Around the Sun: A Blog About Saving Money in Portland, Oregon, and beyond

Portland’s GetRichSlowly.org on Money Magazine’s 100 Best List

April 21st, 2008

GetRichSlowly.org, a personal finance blog written by Portland-area resident J.D. Roth, has been named “Most Inspiring” blog in the May 2008 issue of Money Magazine. GRS is one of three blogs included in the magazine’s annual list of the top 100 “people, places, things and strategies worth knowing right this minute.”

If you’re a regular reader of Around the Sun, you already know how inspiring I think GetRichSlowly is. The title of “Most Inspiring” definitely fits, but I’d say the site’s combination of information and inspiration is what has kept me coming back for almost two years. (In case you’re wondering, I’ve never met J.D. so it’s not a personal thing; the blog is just that good.)

You can read what Money Magazine has to say here.

The other blogs on the list include another favorite of mine, My Money Blog (named “Most Voyeuristic Blog”), and All Financial Matters (“Most Sensible Blog”).

In addition to blogs, the list covers “bests” in many other categories including jobs, stocks, cars, vacations, places to live, credit cards and more. Be sure to check out the magazine at your local library or online.
