Hello. I’d like to take a moment to explain who I am, and what this ‘project’ is about.
This blog used to be a space for me to rant about random news and cultural events, politics, and other stuff. I felt, although I enjoyed doing that, it had no direct purpose or direction. It didn’t do anything constructive in a broad sense. So, I’ve decided to change format and content, and go into a new area.
My name is Chris. I’m 40 this year (2012). I have held several jobs, both home-based and in the retail world. I am by no means a banker or financial analyst. I’ve never managed a Fortune 500 company. But I have a generally good head on my shoulders, and feel I have some good advice and observations which might help someone out.
Helping someone out is my goal with this blog. It is my intention to provide basic financial and debt advice, work from home tips, and ideas for both making money and saving money. Again, I am by no means an expert in the field of finance. But I have some insights into how people can beat debt and get their lives back focused and on track.

What’s in it for me?
A warm, fuzzy feeling inside. Also, I hope that if you like what I’m doing here, you’ll submit added information in the form of comments. As long as you’re respectful of others, and comments are at least marginally related to the purpose of this blog, I will absolutely approve any comments. Let’s try and keep politics out of it, though. We get enough of that on our TV and news feeds.
Also, I will not lie to you. I do have a referral system for some paid survey sites I use. If you’re interested in helping me out a bit, since I’m helping you out a bit, please ask me about that. No pressure. Again, no lies. I will not recommend a website that isn’t 100% legit, and I will not ask for some sort of subscription or for you to buy my book. I have no book. I have no subscription service. I’ll be delving more into this subject in the coming days. Stay tuned.
