Financial Radio Shows, The Comprehensive Guide

Posted by Sean | August 21, 2008 .

Today, I’d like to introduce one of the resources @ FR: The Financial Radio Guide
What Shows Are In Your City?
You might be surprised. Of the 11 shows in my city, I was initially familiar with 3. Where did all these other shows come from? It turns out, some of them are local and not available [...]

Personal Finance Blog Search Engine: “Plan B”

Posted by Sean | August 20, 2008 .

update to this post: Accepting Volunteers for Personal Finance Blog Search Engine
Google’s contributor system is BUGGY (I don’t think it could be that poor by design).
No problem, time for Plan B. For many people, it could be easier than Plan A.
Contributors can email sites to me directly. Although it is alway a good idea to [...]

Accepting Volunteers for Personal Finance Blog Search Engine

Posted by Sean | August 15, 2008 .

EDIT: the process has changed slightly, “please see this post on Plan B“
In May, I created a custom search engine of personal finance blog using Google CSE.
http://www.financialramblings.com/search/
It is not the biggest or even the best, at this time, but I wanted something I could keep current if necessary. Niche search engines are useful when researching [...]

Going to Iowa

Posted by Sean | August 15, 2008 .

Going out-of-town for a three day weekend in Iowa City. A college friend is taking the plunge and getting married. Should be fun. Probably no posts over the weekend, but a major series of posts will be ready in the next week or so.

Who loves comments? I love comments!

Posted by Sean | July 29, 2008 .

Great comments are the most exciting part of blogging. I love everything from a good one-liner to rambling alternative viewpoints. Heck, I already know what I think, unless I’m doing research that will take me in different directions. So to encourage comments from other financial bloggers, I’m working on a few changes to Financial Ramblings:

Update: Comments and Trackbacks

Posted by Sean | June 29, 2008 .

I enabled trackbacks. I’ve had bad experiences with them on past blogs, but I’ll keep my fingers crossed. Already, I accidentally deleted a few comments during FR’s first spam blitz. I don’t see how on earth they got selected, but Wordpress must have seen otherwise. I’ll see if they can be restored. I appreciate all [...]

Hello, Subscribers!

Posted by Sean | June 7, 2008 .

After being stuck at 1 subscriber (me) for the first couple weeks, Feedburner now displays a grand total of 15 readers. Woohoo! Already, I’ve received useful feedback in the comments, in line with my goal to tap the lazyweb and minimize financial blind spots. But enough about me.
If you are reading this post via [...]

Introducing the Schedule of Financial Podcasts

Posted by Sean | June 1, 2008 .

I take for granted how few people click on tabs, links… anything but the page they are on. I try to avoid this, but my own "bounce rate" probably goes up when I’m in the zone, too.
With that in mind, I want to bring your attention to a nifty little page on this site, the [...]

Email Issues

Posted by Sean | May 27, 2008 .

Drats! FinancialRambling.com’s email stopped working after the recent server relocation.
The fix is on the way, although we might not have 100% reliable operation until tomorrow.
Hooray! Email is back up.

First Post

Posted by Sean | May 11, 2008 .

Hi, I’m Sean, and this site is for collecting my thoughts on personal finance.
Lately, I’ve been getting intense with my goal of financial freedom. In the near term, freedom means being free of as many payments as possible, including the house. In the long term, freedom means reaching the “pinnacle point” and being able to live [...]
