Where are all the money blogs? Someone should start a blog about money, we need more of them. Just joking, of course - there are hundreds, thousands of money blogs out there. Blogs about saving money, blogs about making money - thousands of blogs about the single topic of making money online alone, without considering the rest of the financial world! Nobody could possibly follow all of them. So, which money blogs are worth reading?

I don’t like to play favorites, but this new blog is shaping up to be one of mine, I think. It’s pretty comprehensive, tackling saving money, investing, reducing debt, paying off credit cards, creative refinancing ideas, interest rates predictions, debt consolidation, refinancing, investing, reducing expenses, reducing monthly payments, vehicle refinancing, and wealth creation, and I am looking forward to seeing how it develops. I think you need a broad mix of topics to truly cover planning for financial independence, and a range including credit cards, debt consolidation, refinancing advice, investment strategies and wealth building is just the ticket.

I like the references to authors like Suze Orman - it’s always good to see bloggers making references of any kind, rather than spouting opinions as though they have sone God-given right to give advice ex cathedra. And Suze’s advice is good and solid, timeless no matter what chaos is breaking loose in the financial markets.

Here’s a neat little blog covering a range of financial topics including how to save money, ways to earn extra money, how to reduce debt, how to reduce mortgage payments, ways to reduce credit card debt, and how to become debt-free. It’s pretty new, so we shall see how it develops, but the start is promising. There is some original thought going on here - I know! Remarkable, isn’t it?

The advice is good, solid, reliable advice based on financial fundamentals, not the fad of the day or the latest get-rich-quick scheme. You can bookmark and return to posts and find them just as valuable weeks, months, or years later. This is education rather than entertainment or space-filling, and all too rare in the online mental junk food industry.

Now, I hesitate to blow the horn too strongly on this little gem, because its early days yet, but I really like the style and variety of the posts about interest rates predictions, debt consolidation, refinancing, investing, reducing expenses, reducing monthly payments, vehicle refinancing, and wealth creation on this blog, and I am looking forward to reading more. Intelligence is a rare commodity online, where writers have become utterly divorced from editors, and virtually all publishing is vanity publishing.

This blog has the potential to be not only intelligent, but amusing and entertaining at the same time. I’ll be watching this one closely, and here’s hoping the quality remains high over time. We can never get enough of quality writing online - the problem is finding it amongst all the rubbish.

You can follow several blogs using RSS feeds, which saves time and effort in surfing around the internet to each blog. In general, I would recommend keeping an eye on the blog at moneytalksabout.com/blog, because it does exactly that for you, and the posts which are made directly to the Money Talks blog itself, in between the syndicated posts, are always good value too.

I think that just about everyone could benefit from reading about credit cards, debt consolidation, refinancing advice, investment strategies and wealth building on a regular basis. Of course, money blogs are not the only way to gain this information, but they are convenient. Generally they are written in a readable style and break the information into small enough chunks that you don’t get overwhelmed.

Now, this handful of recommendations is hardly the definitive list of money blogs! In any case, new money blogs come into existence every day, and there will be hundreds of undiscovered gems available elsewhere. Go ahead and add a comment with the URL of your favorites, and why you like them. Together we can pinpoint the best money blogs to be reading today. I look forward to hearing your thoughts.
