Following our media debut in early April (Huffington Post, Province, and CTV National News, mentioned here
http://forum.mrmoneymustache.com/share-your-badassity/we-made-the-papers!/msg259845/#msg259845 ), I was asked to put on a lunch seminar at work about saving money and living frugally in Vancouver. I did it last week, and it was a hit!
I talked about tracking your money, and saving on housing (big one in Vancouver), entertainment, and groceries. I threw in a lot of personal anecdotes to make it funny at the same time as educational, and it seemed to work - I've gotten great feedback since! As a nice gesture, management also gave me a nice bouquet of flowers that are now on my kitchen table, and a movie gift card.
We also finally got our act together and wrote a short e-book that we've been meaning to for a long time, basically a complete guide to affordable living in Vancouver (though the bulk of it would apply to nearly anywhere). People have been asking us to do this forever, and it's finally done! We named it after our blog, Incoming Assets, and there are links to it from our blog at
www.incomingassets.com . It was a lot of fun to write, so I'm embarking on a solo e-book project as well now, entirely on budget cooking, with all our favourite recipes (another project I've been postponing forever!).
I'm very happy with our accomplishments!
