For the first time in a long time, I submitted a post to a carnival. It was the first post I’ve written in a long time that I thought was anywhere near worthy of being in a carnival, Birthday Money Pays Off. Canadian Personal Finance hosted the Carnival of Personal Finance today, and may not have seen eye to eye with me on that second sentence. Ah well, to each his own, I’m just glad I was included. I particularly liked how he said it was a stretch on being advice, and is more of a story – uh, yeah. I don’t write advice here. I’m in no position to give anyone else advice. I write stories. 
This is a blog about me and what I’m doing, not about what I think you should be doing, and I for one don’t care to see the same old information rehashed over and over and over again all over the PF blogosphere. Gets boring. I want to know what people are actually doing with their money troubles, and how it’s working for them. I want to follow people’s stories. I don’t want to be reading the same thing on 20 different blogs.
That’s me.
P.S. I don’t like to toot my own horn, but I’m always interested and amazed to see what draws people to my corner of the web. My “Charged and Sued” post has drawn more visitors than any other post from pfblogs.org (50), made it on to their Twitter feed. .
