Hi Ileane,

I used to do some trading in both stocks and currency so your guest post might be up my alley.

Hey Samantha, my guest post entry for the personal finance contest didn’t include any mentions of credit cards because it just didn’t make sense with the topic I discussed. But I could have earned 10 bonus points if I would have mentioned them. I’m hoping the support of my friends by sharing the post on social networks will easily make up for the 10 points (fingers crossed).
This is really cool, Ileane!
I truly wish you the best on this and I have a feeling that you will do quite well with the blogging community behind you. We’ll be promoting and pulling for you big-time!
Heading over now to read the post.

Hi Peter J, thanks for the visit and the comment. I found you over on Quora and followed you there. Let me know what you think of it.
Ileane – I can imagine how you could feel out of your comfort zone because this was probably your first time writing about personal finance. I read the guest post you did and I thought you did a great job and I hope you win this contest. I Digged and Mixxed it, and I also shared it on Facebook. Good luck to you Ileane.

Hi John, the personal finance guest post was a story that I wanted to write for a few months but I had no idea where I was going to publish it. I thought about creating a new Hub Page focused on insurance, wills and probate but most of my current Hubs cover blogging and social media tips.
Thanks for supporting the contest with your votes, they go a long way!
Nice contest for bloggers.

Mark, right now this personal finance contest has been keeping me busy. But I’m sure you’ve have heard that Blog Engage is running a year long contest and CommentLuv, FamousBloggers and IblogZone are conducting another. Those will keep me busy too, I’m sure!
Thanks for your support in the Credit Cards Canada contest Mark!
Hey Ileane,
You wrote a great and emotional article. I hope you will be in good standing at the end of the contest!

Alex, the contest is still going and any tweets, comments, Facebook likes etc. are very much appreciated. Thanks for asking.
I am very happy about this contest. It was quite surprise for me to write down about personal finance. I hope it was all for the first time.
Having a credit card is actually very necessary. But today, it looks like it’s more motivating to join the guest posting due to the prize!
I’m really glad that I discovered your blog, very helpful for a newbie like me!@bose

Jennifer, I prefer that you use my contact form to get in touch. Also, the instructions and requirements for guest posting are found at the bottom of this post.
How did you do in this contest?
It would’ve been a cool prize if they would pay of credit card debt (if you have any).
Would be fitting. But then again, I doubt any blogger giving advise about personal finance will have a big credit card debt… But you never know.
