Recently Len Penzo of the Len Penzo dot Com personal finance blog has been posting the stories of his readers who live on less than $40,000 annually. These aren't single people just out of college who could get by comfortably on that income. Most are families with at least one child -- some with as many as four kids. And their stories are inspiring for anyone who might be struggling to make ends meet or who just wants to live more frugally. In fact, Len argues that most Americans could live on $40,000 a year. So if you want tips on making ends meet on $40,000, check out the posts on Len Penzo dot Com. And read on for more advice on managing your money from personal finance bloggers.
