Extra Income

The publisher at my newspaper asked me to write a frugal-minded column to appear bi-monthly. With two editions under my belt, it's becoming easier each time to churn out something worthwhile. I've solicited submissions from the community, which assists with content, and gauges interest.
Across the layoff landscape, the feeling of indispensable-ness is nice to hold. Perhaps if downsizing where eminent, they would have not offered me this opportunity.

This column, in addition to the Obama paycheck bump and my pithy annual raise will bring in an additional $150 per month!
