Moolanomy Is Becoming A Multi-Author Blog

By Pinyo, on September 19, 2009

Just over two years ago, I started a personal finance blog called Moolanomy. Over the years, I poured my heart and soul into it, and it became the key to my life dreams. I have many dreams and amongst them: working full-time on web sites and moving my family to Northern Virginia. It so happened these dreams came true recently.

In a few days, I’ll be moving down to Virginia and start my new career at WebFinance Inc. Here’s a blurb from the company’s about page:

WebFinance Inc. is a financial Internet company which designs, builds, and nurtures business opportunities where technology and finance intersect. WebFinance Inc. is the parent company of a thriving family of financial websites whose sole goal is to help individuals with their finances and investments. Through our individual services — BusinessDictionary, InvestorWords, and InvestorGuide — WebFinance Inc. provides investors with the tools and knowledge to make better investment decisions.

I will be joining the team and help them improve and grow three web sites. And like Moolanomy, I intend to pour my heart and soul into this new venture.

Write for Moolanomy and Make Money!

So this is where the multi-author part comes in. Instead of trying to do two things at once, I’ve asked a few financial bloggers to help me out. Over the next few weeks, you’ll start seeing articles from a multitude of authors — and I think it will be great. I have a handful of people lined up now, but I am still looking for more writers, if you are interested in showcasing your work on Moolanomy and earn some money, here is more information about becoming a staff writer.

Weekly Highlights

Now that the big announcement is out of the way, I’d like to share with you a few good articles discovered over the week.
