October, 2014&#8243;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Personal finance is a subject that is dear to my heart. After experiencing many losses in my personal life, including being laid off my job in 2008, I decided to take action and start being in control of my future. That included learning everything I could about personal finance, technology and business start up strategies. I have benefited greatly in terms of understanding personal finance, living life more securely and helping others avoid debt and reach their personal finance goals. Blogging has been a way to meet new people, learn new things and help others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Likes:<\/strong> Hot chocolate, movies, word games, creating, blogging, search engine optimization, marketing, WordPress, PHP, MySQL, Affiliate Summit, nature walks, art work, traveling, networking, photography<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dislikes:<\/strong> Mints after eating licorice, disorganization, bugs, spiders<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to contribute your story to this blog, please contact me.<br \/>\n[si-contact-form form=&#8217;2&#8242;]<br \/>\nWarm regards,<\/p>\n<p>~ <a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/114155345458708168809\" rel=\"me\">Sherry Tingley<\/a><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6538\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6538\" style=\"width: 199px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.coolchecks.net\/blog\/about\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-6538\" src=\"http:\/\/www.coolchecks.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/camel-ride-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"Camel Riding in Wadi Rum.\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6538\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Enjoying a camel ride during a recent trip to the Middle East.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About The Coolchecks.net Blog The Coolchecks.net blog was started in 2008, shortly after launching a hand coded, aggregated datafeed website that gives customers an easy way to find fun personal and business checks without going to ten different websites.
