Connie Brooks is the owner of Thrifty Mamas.com, and the author of the soon to be published book "How to Retire Comfortably and Happy on Less Money Than the Financial Experts Say You Need: Insider Secrets to Spending Less While Living More".
Connie is an outspoken advocate for the production of safe and natural baby products. With the birth of her daughter she realized that many commonly used products like diaper ointment, wipes, and baby bottles included chemicals that she did not want going into her baby. From that goal, this site was born.
Thrifty Mamas was designed with a single purpose: To help you protect your family. We have sections devoted to product safety, financial security, and even current news and events that matter to your family.
Please feel free to take a look around! You can give us your opinion on these issues by leaving a comment after any of the articles on the site. We look forward to talking to you!
If you would like to contact Connie directly with a comment, a question, or anything else, you can reach her at Connie@ThriftyMamas.com
Donald Kohn, the Federal Reserve Vice Chairman gave a speech today (6/26/08) at the International Research Forum on Monetary Policy in Germany. In his speech he proposed the idea that fuel and food prices would soon be dropping.
To this, Mr. Vice Chairman, we respectfully say: Bull. Or, perhaps, Bear because that is what we are going to continue to see for quite a while.
