    A little reminder about my personal SLF donor challenge -- I'll throw in an extra $1 over and above my planned donation for every donation of $10 or more NRM recieves for the forums between Jan 1-July 31.

    Encourage other brave souls to join me in this challenge

    I'll mail a check before I hit the road. Is that address in Langley, WA still good to mail donations?

    Hi Alan, I pushed the donate button but when I tried to get to PayPal from the next window it would not load up the window. It kept trying to load it, but it never was successful?

    Hmmm, did you click on the paypal link or did you attempt to login to your paypal account using the login box on the right side?
    If you clicked on the link, it brings up an 'About' popup, describing paypal. If you have popups disabled in your browser, you'll likely not see it, which is OK because it really doesn't help you at all.

    If you did not use the login box, try that.

    Thanks, I think I did that but I will try again. I'm on the iPad so that may be the problem...

    Don't forget you can always just send in a check. Then every penny goes to upkeep the forums, instead of some getting syphoned off to Paypal. Just write SLF in the memo.

    Generally speaking, I can pretty much figure out if someone is an SLF member even if they don't remember to make a note. If they are, then I assume they're giving to SLF unless they've been a longstanding financial supporter of the FI work previously. I'll email to confirm a Paypal donation if it's not obvious either way. SLF is currently not being "charged" for any of my accounting work (neither is NRM!) At some point though (hopefully soon) I won't be doing the bookkeeping and someone less familiar with the SLF side may be, so it's good to get in the habit of specifying and save the life-energy expense.

    Will you be giving us an update on the financials soon? I'm curious to see how much action the reminders generated.
