Thanks for the mention!
Thanks for the link to the “10 Uncoventional Money Saving Tips” interview. It was kind of you to notice, Mike.
You have demonstrated repeatedly that you have a great attitude. We agree on some investing topics and disagree on others. But you are always warm and polite in your comments both to me and to others. This is a great trait for a blog owner.
