Money Madness: Final Four Time!
The Elite Eight is now history, and the FreeMoneyFinance tournament has entered the Final Four. I’m pleased to report that FiveCentNickel and Raising4Boys both fared well in the last round, posting a 2-1 record with Raising4Boys beating FiveCentNickel for the single loss.
Here are the full results:
Ten Simple Ways to Cover Your Ass(ets)
defeated
Getting Rid Of Your Debt Without Worrying About The Latte Factor
Teaching Kids the Value of a Dollar
defeated (crushed, actually)
Dave Ramsey is Bad at Math
As an aside, the Final Four features yet another Death Match between myself and NCN of NoCreditNeeded. As it turns out, NCN has expressed a desire to crush me beneath his boot (his words, not mine). I would, of course, prefer to avoid that if at all possible, so…
I’d like to encourage you to drop by the Final Four post and, assuming that you like them, please vote for Ten Simple Ways to Cover Your Ass(ets) and/or Teaching Kids the Value of a Dollar. Thanks!

On a serious note, I think that both of your articles are great. Keep up the great blogging.
