Thanks for the free Personal Finance for Dummies book!

Just a quick thanks to Chad from 22Dollars.com for the gift of Personal Finance for Dummies.

Chad held a contest on his site last week, and I was lucky enough to be the one selected from the comment list to win the book. He shipped it directly from Amazon.com and it arrived in just 2-3 days!

Hey, why don’t you all take a stroll over to 22Dollars.com and see the site. Chad has some creative graphics and a site design quite different in style than most other personal finance sites.

Thanks Chad!
