WARNING WARNING WARNING
I'm about to get slightly corporate which is something I do not often do and I don't think I have ever done around here so I thought I'd better preface this with a warning.
I wonder.....the old boards were tied into the concept of Your Money or Your Life which was in my opinion the "brand" that loosely steered this ship. Matter of fact I think when I landed here back in August of 2005, I did a search for simple living your money or your life and ended out here and liked what I saw and jumped in.
The economy overall has changed a great deal since 2005, I think most would agree with this. For one thing, the treasuries that are espoused in YMOYL are paying sad amounts now, very sad. And inflation on everyday items is going up up up, I can see this in my trips to the store on a sadly regular basis now. So I'm thinking that many folks may have scrapped YMOYL or at least part of it.
Which brings me to my point. I'm wondering if we want to attract others to this site and have things more lively as they once were - maybe we need to think of having some kind of "brand" loosely guide this ship once again? I don't mean brand in the sense of Proctor and Gamble or Coca Cola or HP - I mean brand in the sense of some kind of guiding concept.
What do you'all think? Rob
