Money smarts can net your Florida teen $750 essay contest

Post by em2nought »

I figure the really fiscally smart Florida teens must visit the bargain bin so I thought I'd mention this contest which I read about in the newspaper on Saturday.

Topic of the essay is "Good financial decision making skills", this is a gov't contest so you probably don't want to sound too bargain bin as they won't comprehend REAL fiscal responsibility. LOL ;) 750 word essay with a winner in each of five regions in Florida. You can log on at http://www.fldfs.com and click "Cash in on your money smarts." for complete details, or to download an essay application or submit an essay electronically.

Hopefully a few Tampa politicians will read your essay and quit throwing tons of money into bridges that crack before they're finished, elevated roads with piers that sink, or an art museum that looks like a pool enclosure(excellent for hurricanes).

Contest ends in February.

If you win send me a gift card or a "pay it forward" freebie. ;)
