If you were to write anonymously what would your pen name be?
Whatever name you would choose, there’s no way it would be cooler than the blogger we get to interview for latest podcast.
J. Money from BudgetsAreSexy.com is by far one of the hippest bloggers that I’ve ever met.
If you read one of his blog posts, you’ll get an immediate sense in how much fun this guy is.
J. was laid off from his job a few years ago and he used that opportunity to focus on his online empire full-time.
He’s proud to say he’s never looked back.
This is part of 1 of 2 of the interview. Be sure to check out Part 2 here.
