WORDLE: I Was Broke. Now I’m Not. Book

jsangl — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 08:00:11 +0000

There is a new tool I have discovered on the Interwebs called Wordle. You can plug in a bunch of text, and Wordle will produce a word picture for it.

I took the entire text of I Was Broke. Now I’m Not. and plugged it in and Wordle produced the following picture:

Awesome! The words “Money”, “Budget”, “Debt”, “Month”, and “Insurance” all stand out to me.

I am passionate about helping people accomplish far more than they ever thought possible with their personal finances. It is because I firmly believe that when people are financially free, they are much more likely to go do EXACTLY what they have been put on Earth to do! Chances are that you believe the same since you are a reading this blog! I am so blessed to be given the opportunity to speak and teach at so many locations throughout the nation, and it looks like Fall 2010 will be the busiest yet! Below are the scheduled events, and we are nailing down the dates on several more.

I was excited to be able to speak to a class at Tri-County Technical College last week and a class at Westside High School the week before! I used materials from my latest book, What Everyone Should Know About Money Before They Enter The Real World. It is our team’s passion to equip young people with practical tools and training that allows them to maximize their financial potential and avoid making financial mistakes. At Westside, I was also able to talk about the importance of continual learning. It was a joy to be able to speak to such a great group of young people!

Cost: $10

Demand A DEAL!

jsangl — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 01:36:49 +0000

Back when I was B-R-O-K-E, I always paid retail price for nearly everything. It was one of the key reasons we were broke.

Now, I am always looking for a deal because it MAXIMIZES every dollar I earn. Over the past year, I have been blown away by how much money can be saved on groceries by using coupons and matching them with discounted products.

Here are some of my recent shopping trips (I shared these real-time on Twitter):

Publix Bill: $36.15 Paid: $12.95
Bloom Bill: $45.60 Paid: $14.13
Bloom Bill: $60.95 Paid: $17.73
Publix Bill: $29.74 Paid: $8.13
Publix Bill: $35.00 Paid: $11.00

It does take about one extra hour a week to prepare for my shopping trip, but it is WORTH IT! I am using lists from The Grocery Freak, Southern Saver, and Coupon Mom.

Here is an example that I had today at Publix. I bought Blueberry Special K cereal because it was BOGO (buy one, get one free). Publix does not force me to purchase two of the items – it is really 50% off. Instead of $3.99, the product became $1.99. I had a $1 off coupon. That made the box of cereal 75% off – $0.99! You CAN do this! Maximize your money!

Our team (specifically – The Saving Freak) has developed a workshop called the Saving Freak Workshop that we are taking throughout the nation over the next year. It shows people how to save money on nearly everything they buy. If you are interested in having this class at your business, community center, chamber of commerce, or church – CONTACT our team HERE. There are several spots still available in the next month and a half!

FYI – We are hosting our own event in Mooresville, NC on 11/23/2009 at 6:30PM.
