My name is Sylvia and I am a Producer on the television show "biz kids" which airs on PBS affiliate stations nationwide and can be found at www.bizkids.com, we are currently shooting our fourth season of the show.

I am looking for FRUGAL budget conscious families to appear on our TV show, especially teens and young adults who are in college and living on a budget.

We are shooting three episodes now that are related to your story: "wheel of misfortune","Debt, get out and stay out" and "More bang for your buck". I believe your story and possibly that of some of your readers would be perfect and I would love to hear from anyone that would consider telling their stories on our show.

Please write me at: sylvia@bizkids.com and I look forward to hearing from you.

I really enjoyed my visit to this blog. The blogger posts on a vast array of subject all related to being in your forties, striving to reduce debt and dealing with grown children. I was particularly taken by her post A Ripple Effect of the Mortgage Crises - the growing number of homeless children.
