You might have noticed a new addition to the top of the web page—a little something called the ¡Random! button. Curious what it does?
This handy feature, crafted by none other than our resident tech genius, Mrs. Money Mustache, is your new gateway to randomness and nostalgia. Thanks, Mrs. M!
Why the ¡Random! Button?
With over 170 articles (and counting) on this blog, newer readers often miss out on the older gems hidden in the archives. Some brave souls start at the beginning, determined to work their way through the entire collection, earning their stripes as Senior Mustachians—complete with a mustachioed icon in the comments section.
But let’s face it: not everyone has time for a full archive deep dive. That’s where the ¡Random! button comes in. One click takes you to a randomly selected post from the past. If it’s not quite what you’re in the mood for, no problem—just click again for another surprise.
Who Will Love This Feature?
Office Procrastinators
For those stuck in the grind of a five-day workweek, waiting for the next MMM article can feel like an eternity (I know, I typically only post two or three times a week). Sure, there are plenty of other personal finance blogs out there, but do they have the same irreverence, punching metaphors, or colorful language? Exactly.
The ¡Random! button provides the perfect distraction—quick, unexpected, and always Mustachian.
The Nostalgic Blogger (That’s Me)
Even I’ve found myself clicking this button to revisit old posts. It’s like flipping through a photo album of my writing—sometimes amusing, occasionally cringe-worthy, but always a chance to reflect. I often spot ways to update outdated content or polish up embarrassing oversights. Over time, this feature will help refine the blog, one random click at a time.
How It Works
It’s simple:
- Click the ¡Random! button.
- Enjoy a surprise post from the archives.
- Repeat as needed.
Whether you’re looking for inspiration, killing time, or just want a laugh, the ¡Random! button has you covered. It’s a little piece of magic designed to keep the Mustachian spirit alive and kicking.
So go ahead—give it a try and see where it takes you!
