5 Great Personal Finance Blogs for the Everyday Person - Associated Content

Posted: 07 Sep 2010 03:49 PM PDT

I'm the sort of person who likes more reasonable personal finance blogs that are useful and understandable to the average consumer/investor. I look for sites that will teach me how to best
 save and make use of my money. I don't want to hear about the greatest mutual funds, or investment strategies. I don't want an investment banker or financial analyst to have to translate what's being advocated or the strategies being used. I want simple, easy to follow ways to save a buck or figure out how to make more efficient use of my money.

That being said, here are some of my top picks for a few such sites.

The Penny-Wise Provider

Of course I had to put my personal finance blog first. Found at www.pennywiseprovider.blogspot.com, I couldn't help but plug myself a little bit on this list of personal finance blogs. While I'm still growing the site, I attempt to touch on a variety of subjects that are related to an efficient, effective, and economical lifestyle.

With topics ranging from making your food go farther by de-glazing a pan, to stocking emergency food supplies and preparing for retirement, The Penny-wise Provider blog attempts to provide a little bit of everything when it comes to making the most of your personal finances.

My Open Wallet

And I thought I was neurotic about tracking my expenses and income! This site takes keeping tabs on your money to a whole new level -- which I think is awesome! And to top that, this gal (who refers to herself as "Madame X") is surprisingly open about her financial situation. It's quite interesting to see how she earns and saves and where she spends her money.

Being honest and open about your personal finances is often easier said than done, especially when opening yourself up for the world to see, which is pretty much what MyOpenWallet.com does. As a personal finance blogger myself, I had expectations of doing much the same thing, but when it comes time to put your financial information out for all to see, it can make you think twice.
