I waited awhile to launch this because I wanted to get a handle on who I really wanted to include. These writers either helped me out when I was a clueless newbie, or I am attracted to their story, or both.

Over time, you get a feel for who is out there in the blogosphere helping you out along the way, I’d like to give a special shout out to;

Lily at The Frugal Gene

Amy at Life Zemplified

EJ over at DadsDollarsDebts

And Mr. JumpStart at JumpStartFromScratch.

A new guy on the scene HaltCatchFire

Another new guy on the scene, TheGrayingSaver

Caroline over at MoneyScrap

Justin at DoublingDollars.

Steve’s Boss over at TimeintheMarket.

Jason at ReachingOurBalance.

Lastly, the Good Doctor over at XRAYVSN.

There is such a short list of FIRE types who venture out into story telling, we should all know each other. Here are 3;

Matt at We Are All Poor Here

And Freddy at Freddy Smidlap

Brent at DebtFiles.

I could have listed the usual suspects here, but I know they are not hurting for page visits 🙂 Now of course I love the same PF blogs we all do, but I wanted to purposely target some lesser know blogs in order to highlight this next generation of up and coming blogs. I also tried to keep it mostly to blogs started in the last 2 years or so.

Here you go;

AfterTheFinishLine : This guy got FIRE noticed by the New York Times!

Investegies : This site has lots of articles to help out investors.

JustStopSpending – Brand new blog. Spread the love and check it out.

Here are the Blogs I follow that concentrate on Dividend Portfolios;

DivHut :He has a great list built up for fellow dividend junkies.

DividendDaze : Did I mention I love watching other people’s portfolios?

DividendsDiversify : Because who can have enough dividend blogs? It’s like free money!

Dividend Driven :This guy has a lot of the same goals as I do.

The Extra Income : I love watching portfolios grow, this site is very thorough with its stock picks.

PassiveCanadianIncome : All the way ‘Up North’. He likes PMs and Dividends.

Stockles : Keeping track of Nordic PF sites and trying to get to his goal of $80k in dividends.

ALSO for something really different;

I am trying to build some bridges with the Prepping community and have started to try and get some crossover traffic. Here are some links for those interesting in pursuing;

Survival Pulse 

The Prepper Journal –  devoted to a wide variety of preparedness, survival, self-reliance and personal defense topics for readers who want to protect themselves and their family from seen and unseen disasters in our future.

This list does change over time, check back every once in awhile.
