Following up on my comment on another topic about no longer reading TSD, I wondered if there were some others I should be reading. So...
What are some of your favorite personal finance blogs?
I read Get Rich Slowly, mostly for the rare "3rd stage" article JD will publish now and then. I don't like that it's become somewhat like WiseBread in the multiple writer format.
I also like Dividend Growth Investor's stock analysis and Crossing Wall Street's general commentary.

I still follow Simple Dollar and Get Rich Slowly but seem to have grown out of them (or they have stopped publishing exciting stuff).
Now I mostly follow rss feeds of investing blogs. Here are some examples. Don't believe everything they publish. ;-)

(I also follow some ER related forums and occasionally read a wellknown B&H forum - can't keep up with it, way too much posts)

Tom Hodgkinson from The Idler just linked back to me. I didn't know he had a blog, but he does. On a side note, I recommend the book---he almost inspired me to buy a ukulele. It was only my failings at "winning" on eBay which prevented its purchase.

@jacob: as your proofreader, i must do a fact-check: you are not 30, as Hodgkinson says, yes?

I enjoy http://www.punchdebtintheface.com/. The author, Ninja, has a good blend of PF, humor, and realism.

@rePete: it's a funny blog name, but i was surprised, given that name, that currently the second entry down is a guest blog by someone who answered "What to do with extra cash?" with "Renovate your house and buy leather couches." is this the PF part or the humor part? :)

No unfortunately, this is a bad time to check the blog out . . . Ninja is guest posting during his honeymoon. Check back in a week or two, or look back a week or two.

I kinda like this one. It started out as a PF blog but has morphed into a "state of the middle class" blog. But it's interesting, he uses a lot of graphs to back up what he posts.
