4 years already for the #BSRI ! 4 years that I have been continuously seeking to increase my wealth and my savings rate. And what better way to do that than to study other bloggers who also document their journey towards financial independence!
That’s why I created this ranking of personal finance bloggers by savings rate (aka. #BSRI) so I’d never run out of inspiration.
