Hello there, I'm Jordan. I have been reading Wise Bread in my RSS reader for a while, and just now decided to join the forum. I'm a college student who is so far not in debt. It takes some frugal maneuvering, but that's part of the fun. Pretty soon I will be out of college and thrusted into the real world. I want to take with me a frugal attitude and not be tempted by my new found money to spend it all.

HI, thought I'd intro myself. I've been reading Wise bread for a while but just today got the notion to finally join the forums. I like sunsets, long walks on the beach, and kittens. Oooops, wrong forum!

I'm a frugal mom living on a tight budget so I love finding ways to stretch it all a little more. I've also started a blog on making small changes to improve your life at 1 Little Thing

Hi, I'm Adam. I just got out of the navy and am working on starting a real estate investing business with my dad. Things are going pretty well, but there is so much to learn. I also dabble a bit in web design and would like to start a web design company some day as well.

Hi everyone! I'm Lucy & I've just discovered Wise Bread & love it. I can relate to feeling old in here, but I'm sticking around anyway.

I'm a 40-something, newly married, new stepmom to 2 little kids, college faculty member trying to re-define myself looking to contribute to this online world we live in. Nature-lover, animal-lover, bargain-hunter. I've been the starving student & still find myself "living like a college student" sometimes. Extending my frugal ways into adulthood helps keep more money in the bank & keeps life comfortable even though the need to do it isn't as great now.

Glad to be here & look forward to learning & sharing with you all!

Hi, everyone, my name is Aubrey and I'm from California. I grew up in several places, but mostly in Hawaii where I lived for 16 years. My sister and I moved to CA in 2003 and we started our own business making and selling clothing and costumes for dogs and horses in 2005. We also recently started a Cafepress shop in December 2007.

My hobbies are reading (I recently finished the Harry Potter series - we got the book on release day but I saved it till Christmas Day to start reading because I wasn't ready for it all to end, and I read Book 7 twice in a row. We rarely buy books, preferring to borrow from the library, but we collect Harry Potter books of various editions and languages.), watching period films like Pride and Prejudice, North and South, Emma, etc., German/Euro strategy board games, playing the piano, and learning to play the violin.

Nice to meet you all.

Hi!
I just discovered Wise Bread today and am looking forward to getting to chat with some of you WHILE learning some money-saving tips along the way. This should come in handy considering many members are poker experts and I would definitely lose money!
I'm a period film fanatic, quickly becoming addicted to the internet...off to the store to buy Poker for Dummies and How to Overcome Your Addiction....hee hee...
