So two weeks ago, I announced I was looking for contributing bloggers and that I *gasp* got a real job. That said, I am pleased to introduce Money Under 30’s three new contributing bloggers. Simon, Carrie, and Stan will each be writing one post a week for the site.

About the Contributors

Simon, a 22-year old recent college grad, is a full-time editorial staff member at MyBankTracker and maintains his own personal finance blog, the Realm of Prosperity. Simon will be writing on a variety of personal finance topics from credit cards tips and tricks to saving money when you shop online.

Carrie hails from Kansas City, Mo., and is also an established personal finance blogger at her site Carrie…on the Cheap. In addition to bringing her personal experiences crushing debt and beginning to build net worth by age 26, Carrie is also in the final throws of studying for the CPA exam. She will be contributing great debt-reduction strategies, money-saving ideas, and oh-so-helpful tax tips!

Stan is new to blogging, but brings an impressive passion for investing. Before he even graduated from college, Y.S. was running his own investment fund for family and friends. He now works for a New York brokerage company and will be writing market commentary and how-to guides for young investors.

Look for their new posts next week! [...]

That’s $700 billion divided by approximately 138 million U.S. taxpayers. That would sure put the year’s previous stimulus tax rebate to shame. (Remember that? Guess it didn’t work.) Just sayin’.
