Updated 2 to 3 times a week with practical and useful information.

Wonderful round-up, Trent!

Thanks for sharing!

I also like GetOutofDebt.org.
Steve personally answers people’s questions on personal finance. Many of these folks are financial train wrecks yet he provides solid information for them–free.
I also read ZenHabits and ChristianPF.
Thanks

The only downside to this is that I am signed up to 5-6 of them, and I am already in overload mode of information coming at me. I have to be careful what I get and read.

Do others have this issue too?

Your site has been so helpful for my husband and I. We also follow David Ramsey’s and Crown Financials websites wrt our Christian beliefs and priorities.

For those those who like to clip coupons, another great site is http://neverpayretailagain.blogspot.com/. This site’s received a lot of recognition.

I read ‘em all. Ramit, too, when I am in the mood for snark. Nice to find out about some new ones.

Not to say that sometimes you don’t earn the constructive criticism that people dish out, but really, some of the snarking that goes on (new top 25 list – fun words including snark and love-fest) just distracts from your message and any useful additions. I come here to learn. If I feel an urge to snark, I call a girlfriend. It goes well with chocolate…

Keep up the excellent work, Trent. Love-fest all around!

I check a lot of those blogs but had missed many of the articles you cited so spent a little time catching up on those. Philip Brewer is my favorite Wise Bread blogger too!

Bargaineering, The Digerati Life, The Simple Dollar, Free Money Finance, and Clever Dude were probably five of the first personal finance blogs that I started reading. Those five(plus some others) had great motivation for me to create my blog. I’m plugging away, and like Michele, hope that I can be on more and more favorite’s lists someday.

Thanks for posting this.

I read some of those sites and will be sure to check out the rest. I started a personal finance blog about 8 months ago and hope one day to be listed on someone’s favorites! :-)

(we’re different, and that’s cool) make about as succinct an explanation as any of what makes GRS a far more readable blog than TSD.”

I’d far rather that you GROW via another site than stick around here and not grow. My sincere goal is making sure that as many people as possible get on the path to improving their lives. That’s why I posted this list – there are twenty five great sites up there for you to do just that if The Simple Dollar isn’t doing it for you. Why else would I post such a long article loaded with nothing but links to sites other than my own? Encouraging people to go elsewhere is not a route to personal glory or money – but it is a great way to help people find the answers they need.

I’m not sure why you find that to be a negative, but to each his own, I suppose.

(I like you too, for example!)

I agree with J.D. about Philip Brewer. He *should* have his own blog. Actually, I’m one of the few that still rely on bookmarks vs. a feed reader so from my view he does have his own blog and so worth following along:

Another one that’s been around forever is My Open Wallet (http://www.myopenwallet.net/). She’s a smart New Yorker making good choices with her money… and her quick wit shows up often in her writings.

One of the things I love about your site is I get to see links to other site.:) I learned a lot. Thanks again!
