Personal Finance Bloggers Making An Impact
Aug 29 '06
The Bottom Line Personal finance may not be your favorite subject, but these bloggers make it enjoyable.
Blogging is a huge phenomena that we all know about. Bloggers have debunked military paperwork regarding George W. Bush during the 2004 election, broke news before mainstream media, and recently exposed doctored photos.
But not every type of blogger gets the attention they deserve. If you're a reader of BusinessWeek, Money Magazine and others you've no doubt heard about personal finance bloggers.
::: Personal Finance Bloggers :::
PF bloggers as they're known write articles about budgeting, credit cards, debt management, saving, investing and more. They are an eclectic and [mostly] young group who are on the fight against debt and applaud responsible fiscal management.
It might sound like a really dry topic but you'll find a lot of funny stories, good questions, practical tips and interesting people. It's a neat community and they're always open to helping people.
Get 'em all in one place: PFBlogs.org (www.pfblogs.org) - it's a personal finance blog aggregator.
