Blog Obsessed

I have been reading personal finance blogs for going on three years. I love them; and when I find one I really love, I go back through their archives and read from their first post all the way to their most current post, and then of course, I follow them religiously!

About the time I started reading PF blogs, I started keeping my own financial journal. And for the last year, I've really considered starting my own PF blog. Well, I finally did it.  This blog is for me.  I don't plan to monetize it. I don't want to guest post. I'm not trying to become a freelance writer. I just want to participate in this medium and community I've fallen in love with.

I am PF blog obsessed!  I've also become obsessed with my new blog.  I don't know if the novelty is going to wear off or if I'm going to get sick of writing about this at some point. All I do know is that I love it right now and I think about it all the time! I have a notepad on my desk that I have jotted down notes on with posts I want to write. I keep a note on my phone where I jot ideas when I'm not home. When I go running, I think of post ideas. I'm having so much fun writing drafts, editing them, and figuring out what order I want to publish them in.

Long before I started my little ole' blog I was reading blogs. I started with blogs about getting out of debt (which are still my favorite) and then I branched out into other types of personal finance blogs.
Here is a list of some of my favorites with the link to their blog and why I love them.

Cait Flanders - when I started reading her blog, it was called Blonde on a Budget and it started out as a get out of debt blog. It has turned into so much more and is really more of a lifestyle blog now.

Disease Called Debt - I love her story and how honest she is!

Friday Night Shenanigans - She has a lot of debt to overcome but she's making a plan and putting in work.

Give Me Back My Five Bucks - Krystal hustled her way out of debt and has been debt free for years now! She doesn't post as often as she used to but it's still always a good read!

Mama Hustle - I just recently started reading and following her blog but I enjoy it and her writing style!

Six Figures Under - This is the MOST inspiring blog! She and her family hustled their way out of over $100,000 in debt in less than 3 years! What? And all along the way she stayed positive and faithful!

I promise, if you start reading some of these blogs, you'll become obsessed too!
