Extreme Savers Wanted

[jeffrey]

Money Magazine is looking for "extreme savers" to profile in their magazine. The word extreme is relative here - since most people don't save, any saving that goes beyond putting money in a bank account looks like it could qualify. Would love to see some of you in the forums here appear to teach others quality ways to save.

You can see that extreme is a relative work from <a href="http://money.cnn.com/2006/05/02/pf/extreme_savers/index.htm">this article</a> - under the photos there is a button "Are you and extreme saver - tell us your story"

I encourage one and all to do so. I'd love to see some of you in print!

Hi jeffrey
It made great reading as I followed all the links to get or see any new tips on save gas. Sorry, I can't be a candidate for 'extreme saver' I live in the wrong part of the world.

I saw this some time ago, and while tempting, participating means losing all anonymity, which i'm reluctant to do.

Good gravy. I'd think I was a candidate, spending less than a third of my gross, and less than half my net. I'll ponder; Fern has a point with the anonymity.

You immediately came to mind when I first read this post. I agree about the anonymity, but you would be a great candidate!

The loss of anonymous posting would be lost. I am not an extreme saver myself.

we are spending our money on 3 properties, right now... but, we do budget carefully... anyway, they need to do an opposite of savers... say extreme spenders... i can see myself in both positions, right now.. lol.

I am not an extreme saver either. I like to buy property and I like nice cars!
