In today's dismal economic times, I can't think of anything more valuable than showing people the way to get out of debt (or avoid it in the first place).

The funny thing is -- it's SO simple. Stop spending more money than you make. And set aside (at least) 10% for yourself before you pay the bills. That certainly doesn't require an entire website to teach. But as I've always said... It's common sense, not common knowledge.
Great to hear that. You should go into deeper detail however. Like why/how do we get ourselves into debt in the first place? Understanding the mechanism that gets us there is important if one hope to get himself out. How to break bad habits. The advantages of being out of debt. Motivational speeches or writings to help people, etc. I think the idea has tons of potential to be honest. Break a leg!
