountant so should have some good insights to share.
When I started my blog, I committed to it for a year and to post once a week, so I am not sure if I will graduate at Yakezie, but I thought I would join the community anyway.
I have the drive and to put it plainly, want to make a lot of money. Six figures all the way to seven figures!
May be I will achieve it, may be I won't, but I will get wealthy, or die trying!
I hope to connect with some cool people here so will be up and about :)

Welcome! I am just like you…I joined the Yakezie community even though I only get 1-2 posts out a week.
