Thanks for linking my article, Jim!

Had a couple people ask how I made my maps. I used software called XMind. There is a free version available at http://xmind.net. It is a java application that is cross platform for Windows, Mac and Linux.

Happy financial mapping!

Just posted my map, together with a description of my virtual envelope system. Thanks for the nudge!

Jim!

Long time reader, first time commenter! I think you’re doing the Lord’s work, clearing the economic cataracts from the eyes of the masses. Should’ve warned them more about the lousiness of callable bonds though!

I read all your posts from my reader; keep up the good work!

Jim, What a really great idea. You’ve inspired me to create my own financial network map: http://www.livemoneysmart.com/personal-finance/my-financial-network-diagram

Thanks for the mention. I actually just talked to my brother and his wife tonight about setting up their own map

I drew my financial map over a year ago, so that I could rethink how I was doing it. The rethought version is still fairly accurate to my current situation, so I haven’t updated it at all. But here are my maps: http://poorerthanyou.com/2008/02/13/rethinking-my-bank-accounts/
