Winners of The Million Visitors Giveaway

Earlier, I was thinking of giving away $5,000 to the actual millionth visitor on my site, but since I had no way to accurately track down the specific individual, the thought fizzled ;) .

At any rate, I have tried to approximate the event by holding last week’s giveaway where I had a few of my favorite books as prizes. I’ll definitely hike up the prize values once I approach a few more memorable milestones (10 million? ;) ).

And the winners are: Free From Broke, Frugal Dad and reader “EN”. Congratulations to you three for winning one of the following:

Now on to some stuff I enjoyed reading over the last few days!

Thanks for the mention! You posted some of my favorite reads for this week too. :) Can’t wait to read the rest.

Thanks so much for the book! I am most grateful, but I’m fairly certain I was the 1 millionth viewer ($5,000 – WOW!)

@Frugal Dad,

I’m glad we don’t have an accurate way of identifying specific individuals (by count) or I’d be out a bunch of money… LOL.

Your book is on its way and I hope you enjoy it! :)

I really enjoyed Generation X’s article on ETFs. That was a great read.

Thanks so much for the contest and the book! I hope I can put The Boglehead’s Guide to Investing to good use. Congrats again on the visitor milestone!

I’m sorry for the late reply and email! My life was consumed the last few days and I didn’t have much time to get on the computer.

But I’d like to thank you again for the book. I can’t remember the last time I won something :)

You have some good resources here. I hadn’t heard about Lego Fruit Snacks before and agree that this was a pretty bad idea. It would be interesting to see how the meeting went for that one at…
