About the Editors
Flexo is the anonymous blogger behind Consumerism Commentary. His background is in music education and business, and he has a distaste for cult-like motivational speakers, especially those who try to simplify the world and dismiss with poor arguments like “Shut up,” and “If you don’t believe, I don’t need to convince you,” those with opposing viewpoints. Yes, some would consider Flexo a “racket.”
While he’s not standing up and arguing with poorly-trained seminar leaders trying to recruit crowds to buy some expensive product with little value, he plays piano and guitar and runs a countless amount of website projects.

Tim is the blogger behind My Money Forest. Personal finance and politics are the two major areas of personal and professional study for Tim. Growing up with a hard-working single Mom taught him the value of money and responsible financial managment. Among other things, Tim enjoys running, movies and spending time with his girlfriend and dog.
Vince is the blogger behind Investorial. He has not yet edited this page to add his bio.
