   Hey FWP

   I found your blog from the Fire up the Grill blog carnival.

   I don’t think you’ve gotten on the band wagon too late.

   There are a few people who are doing what you’re doing already, but I think the number of people blogging away debt is still very small all in all. You’re one of the pioneers!

   Would you like to join the Liberta Financial Freedom Support Network? It’s a network of people who are blogging for living debt free and financially free, to provide support, advice and encouragement to each other as they go along.

   Here’s the link: http://liberta.co.za/blog/liberta-financial-freedom-support-network/

   Take care & God bless,
   Francois
