I decided to do a quick survey of a bunch of personal finance bloggers I know and ask them what article they had written was the most helpful to their readers… My hope was that since many of those I asked have been writing articles for years that it would result in a pretty good round up of sorts.
If you take a minute and scan through, I am would be surprised if you didn’t find something of value. Enjoy!!

Excellent collection of personal finance articles! Thanks for including one of mine.
We have been collecting suggestions from hundreds of individuals across the U.S. on ways they use to reduce their home’s untility bills for us to use in our own home and to share with others. So far we have collected 240+ of their ideas and listed them here:
http://dailyhomerenotips.com/energy-conservation/
The best thing we have learned is that conserving energy consumed in the home has a immediate impact on creating savings for the individual. Why? It is because, in addition to being ‘green’, home energy conservation has an immediate impact on reducing a home’s electric and home heating and cooling utility bills month after month after month….and that is in after tax $$$$.
It get’s better. Of the 240+ home energy conservation tips on the list, 100+ cost absolutely nothing to do while a further 75+ cost next to nothing. If you have a way in which you conserve electricity or home heating or home cooling in your home that is not on this list please share so we can all win.
