This is just a quick update for all of you who entered the Thousandaire Giveaway.
The winners have been randomly selected and the prizes are ready to be sent out. I have already contacted the winners via email that their prizes are ready and have heard back from some. I need to hear from everyone else so we know where to send the prize. I’m not going to post emails of the winners for obvious reasons, so please check your email to see if you won!
I really enjoyed giving away prizes to so many people. It just goes to show that Thousandaire is pretty much the best personal finance website on the internet. Who else gives away almost $700? Even the huge sites don’t do stuff like that. Why? You could ask them, but it might be because THEY DON’T LOVE YOU LIKE I DO!
So once again, congratulations to all the winners and stay tuned for the next contest. I’m probably going to wait two months to save up a bunch of money, and then do another big giveaway in December. I think it’ll be a great way to help people out with their Christmas shopping!
Also, thank you to everyone who participated in the giveaway. It means a lot that you guys are willing to follow me on twitter or like my Facebook page and share my content with your friends. It helps me feel all warm and tingly inside.
And finally in case you are curious, here is a video showing how the winners were selected at random and everything was completely fair. I really don’t recommend watching this video unless you have some reason to believe I cheated. It’s really not interesting; I just post it in the spirit of transparency.

Thanks a ton for the giveaway. I still can’t believe that I won the grand prize. What a lucky day. I just have to figure out what I am going to buy.
Thanks again,

Where’s my prize? 🙁
