MoneyBlogNetwork Launches
Looks like some of the major forces of personal finance blogging are joining forces. Today, the MoneyBlogNetwork was announced.
Putting 5 heads together should result in some interesting stuff. I’m curious to see what they come up with.

Ryan, thanks for blogging about what we’re doing.

Been looking through many of the net worth profiles on this site. Of those with mutliple entries, the vast majority show rising and in fact steeply rising net worth (myself included). Yes asset values have generally been increasing over this period, but most of these also show strong saving. I suspect that those people who are dissaving are less inclined to look at or post their net worth.
Also, some guidelines on how to categorize different sorts of assets and liabilities and some further breakout of the other categories could be a useful feature.

Great thought. I agree, it is a challenge to get dissavers to monitor their finances. But, even if you can only get those inclined to save (and a large enough sample size), I believe the trends amongst those across the various demographics will be similar to those in the real world.
Thanks for the feedback. Better guidelines is definitely high on our list. The breakout ability is something we’d like to do as well.
