The Index Card Challenge

I’m pretty far behind the times on this one. It came out back in 2013, but I just recently read an article on WashPo about University of Chicago social scientist Harold Pollack. Harold was challenged to share his best financial advice on a single index card. What he put together was about as good as any personal finance I’ve ever read, and it went instantly viral (as far as financial topics go).

I thought it might be a lot of fun to see what the rest of the blogosphere would put on their own index cards, so I’m challenging my blogging peers to send me their own financial advice (photos only, I want to see how bad their hand writing is) and I’ll posting them all here, on our Index Card Challenge page.

If you would like to submit your own card, send me a photo to adam@adamchudy.com.

Professor Pollack’s book comes out this year. The Index Card: Why Personal Finance Doesn’t Have to Be Complicated (out in January 2016)
