How To Manage Money Tips has joined the Yakezie Challenge!

I can’t tell you how excited we are, to be a part of this challenge. We feel it will play a great motivating role in our personal development, as well as the development of the service and tips on budgeting we offer to you, our loyal readers.

The Yakezie Challenge was started by Financial Samurai to create a motivated group of personal finance bloggers and help them network in a very inclusive environment.

The challenge is quite simple. To achieve a top 200,000 Alexa ranking within 6 months if not already there, or to improve the rank already attained.

There’s a saying that your results in life will be the average of the 6 people you associate with the most, or something to that effect, depending on the source.

One of the great things about the challenge, is that there are a number of wonderful personal finance blogs that we already read on a regular basis. The challenge is another reminder to continue to build strong relationships with the best of them, so we can improve how we meet the needs of you, our readers. Read the rest of this entry
