Our buddy Matt tagged us asking about our "Five Obsessions?" and our new friend Start Up Princess wants to know "Five Reasons Why We Blog".
Kimber's shot at the answers.
My Five Obsessions?
1) I'll admit it, I check my stock prices more often than I need to (or should). Thankfully, I merely check them. I follow the plan I have in place for buying and selling.
2) Chocolate...enough said.
3) Hugh baby's cartoons over at GapingVoid. I hear tell they're more addictive than crack. Don't know, have never tried crack.
4) Blogging. RoadToForbes is down right now (til Friday) and I'm getting a bit buggy.
5) Romance novels...got to have a hit at least once a week. Keeps me emotionally stable.
Five Reasons Why I Blog?
1) To give back. First and foremost. Everything I know I learned from someone else so I'm merely passing it along.
2) I like to write. If I never see a cent from blogging or writing business romances (highly likely), I'd continue to write.
3) Meeting awesome people online like Single Ma and Amanda at Young And Broke.
4) Not having to repeat the same ol' stories while posting on discussion forums (I simply link to a post). Yeah, I'm lazy.
5) Having a ready excuse to bug NLL's E and RTF's Jscott.
E's Coffee-Enhanced Answers:
Five Obsessions?
1) Checking my email...
2) Mochas...enough said.
3) Reading, new books, learning and trying what I've learned.
4) Meeting new people (love it).
5) Dancing.
Five Reasons Why I Blog?
1) Ditto what Kimber said: "To give back. First and foremost. Everything I know I learned from someone else so I'm merely passing it along"
2) Accountability for reaching my goals.
3) Meeting other people to learn from, share with, etc.
4) I learn by doing- the more skills I have, the more my world of business opens up.
5) Because I can. The internet has leveled the playing field for women; especially for business, investing, learning, connecting. Love to see more women online making money! (Guy when are we writing that piece on "Women and Business Online"?)
Who to tag, who to tag? How about we mix it up a bit? We''ll tag some new friends and some old pals, and let them pick which question they want to answer?
Belated Birthday Girl: Back In Skinny Jeans

and Rich Minx
Our boy Jon over at Art of Money
J.D. at Get Rich Slowly
Kdog at Live Learn Invest
and a shout out to Chris aka the Man over at Chris Perruna (Market Talk) although, I'm not sure his is the kind of blog where answering a "tag" is appropriate!

I guess when it rains it pours! I liked the reason you both put for why you blog - the question has been bouncing around in my head lately.
