I thought it might be fun to see if everyone can remember how and/or when they found out about HumbleDollar?
I, myself, am not 100% sure. Maybe through the boglehead.org forums (which I’ve since abandoned)? I can’t recall, but I’m pretty sure that since 2018 or ’19 I’ve been a daily follower.
Jonathan did an interview for the Art of Manliness podcast. Been here ever since.
I don’t think I’ve heard of that pod. LOL. I’d like to see it.
The Art of Manliness podcast with Jonathan is at this link.
Looking back I see my first article was mid 2021, so I probably found the site a year or two before that. I had just read How to Think About Money, and went on the web to look for more by Jonathan. Thankfully HD was in the search results.
I think it was 2017 when it popped up in my MSN newsfeed, I was very pleased to see the familiar name as I hadn’t heard anything from Johnathan since he left the WSJ & was very pleased, he was hosting a new website called HumbleDollar. It has vastly exceeded my expectations; we have been the beneficiaries of so many rich and varied articles containing tons of helpful information enhanced with commentary. Have a question on something or need advice? there’s likely someone who has already spent countless hours studying the topic & can summarize what one needs to know in a few paragraphs or less or point one in the right direction on where to go for further information. A rich & varied community of people has been formed who swap advice & exchange ideas regularly. Thank you, Johnathan.
