Giveway Banner

It’s a time for giving thanks, and I am very grateful for all you awesome readers of this blog. Honestly, this blog has helped me keep on track and it was really fun along the way. I started blogging in December 2004, revealing our net worth of $55,750. As you can see on your top right of the screen, two years later we have doubled that! What better way to celebrate this success than to give away a bunch of stuff! 😉

Prizes

Much of this stuff is books I’ve received from publishers for review, and others are books that I feel are top-notch and am buying myself. If you add up the retail values for everything, it’s over $400 in free prizes. Don’t worry, I’m not sending out any 1099s.

Omni Bean Bag Chair (New) from SumoLounge.com, a $149 value.
Smart Money Magazine, 1-Year Subscription   Car and Driver Magazine, 1-Year Subscription
The Richest Man in Babylon, 1 copy (review) A Random Walk Down Wall Street, 1 copy (review)
The Four Pillars of Investing, 1 copy (review) The Automatic Millionaire Homeowner, 1 copy (upcoming review)
The Bogleheads Guide to Investing, 1 copy (partial review, upcoming complete review) The Big Money, 2 copies (review)
Health Care on Less Than You Think: The New York Times Guide, 1 copy (upcoming review) The Money Coach’s Guide to Your First Million, 1 copy (upcoming review)
Index Funds: The 12-Step Program for Active Investors, 1 copy (review) $20 Amazon Gift Certificate to buy the book (or whatever) of your choice!
Possibly more to be added as the contest goes on…

I am going to randomly split all the prizes into two equal buckets for the following two entry methods, both free. So, in order to have a chance at any specific prize, you’ll have to do both.

#1 – Leave A Comment
This one’s easy. Just leave a comment in this post with a guess of between 0 and 99. The winner will be determined by the ending value of the Dow Jones Industrial Average on November 22nd. For example, if the value is 10,165.48, the winning number used would be 48. The closest person gets to choose their prize first, with ties being broken by who commented first, and so on until all prizes are gone.

E-mails are required for me to identify winners, but are not published nor are they added to any mailing list of any sort. I wouldn’t worry about duplicates, there will be duplicates no matter what.

#2 – Link To Your Favorite Post
All bloggers love new readers, and I am no exception. If you have any sort of website, be it big or tiny, webpage or blog, MySpace or Xanga, whatever, just add a new link on *your* site to your favorite post on *this* blog (My Money Blog, to be clear ;)).

Maybe it was a frugal tip? or money-making idea? or investing tidbits?

Then just let me know either by sending a trackback ping or by leaving a comment with your link URL. This way, you’ll get a link back to your site as well! Or you can just email me and I’ll take care of it. Each separate site link counts as one entry, so you can gain multiple entries. Winner will be chosen randomly.

Note: All sites that I find linking to me this month will be added, whether or not they read this post or not. I will track you down and shove the prizes into your house! 😉 Just kidding – if you want your link removed, just let me know.

But wait! I will also link to you here! (updated at least once a day)

More Details
The contest is scheduled to end at midnight Pacific on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving – November 21st. Spam, adult, gambling, or otherwise inappropriate sites don’t count. Use common sense here 🙂

I don’t know if the foreign-language blogs are outside North America, but I realize that I did not start this contest out with the usual USA addresses-only clause. I am willing to spend a little more money for international postage, but if it gets crazy then I will simply send you the retail value of the prize. I hope that’s fair.

One guessing (method #1) entry per person. Fraudulent entries will result in all related entries thrown out. Your first number sticks if you pick more than one. US mailing addresses only, except for the first day where I didn?t say this and I may make some exceptions and pay out the value of the items. Employees, relatives, pets, and hood ornaments of MyMoneyBlog.com can’t enter. Okay lawyers, you happy?

Remember, half the prizes are set aside for linkers, and half for commenters. Do both to get the best chance of winning!

  124. Johnathan,

    I read this site everyday, first post.
    Since reading this and following some of your adice I have increased my net worth over 4% in the last 6 months.I started at a low point with no savings, and no investments in any market, money coming in was pretty much money going out. Through the birth of my child as inspiration and doing tons of research, I now contribute 6% to my companies 401K (max company match is 6%), i opned a 401K with T Rowe Price, I am building an emergency fund, already have $1,500 with $150 monthly deposits set up with ING, and I also have a sharebuilder account with a few dividend paying blue chip stocks which were purchased with the $50 bonus. I am thinking of getting their Visa card to pay my rent with, they offer a $25 bonus with every 2500 points, 1 point= 1 dollar, this way I can pretty much invest for free. After a few more months of building this foundation I may get into the O% balance transfer game. Anyways, just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration and sound advice.

    My guess is 22.

  125. 94

  126. My guess is 63.

  127. John in Carolina says

    I can’t believe no one has picked the most obvious number yet, so I will grab it here. I choose 50, and here is why guys. Since this is truly random, 50 has just as much chance as being correct as 0 or 99, however since there are multiple prizes, and he will give them away in order as to how close you are, 50 is the only logical choice. Yeah, I overanalyzed this, but then again that is what I do. 50 it is.

  128. I am going for 18

  129. My guess is 32.

  130. My guess is 18.

  131. 62 is my guess.

    Great Blog

  306. My birth year and favorite number, 71!

  307. 47 !!!

  308. Holy Crap!! 300 entries in 24 hours. I really should have told people to pick more numbers. Doh!

  309. I’ll go with 69 since I only found one dupe.

  310. SavingEverything says

    Actually, the prizes do not appeal to me at all! Magazine subscriptions–well they will just cause more junk mail and more things to recycle. Books–i read books at bookstores and library. Jonathan, maybe you should give the 500th entry a prize if it turns out to be that? Unless there are cheaters in this (cheaters: a person who uses multiple names and email addresses, and blogs,forums,links, etc. to increase their chances of winning a prize of their choice.) SO, you’r willing to pay for shipping on the items? Can you provide a gift receipt along with it so that we can return it for something we may want. Or, can we just have the money (retail value of the items)???

    historically: 1996=76;1999=52;2000=32;2002=84; 2004=42; 2005=09; 2006= ??

    Ok. I’m gonna guess 25.

  311. I would go with 04. The beanbag chair looks good!

  312. I’ll say 63.
    My seldom updated blog

  313. 32 is my guess

  314. 2 🙂

  315. Entering with a link and chose this post because I’m new to your site and haven’t read anything else…yet!

  316. 23 !!

  317. 89, though it’s a dupe.

    I’ll follow up with my link later.

  318. All the numbers have been taken. I’ll go with 99 as a repeat! Thank you for your well-researched posts!

  332. SavingEverything says

    Can you please disclose the full Terms and Conditions of this Thanksgiving Giveaway-Over $400 Prizes? What are the eligibility requirements? Who is not allowed? Can families and relatives and workers of MyMoneyBlog participate? (are you telling your wife and your brothers and sons to participate to just keeep the prizes? to me that’s a scam!) I want to read the full terms and conditions of this offer. Are multiple entries allowed? Are multiple email addresses and multiple links allowed? Since the disclosures are not mentioned, we must all think that they are allowed. in which case, i want numbers 1 through 99! What does all our new entries think? or, are you all the same person as above using different name or different email? Jonathan, what’s the policies on this!?!?!?!

  333. Jill Shaffer says

    I am going to say 45, though I am sure it has already been taken!

  334. 98 here

  335. My guess is 22

  336. 28

  337. TrumptheWeb says

    woohoo! 15 if taken, 72, if taken 35, if taken 89

  338. Love the blog. My guess is 97.

  339. I’ll take 10

  340. 34

  341. 39

  342. 14

  343. Sigh. This contest is ruled by common sense. One entry per person. Fraudulent entries will be thrown result in all entries as thrown out. If you don’t like the prizes, then don’t participate. Your first number sticks if you pick more than one. US mailing addresses only, except for the first day where I didn’t say this and I may make some exceptions and pay out the value of the items.

  344. Man, every number is taken. I’m gonna try 52, right up the middle, thanks Jonathan!

  345. 81

  346. Binary Dollar says

    99. My favorite non-taken number.

  347. My guess is 32

    Then my Money Blog can be found at:
    http://bigqueue-money.blogspot.com/

    As to a particular post…again from my BLOG on a cell phone service called FRUCALL. Check it out at:
    http://bigqueue-money.blogspot.com/2006/11/wow-what-great-free-cell-phone-driven.html

  348. I’ll guess ‘1’, although someone probably already guessed that, but a 1 is a pain to search for on the page with Ctrl-F.

  349. Binary Dollar says

    DANGIT. It was taken. 6 or 06?

  350. Binary Dollar says

    I give up.

  351. There are only 100 possible numbers and 300+ entries. Duplicates are unavoidable!!! 🙂 You can still win, there are plenty of prizes. First guess is the only one that counts.

  352. 57

  353. My guess is 78.

  354. Guessing 14.

  355. SavingEverything says

    The Rules of the Thanksgiving Giveaway-over $ 400 Prizes have conflicting information! 1) it states “One entry per person”; but, it states that you can enter by 2 ways for 2 entries? That means 1 person can have 2 entries.? 2) Your Rules seem to not avoid those people who have multiple email addresses, and would just give multiple entries using their multiple email addresses,; or, people using a no-real-name under “name”,; 3) i’ve been searching through your blog looking for your privacy policies, and it’s not there! it does not say anything about if you share information with third parties or second parties? or, no disclosure about selling. 4) What rules apply to this $400 Prizes Giveaway? Are the rules based on the game show “The Price Is Right”, where people guess the number without going over? For example, if you have 4 people at 52, 2 at 55, 3 people at 57, 1 at 59, 2 at 60, and 4 at 61, 1 at 62; and the Dow Jones Industrial Avg November 22nd closure is 58, and no one guesssed it, who wins?? Will the 1 person at 59 and 2 at 60 and 3 people at 57???

    I forgot what number i picked…. i think it was 25?
