Top 100 List and Front Page on Asscoiated Content

Would you believe that I made the list of the 100 Most Inspirational Personal Finance Turnaround Stories? The list can be found over at Credit Card Lowdown, and I am #56. (Only #56? Well, I suppose there has to be someone more inspirational than I....)

Join Associated ContentIn other good news, I had an article make the front page of Associated Content for the first time a couple of days ago. Front page articles can get many thousands of page views, which adds up to thirty or thirty five dollars or so in page view bonus payments. Not too shabby for twenty minutes of my time writing the article. The article, on the difference between sin and hypocrisy in the church, can be found here: The Difference Between Hypocrisy and Sin in the Church. It is nice to finally be getting some exposure as a writer. Maybe I will succeed in becoming a freelance writer after all.

In even more good news, completely unrelated to personal finance (except for the associated costs), my wife and I are going to see "The Police" live in concert tonight for their reunion tour up at the Coliseum in Oakland. The tickets cost $150 and are basically nosebleed seats; but seeing The Police in concert is a once in a lifetime opportunity not to be missed. Full report is forthcoming on my Associated Content page after the concert.

Hey I just read your Associated Content story on prolonging the life of razor blades. It's something I've been interested in, too, and I thought I'd share another tip: oil. I put a little saucer of vegetable oil near the sink and when I'm done shaving, I just put the blade in the oil. It's great at preventing rust.

Another thing... just as important as the blade you're using at the time are the blades that you're NOT using. When you open the pack of blades, storing them in the bathroom makes them begin rusting immediately (especially if you shower in the same bathroom... all that steam). So I've started keeping my opened blade packages in a dry cabinet in my kitchen. When I get a new blade to use they're in pristine condition!

Anyway... I never heard of Associated Content before your blog, and it's pretty cool! Thanks
