Each Saturday I host guest articles contributed by other bloggers and even non-blogging readers. As of today, I don’t have anybody scheduled for this Saturday or any Saturday after that. If you would be interested in writing an article for Gather Little by Little, please contact me. If you’re a new blogger, this is a great way to make yourself more visible and expose people to your writing. My next open slot is this Saturday!

Hey, where's glblguy?

Hi everyone. I just wanted to write a quick post to let you know I’m still here. I had a two day off site meeting at the “real job” this week and due to some fellow team members being out, I had to work far more than usual. That finished up yesterday, and then last night my whole family except for me, got hit with a really bad stomach virus. I spent the night tending to them and I’m taking a family care day today to care for the kids and my wife who is also down for the count.

Announcing Saltwater Blogger.net

Saltwater Blogger.Net

Blogging is like eating potato chips or Doritos, you can’t write on just one, you have to have at least two or more. Over the past few weeks, I have been secretly working on a new blog about saltwater aquariums. I currently have two articles posted and plan to post one or two a week ongoing. I’ve worked really hard to give the blog an aquarium and aquatic look and feel and really hope I pulled it off. Saltwater Blogger.net will be my outlet for sharing information about the lessons I’ve learned in my little saltwater aquarium adventure.

Hey! I've been interviewed!

Interview

Fellow M-Network member and friend David from My Two Dollars was kind enough to interview me last week, and he published the interview on his blog this morning. The questions he asked were great and really made me think a bit. So make sure you head over and read it. Hopefully you’ll learn a little something more about me!

He’s in the process of interviewing all of the M-Network members, so watch out for more interviews Wednesdays over the next few weeks. He’s already interviewed Patrick and Lynnae, so check those out too!

Sunday Lyrics – Every Time I Breath

Posting this a little late today, as I’ve spent the whole day with my wife and kids. Actually, I spent the whole weekend with them. We took a ride on our cities new light rail system yesterday and then played a game of Pictionary last night. This morning after church, we grabbed some lunch then went to my in-law’s house. We spent some time with them, and rode their four wheeler for a while. I  really hate having to return to work tomorrow. I would so like to be a pro blogger!

Reflecting back on January, it was an incredible month for Gather Little by Little in pretty much every way:.

  • Subscribers rose from 392 to 768
  • Unique visits rose from 14,0001 in December to 26,906 in January
  • Page views rose from 27,583 in December to 51,447 in January
  • My number of comments more than doubled
  • and last but one of things I am most proud of is having an article I wrote featured on Get Rich Slowly as  a guest post!

The book meme – it got me

Playing Tag

The Cynical Christian has tagged me with a book meme (don’t worry, it didn’t hurt and if you aren’t sure what a meme is, this will help). The book meme asks that I do the following:

  1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages).
  2. Open the book to page 123.
  3. Find the fifth sentence.
  4. Post the next three sentences.
  5. Tag five people.

I'm over at Get Rich Slowly

My article How to Stop Fighting With Your Spouse About Money is up at Get Rich Slowly today. Get Rich Slowly was one of the very first personal finance blogs I encountered, and frankly was a significant influence in me starting Gather Little by Little.  So head over and check out my article. Also, welcome Get Rich Slowly readers! If you’ve never been here before, you might want to check out my best articles or maybe even read about me.

If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact me. And if you like what you see here, consider subscribing by RSS or email!

Why you should keep your money in your 401k plan

Dinner with Friends

We had some friends over for dinner the other night. We try to get together with them about once a month. Pretty much every time they come over, Mike either asks me questions about his 401k or brings over some 401k paper work he needs some help with. Mike is a really hard worker who builds patios and decks for a national outdoor room company. He knows a tremendous amount about building houses, rooms, patios, decks, and fixing cars but he knows little to nothing about finances or investing. Mike, his wife and their three girls have been friends of ours for a long time, and I don’t mind helping him out at all.

I would like to start featuring guest articles on Saturdays. If you are interested in being featured as a guest blogger here on Gather Little by Little please contact me and let me know!   I think it would be refreshing for my readers to hear from somebody other than myself everyday. So let me know if you’re interested!
