Lucky Leprechaun Giveaway Hop: MoneyMindedMoms

~~The giveaway is now CLOSED. Congrats to winner Laura!~~

Happy St. Patrick's Day and welcome to Lucky Leprechaun Giveaway Hop!

Spring is officially here! In celebration of this special holiday, over 200 blogs have joined the Lucky Leprechaun Giveaway Hop graciously hosted by I Am A Reader, Not A Writer & Books Complete Me. Each blog is giving away book-related prizes including Amazon gift cards. Check out the linky at the end of this post and enter as many giveaways as you like! You are also welcome to enter all my current giveaways. Happy blog hopping and good luck!

The prize on my blog is Suze Orman's book Women & Money: Owning the Power to Control Your Destiny.

Last summer financial guru Suze Orman launched an online community known as MoneyMindedMoms, which strives to help moms make smarter money choices. Suze has recently revamped her site and partnered with a team of MoneyMindedMoms bloggers to bring you more perspectives on money-related topics, such as erasing and managing debt, raising money minded kids and coupons and discounts.

MoneyMindedMoms community members have free access to valuable information, financial tools and easy to follow advice from the experts. Suze takes the time to personally respond to questions from members and has even been known to post a video response in some cases. In addition, every month through May 2011, one lucky member will win 1-on-1 time with Suze through the “Ask Suze” Sweepstakes.

You're strongly encouraged to join this free community and utilize their unique features like debt eliminator, expense tracker, coupon savings center, and forums. You can also connect with Suze and the MoneyMindedMoms community on Twitter, Facebook and YouTube.

MyBlogSpark has sent me a copy of the latest edition of Suze's book Women & Money: Owning the Power to Control Your Destiny. As its title suggests, this little book aims to empower women and boost their financial independence through what Suze calls "The Save Yourself Plan". It's an inspiring and informative book which advises women on how to pay off debt, re-establish credit, manage savings and investment, prepare for retirement, and ultimately to protect your family under harsh circumstances. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to increase her financial savvy!
