My wife and I decided to give a micro-loan today to a nice lady named Samaya Khnjanova. Samaya is from Imishli, Azerbaijan. I have no clue where that is but that doesn’t change the fact that buying someone a cow is cool.
For the record here is a map of Imishli, Azerbaijan.
Technically we didn’t buy her a whole cow but we partnered with a bunch of folks that all chipped in and bought four cows. It’s cool to think that somehow we are making a difference in someone’s life across the globe. In 17 months we will get our investment back and then be able to reinvest in another person’s life.

This is just one of the cool things you can do when you get out of debt! Don’t miss this weekend at Lifepoint as we talk about how everyone can get their finances on track and change the world!
Thanks for the map. I never would have figured out where that was without it.
