Here's today's quote from a satisfied You Need a Budget user:
"Thanks very much, and thanks for a wonderful site, amazing advice and a truly awesome program." - David
I am giving away a copy of You Need a Budget every day here at Free Money Finance from December 15 to December 31. Here's how it will work:
- I'll post every day announcing the contest for that day.
- All you'll need to do to enter that day's drawing will be to leave any comment on that post.
- Sometime on Monday, I'll select a winner at random and announce with a new post that a winner has been selected. (NOTE: I won't name any winners this weekend, but will name the Friday, Saturday, and Sunday winners on Monday.)
- It will be the winner's responsibility to email me their contact information.
- I'll then send the winner's information to the You Need a Budget people and they'll work out getting the prize delivered.
A few rules for these giveaways:
1. You can not win more than one prize.
2. I will be the complete and final judge.
3. Legal disclaimer: I can not guarantee safe delivery of the items. I've worked with the YNAB people before and they're great, so I'm sure it will all work out smoothly. That said, I won't be held accountable if there's a mess up.
4. If you win something and do not contact me within a week of winning, I reserve the right to give your prize away to another winner. I won't track down the winners -- it's your responsibility to come back and see if you won.
5. Local laws, rules, and regulations apply.
Good luck! Post a comment below for your chance to win!




Thanks for this great offer. I am not giving up!!

Interesting program, does this work with keeping track of our rental property, which is what seems to eat up the greatest part of our money?
