Debt Blog Fun

I really get into reading blogs, especially good blogs and blogs that talk about things important to me, i.e.: getting out of debt, living simply, and maybe a little decorating on a budget.


Last night, I found the following blog: debtdefier@blogspot.com. If that doesn't work, google "debt defier" and she's first on the list. Going back through her writings, she used to be $30,000 in debt, now has no debt and is saving for grad school. What's great is all the links to freebies that she puts on there as well as the links to other blogs with similar content. She's given herself a 100 Days No Buying Anything (New) challenge and finds creative ways to keep to the challenge.


If you need a little inspiration, check it out!

I like the 100-day challenge. We've basically been doing that ourselves. I'm assuming it does not include necessities such as groceries, medicines and gas type stuff.

Financial blogs I like are:

Wisebread: http://www.wisebread.com/
Strictly financial

Violent Acres: http://www.violentacres.com/
Some financial and loads of straight talk on calling people out on their BS
