Not Just About the Money

From September 2023 to October 2024 I penned nine articles for HumbleDollar, all were all edited by Jonathan. With each article submitted, I asked Jonathan if he thought my stories fit in with HDs mission. You see, they provided scant financial advice, and leaned heavily on humorous things I picked up at places like my tax office or even the local watering holes where I used to sell beer. Still, Jonathan liked them because they leaned on the human side of money and relationships. 

Many of Jonathan’s writings had little or nothing to do with how to make money, but rather how to live your best retirement. Being happy is more important than having money, although money sure can help. But as Mark Crothers recently wrote, it’s one thing to have money, and another to know what to do with it. HumbleDollar can help you with both. 

There is literally a smorgasbord of content on the website to choose from. If you are new to HD, I encourage you to check out every one of Jonathan’s articles since the time of his cancer diagnosis in May of 2024. They are both deeply personal and instructive, and you don’t need to be looking death in the eye to benefit from the advice. 

For the newer readers, if you come across a writer that you like, just click on their name, and you can find everything they have posted, either on the forum, or the articles that were edited by Jonathan. 

And don’t be shy about starting a conversation, as the folks here are happy to share their experiences.
