Every other Tuesday we're reviewing another name in the Twittersphere.

Thanks to the World Cup, lots of @FinancialSamura's tweets lately are sports related. But he manages to bring it all back to money. And that's what you can expect if you decide to follow @FinancialSamura. No matter what people are talking about, he is able to make sense of it and explain how it could impact your pocketbook.

According to the "About" page at FinancialSamurai.com, the site's creator wanted a website where people could share their personal finances thoughts freely. The goal is to help people see other points of view, beyond their own with hopes of eliminating "narrow-minded fools" and exposing each other to great opportunities. The idea is that everyone has something to offer and all opinions are welcome at FinancialSamura.com. Another cool thing about this blog is that all profits are donated to local charities. It's great to see a personal finance site that truly is adhering to their own mission by using their money wisely.
