Welcome Your Finances Simplified!

 

I am from a dairy farm about 40 minutes outside of Philadelphia (with all the Amish…No, I am not Amish:)). Good luck!

Hi Debt Princess! It was nice meeting you at the conference. I'm glad you came here again, and the best of luck with this challenge–it will truly take your blog to the next level if you are committed.

Hey, hey, hey all!

 

My name is Kamara and I recently started my blog called The Modern Financial, found here:  http://www.themodernfinancial.com  I'm a Certified Financial Planner by day, blogger by night.  I decided it was time to start the blog as a way to put a fun and 'modern' spin on the often old and dry theories of financial planning.  My blog attempts to take a holistic approach to giving financial advice.

 

Originally I hail from Vancouver, BC, but recently relocated to Toronto.

 

I joined the Yakezie Challenge last night and announced it this morning on Twitter, where I already received such a warm welcome!! Laugh

 

I'm so happy to have joined this network, and kudos to you, Financial Samurai for starting this brilliant concept.

 

Looking forward to working with you all!

 

Warm wishes from Canada,

 

Kamara

Welcome Kamara,

 

Your site looks good. I couldn't find your yakezie post to leave a comment… (but maybe it was just me). There are great people to ask for help. I know from personal experience. I started about a month and a half ago and everyone has been really welcoming. If you need anything, shoot me an email. If I don't know, I can probably direct you to someone that does.

Enjoy the Yakezie effect.

Corey

Hi all, sorry I didn't find this thread earlier.  I posted my intentions in the Help Forum, but it looks like this is the right place to do it (thanks LaTisha).

I'm having my site join the challenge.  My initiation post will roll Monday to maximize traffic so I wanted to make sure I had everything else in order before I jump in the pool… so I'll quote myself:

"So, now that I've added my site to the spreadsheet, contacted Sam,
declared my intentions openly on this forum, and scheduled my
announcement for Monday (heaviest traffic day, of course!), what should
my next step be?"

Also, alexa Rank varies between 2 and 3 million.  Today is 2,681,237 so I think that's the right number to set the benchmark.

20sfinance:  Sorry about that!  Turns out I had my Yakezie post on a timer to post this morning to coincide with my usual Friday post which I have dubbed "Frugal Fridays".  It's there now and would love to hear your feedback!  My blog is now 2 1/2 weeks old and I'd like to revamp the look and somehow start generating revenue off the thing (Adsense has not resulted in anything).

 

It's Canadian Thanksgiving this weekend!  Have a great weekend and talk soon!

Thanks everyone!  I'm really thrilled to be part of this group!
