A while ago (_long_ while, about a year or so) there was a thread asking for consultants for a project about teen money management tips. (I’ll find the link later)  
Turns out this was a book by the **Motley Fool** , a major investment recommendation/tips company.  
They used a couple of my quotes from correspondence (sp?) with their editors in [this](http://r1.us.rmi.yahoo.com/rmi/http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbninquiry.asp/rmivars%3ftarget=_top?userid=2B4ON8Q8VH&sourceid=00330224845709736272&bfdate=09%2D09%2D2002+23%3A07%3A38&isbn=0743229967#customerReviews) book.

All started with the SDMB (one more thing added to the list of things that the SDMB has done to change my life).
