Hi there, happy Thanksgiving !! Remember it is not too late to enter the $100 giveaway that I am co-hosting, all the details are here.
If you would like some reading for the holiday please check out my guest post on Budget and the Beach about how to fund a nomadic lifestyle!
I had this post all lined up for today about debt, and interest rates, and repayments and other financial stuff when I realized that it was Thanksgiving for you guys, and everyone would be busy bonding with their loved ones and eating turkey, or planning an optimizing strategy for Black Friday, so I won’t bore you with money details today. Instead, I just want to say THANK YOU.
THANK YOU, for reading my post today
THANK YOU, for coming back to my site and reading some more, day after day
THANK YOU, for seeing through my broken English and appreciating my writing anyway
THANK YOU, for leaving your comments and feedback regularly
THANK YOU, all my new blogging friends who have made blogging so interesting for the past few months.
THANK YOU for your advice
THANK YOU for letting me guest post on your blogs
THANK YOU for writing amazing articles for mine
THANK YOU for following me on Twitter

THANK YOU for promoting my articles on Twitter and FB
THANK YOU for featuring my posts in PF carnivals
THANK YOU for linking back to my posts on your weekly updates
THANK YOU for all the link love on your sites
THANK YOU for helping me break 150K on Alexa

And THANK YOU, Mr President, because you have brought more traffic on the day you were re elected than this blog had ever seen. My article Obama-ize your life, a valuable lesson in time management apparently is ranking quite high in the search engines, and on November 7th, I had a big flow of visitors thanks to your new old president.
Have a very happy Thanksgiving, and once again, I can’t be thankful enough for all your support since I started this blog.

Thank you for sharing your experience moving to Guatalama with us. It’s nice to take the break from finance once in awhile to give thanks :0) Great job on your article getting record hits. Twitter also had heavy traffic that day. In fact the whole internet probably saw a boost in activity during the election lol. Good guy new old president is helping bloggers everywhere 😀

Glen @ Monster Piggy Bank says
Cool idea for a post Pauline. The first time I read through I didn’t realise each of the thank you lines had multiple links.
Nice work getting to PR3. I’m stuck on 2 🙁
Pauline P says
Thank you! Yep, lots of people to thank 🙂 I have no idea how PR works really and other blogs much better than mine are stuck on 3 or even 2, so don’t sweat it too much.
Catherine says
Wow that’s a whole lot of linking! You’re too sweet! Thank you for everything you share with us 🙂
Pauline P says
Yes, not very Google friendly but I had lots of people to thank! It looks like those FB pics with 200 people tagged…
