Rag Review

I usually don't read magazines - the occasional home improvement rag and the daily paper, but nothing really beyond that. I've been seeing reviews though for Money Magazine's new look and format, so I thought I'd pick it up. Two days later, I've read the thing cover to cover, and I think it's great - Seemed the articles were practically tailored for people like me, late 20s, early 30s, sort of starting out, figuring out this money stuff, and trying to separate the wheat from the chaff in terms of press coverage of Americans' general money mess (low savings, high credit cards, all that - you've heard it before). So anyway, Money was great - articles on real estate, investing, saving, retirement, and an appropriately small section on those little rewards that are supposed to wait until you've accomplished a goal, but seem to creep into the must-have list in our consumer culture.

I loved it, I recommend it, I may subscribe, I think I would read it every month if it continues to be so strong. I think I'll wait until a few more issues come out to see whether this first one was just a super issue teaser to get folks like me to subscribe, or if it will really be that good.

Even though no one looks at this blog, Hoppy Easter Everyone.
