Budgeting Babe in the Wall Street Journal

Posted on March 5, 2005 4 Comments

At first I thought he was joking.

I received an email from what looked like someone in sales talking about a great write up “The Budgeting Babe” received in the Wall Street Journal online. Considering how prestigious a “media hit” we in the public relations industry consider the Journal, I immediately scoffed and prepared to trash the note. But curiousity got the better of me, and after a quick search, I discovered that this site, along with many other excellent personal finance blogs, did indeed receive a great mention in Terri Cullen’s Fiscally Fit column.

Read the article here:

Inside you’ll find information about a lot of the sites linked to this page, from PFBlog to MyMoney Blog to Savvy Saver. Terri interviewed a few authors as well to get the inside perspective on why we blog.

As I’ve mentioned before, saving is much less interesting to talk about than spending. It’s a long, slow process, takes tons of dedication and doesn’t provide much excitement. But Kudos to all the authors mentioned in the article – many who I corresponded with when starting my blog. We’re getting there, slowly but surely, and getting noticed in the process!
