This is going to be a little bit of this and that, all mixed up into one post. Mostly, it’s an update on some of the money-related things going on in my life.

And I want to hear from you too, so if you have a minute drop a little update of your own in the comments.

First, I’m super excited to say that I’m a guest on the latest PT Money podcast episode talking about my Pay Off Debt app. (It’s my first podcast, so be gentle.)  But it was a lot of fun to talk with Philip on his podcast. You can listen to the episode here or subscribe to the PT Money podcast in iTunes to hear how other folks are making money on the side.

Second, I’ve been secretly working on (among other things) an ebook on beginning blogging that is finally at the “yes I can see that this really IS going to get completed” stage. So that’s promising. It should be useful to folks who are interested in blogging but who don’t know where to start.  And it will probably be either free or very low cost.

What’s your philosophy on ebooks?  I’m never sure on pricing because I think folks tend to value things more when they have to pay something, but on the other hand I also like providing free info.

Third, I’ve met a miniature goal of mine. I’ve actually made it THREE WHOLE DAYS without receipts and paperwork escaping their single pile or toppling over.  In fact, about 97% of them have even made it into Quicken and then the spreadsheet.
