(Update: The video is no longer on the front page. To see it, visit here, and scroll down to the article titled “Blogs Expose Personal Finances”. For some reason, I also notice that she’s the only woman pictured. Weird.)
Wow. I just got a chance to check my personal e-mail and I am flabbergasted to find out that MyMoneyBlog and PFBlog has been mentioned by name on CBS Marketwatch! Sweet! To see the clip, go to Marketwatch.com and click on the video on the right. I had to turn up the sound really low, as to not give away that this is my blog (to protect my privacy as is mentioned in the video). Interviewed was Terri Cullen, columnist for the Wall Street Journal, who also wrote the article “Blogs Expose Personal Finance: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly”, which is available temporarily for free to read at http://wsj.com/free.
Welcome one and all, please feel poke around and let me know what you think. Ok, now to try and concentrate for another 2 1/2 hours before I can go home and watch it in surround sound. 😉 And if anyone can figure out how to save the clip, also please let me know!

Congratulations! Very positive comments for your blog; not so good for mine 🙂
Congrats Jonathan!
It’s a shame you can’t ask your friends “So, were YOU mentioned on Market Watch today?” without giving away your famous-blog secret!
It’s sad that finances are so taboo to speak of. If people were ashamed of debt and spoke about their financial woes, a lot of people would benefit.
Congrats again!
