LadiesintheRed.com
I happened across this website recently and it's great! It's a new site and there's stuff going on it regularly so there's always something new to read. It's aimed at young women in financial trouble (bankruptcy and like) but even though I'm solvent I still found it interesting and good fun. It isn't like any other financial site I've seen before and it's about time there was something like this if the news headlines about ever-increasing figures of women going bust are correct!
