Young Professionals Mark One Year of Saving, Investing, And Financial Advice For Upcoming Generation .Alex was one of my "old" students.
Northville, MI May 29, 2008 – Young Professional Finance Blog (youngprofessionalfinance.com) celebrates one year of providing saving, investing, and financial advice for and by young professionals.
YPFB, started by Alex Fisher of Northville, provides insight and advice to young Americans in their 20s as they begin to finish university and move into a career, their own home, and choosing how to live their life.
"Learning how to manage money, becoming financially independent, and giving back to the world," said Fisher, "aren't necessarily skills taught to us in school. Yet, they're very important and they have to be picked-up somewhere."
A recent graduate of the University of Michigan—Dearborn with a Computer Engineering degree and a minor in Hispanic Studies, Fisher got his first job as an engineer in a new area and realized he had to learn about meeting new people, developing a career, giving back to the community, paying bills, and saving for retirement. He couldn't find a good resource for people just graduating college, and decided to create his own.
Assisted by other young professionals, Fisher contributes to the blog-o-sphere weekly where readers from as far as China check-in for the latest article.
Young Professional Finance Blog has had thousands of visitors in it's first year and even had one of it's stories featured as the number 1 entry on reddit.com's "what's hot" list, a popular destination for many on the web today.
"I'm really amazed at how much traffic and excitement has surrounded the site," said Fisher, adding "it's a great time to be a young professional!"
Young Professional Finance Blog (http://youngprofessionalfinance.com) is a personal finance site for young professionals learning to manage money, to become financially independent, and to give back to the world. Further information is available, contact Alex Fisher at 313.575.4036.

Having been a visitor to the site since its inception, I can safely say that Alex has done a wonderful job posting relevant and helpful information. It's a great resource for the 20-somethings that have their head on straight and are looking to advance themselves in many aspects of "growing up". Keep up the great work Alex!
