Weekend Links: The Next Generation of Personal Finance Tools |
3 Comments |
Friday was a highlight in my personal finance writing career. NetworthIQ and Expensr hosted a meeting in San Francisco. I got to meet Flexo, Jim, SVB, J.D. and his wife, Cap, Sam, John, Jeffrey, and James. The idea was to brainstorm about the next generation of personal finance tools. If you want a good recap, I suggest these article from Get Rich Slowly and The Digerati Life. I find it funny that I just finished writing that personal finance isn't about the tools and here I am consulting on them. Perhaps soon, I'll detail how my "ideal personal finance tool" would work.
Articles from The Money Writers:
The Digerati Life writes about how to survive recession.
Generation X Finance asks if his generation is the cause of real estate and mortgage problems.
Money Smart Life writes about some market questions to ask before starting your own business.
In a creative article, Brip Blap writes, go to hell. I'm happy he finished by the article by mentioning not to burn bridges. I got a little concerned he might have been advocating that.
Million Dollar Journey writes about avoiding to upgrade your housing. This is something that's extremely difficult for me to think about. I have no problem living in a small space, but I really love to live in a new place. I'd like to thank Million Dollar Journey for including my article in the carnival of personal finance

I’ve only heard of the Digerati Life from all of the blogs you shared. Thanks for sharing them though, I’ll have to check them out!
Just wanted to say thanks again for coming out, it was great to meet and get your insight. I know I learned a lot and had a great time. Now, to make pfm as fun as a video game, we can do it right? Well, it’s definitely something to shoot for.
Sounds like a great event. I just read JD’s post as well.
