Philip Sharp is Clearly Broke.
Welcome to clearlybroke.com.
The title is a pun on the idea of monetary transparency. Transparency is a hot corporate trend at the moment, with companies like Google ostensibly keeping no secrets and posting all activity via blogs, forums, and so on.
Similarly, I aim to post to the world all the worries of my crazy financial life. I have money problems! Look for yourself!
Money is considered by most to be a private matter, but my debts and worries have become hyperbole to the point of humor. Indeed, money interests most people, and if you (shame on you!) have ever peered around your friend's shoulder at an ATM to see what kinda scrilla s/he may or may not be ballin' with -- then you may very well enjoy this blog!
I am curious to see the side-effects of transparency. For example: I'm quite certain that, thanks to this blog alone, I will never again be qualified for a credit card or loan.
Look forward to some very interesting bills, bank statements, and so on.
In addition, I will post quasi-philosophical thoughts on spending, debt, and tricks for quick money-making -- as well as open up the blog for people to contribute their own tips.
Get-rich-quick schemes, real-estate seminars, E-bay tutorials and the like will all be given a sound scoffing and figurative kick in the nuts. (Read again: NO!) What I *WILL* post are ways I have stretched my budgets, along with all the problems I have created for myself in doing so.
Have fun!
... and... hey, I need bus fare home...

As my blog grows, perhaps you could join and share some tips for living with no money.
Iceland, by the way, rules. I've been there once. I have a blog about my forthcoming trip at:
