All, I wanted to share a programming possibility/opportunity from a librarian friend who works in that state just to the south :) Please see below for details, as well as the attached. Jeff is the author of "The Ultimate Cheapskate's Road Map to True Riches" , "The Cheapskate Next Door" , "Don't Throw That Away!" , and "How to Retire the Cheapskate Way". Please feel free to contact Jeff (or Ben) if you have any questions. Thanks.

Very informative and entertaining. You may recognize him from having been a consultant on the Today Show , as well as the TLC show Extreme Cheapskates – and, well, you’ve probably bought his books. He’s quite polished (from TV spots and tons of presentations/workshops), so he’s minimal production and can adapt to whatever format/theme you have in mind. He does work for an honorarium, but he’s flexible and easy to work with. He’ll be in the area, so send him an email ( ultcheapskate@aol.com ) if you’re interested. See links below – and feel free to pass along to others – I’ve also included our flyer, so you see how we marketed him.
