Happy Family Day Weekend! What the heck is “Family Day” you ask? Well, if you’re from Alberta you’re well acquainted with the made up government holiday that helps you get from New Year’s through to April. BC finally caught on, so this is the first year we’re enjoying the extra long weekend too. Unfortunately, I caught some mild form of the flu, so it’s going to be a pretty low key weekend for me. This is the second time I’ve been sick in 2013 – I’m not sure which I prefer; getting really sick once or getting kinda sick multiple times.
This week, The Outlier Model was pleased to be nominated as a Top Personal Finance Blog of 2012. Thanks to whomever nominated us and to One Smart Dollar and Ready for Zero for hosting the competition. Head over and vote for us – if we win, we’ll get $100 to give away to one of our lucky readers!
