    I’m a writer and editor at SmartMoney.com. I came across your blog while doing some research and thought you might be able to help with an article. We’re running a “Debt Management” package next month, and I’m writing about couples and their debt secrets.

    I’m interested in talking to people who are, or have ever been, in a situation where they’ve been at odds with their spouse or significant other about money — attitudes toward money, and specifically, debt, and ways of managing money and debt. For example, shopaholic Wife tries to hide her expensive shoe purchases from thrifty Husband. Or a man lies to his fiance about how much debt (credit-card debt, student-loan debt, etc.) he has — or at least fails to mention it for some time. You get the idea – broadly speaking, the issue of debt compatibility.

    Do you think you would be a good fit for the story (or do you know anyone who would be)? I’d love to chat, so let me know.
    Thanks, Lisa

    Lisa,

    Thanks for stopping by. I’d love to talk with you some time about your article, although I’m not sure we would fall under the category of having debt “secrets”.

    We, my husband and I, were in a unique and not-so-unique situation in regards to debt. To make a long story short, we were the typical college grads with student loan debt. Add to that some credit card and medical debt pretty early in our marriage. After a business loss and birth of our first child we felt it was time that the both of us tackle the debt beast once and for all.

    Within a matter of six months, we had paid off $15,000 in debt and purchased our first home. We still have some debt, but, we have the financial know-how to get rid of it within the next year and look forward to building a nest egg.

    If you’re still interested, give me a shout. You know where to find me.

    Hello,

    My name is Marc Brown. I am a financial writer as well as a skilled coupon clipper, a Dad, and the frugal gatekeeper of my household. I am trying to build up my portfolio and would love to post as a guest on your site. Bankruptcy, Debt Settlement, personal finance, and managing the household budget have always come naturally to me and it’s something I really enjoy writing about. I would be glad to come up with something unique and interesting to contribute to your site or write about any ideas you may have for a guest post.

    Should you publish my post, I’ll be happy with a simple attribution with my name and the blog I co-author. Let me know what you think and what topics you are looking for that you haven’t already covered or I can just come up with something unique that hasn’t been done yet.

    I look forward to hear from you.

    Thanks so much!

    Marc Brown
