Thanks Steven! I’m honored to have you reading along! Thanks again for your comments on the picture. I did truly wrestle with that pic, so thanks!

Yes, I have clicked over to your site but I haven’t yet spent a lot of time. I do want to do that because I’ve enjoyed what I’ve seen in my short visits. I promise I’ll be spending more time and adding some comments as well!

I greatly appreciate your support and encouragement! It sounds like you’re still carving out your online identity as well. so you know what I mean when I say how rewarding it is to connect with someone via articles and comments. So, again, thanks!

Looking forward to your comments are future articles!
Dave

Hi Dave!

Your site is really great. Like I said in my comment above, it really burns the idea into your mind how deteriorating debt can be to a person. Keep up the good work and I hope you have a chance to check out my blog http://www.hundredgoals.com I am on the same path as a lot of other personal finance bloggers and am trying to get my story out there to the masses.

Hope to hear from you soon, but in the meantime, don’t be afraid to take risks (such as your choice of imagery). Doing it this time has earned you another reader!

Steven

Yes… once we start to tune into it… it really does mock us!

Thanks Steven! To be honest, I found that pic a while ago when I was first sketching out the article and thought it was a great match. But I allowed myself to select another pic because of the strong imagery of the original. Then earlier this week as I was preparing and scheduling the article I couldn’t escape the imagary and its correlation to the article’s message – I really wanted that strong imagary – so I went back and changed it.

It is, therefore, quite satisfying to have you comment so specifically on the image given my internal struggle during the process.

Thanks!
Dave

Holy moly! Powerful picture to associate with your article! That is a pretty brave thing to do and I commend you for doing so! It really draws a connection to how self-destructive debt can be. The picture really helps to burn that into a person’s mind. Kudos for choosing that pic.

Man, debt really does make me feel like this! It just feels like such a burden. I can smell it, heck I can hear it laughing at me at times! Maybe that's just the voices in my head, though. Who knows? Baker @ ManVsDebt’s last blog post..Dave Ramsey’s Town Hall For Hope Review
