Also, if applicable, I will give a brief description of the stage of the Tour de France that took place the same day as (or that has happened since the previous Stage of) the competition.
HOW TO VOTE
You can vote for the one article (one from the one intermediate sprint in the case of today’s Stage) you’d like to see proceed in the Tour by commenting in the comments section below and telling which is your favorite. In today’s Stage, we have a three way sprint, instead of the normal two-way sprint, so be sure to note that difference.
I’ve listed a keyword after each post title to make it easy to vote (as a made-up example, you can just comment: Sprint 1: Mutual, etc.) Be sure to comment which one you like the best out of the set of three! Criteria for the best article is completely up to you, but you can use these factors as a guide: 1) post of your favorite blogger, 2) most interesting post, 3) most thought-provoking post, 4) most unique post, or 5) most actionable post.
Here are today’s competitions:
Voting will continue until July 17th for this Stage!
INTERMEDIATE SPRINT # 1
-
Money For All Seasons I: Income, Spending, and Age (Seasons): Using the four seasons – spring, summer, autumn and winter – as a metaphor for the four different stages in our lives, I have set out some age related expectations regarding income, expenditure, investments and cash-flow. It is a common sense way to illustrate how our financial situation today carries into our future and that it is never late to change one’s financial trajectory.
- What If You Find Out Your Co-Workers Are Making More Money Than You (Co-workers): A discussion with some co-workers led me to discovering that I was underpaid for doing the same job. I handled the situation by doing my research, building a game plan, and confronting my boss. This is the story of how it all went down.
- How I Save $828 Dollars A Year On My Phone Bill (Phone): As an addict to savings, my phone bill was an obvious place to do some digging. What I found was a lot of extra money in my pocket, and that good things get better. These are 4 of the biggest Moola Savings Tips to save on that ugly phone bill.
