The New Money Magazine

I subscribed to Money magazine back in the go-go 90's, when it offered lots of investment tips.  Evidently the bursting of the tech bubble shook things up at the publication, since the new version of Money doesn't focus much on stocks and bonds.  I think that's a good thing, because the magazine now provides a lot of helpful information about maximizing your income and cutting expenses.  For instance, recent articles detail specific steps you can take to reduce energy costs and to take control of your credit score.

The April 2006 issue of Money arrived just a few days ago, and it has lots of goodies, including some articles that touch on estate planning and probate issues:

-an article on reverse mortgages, with a sidebar offering advice to those who inherit a house with a reverse mortgage;

-an article that discusses "What you need to ask yourself when you're asked to care for a loved one's children" after the loved one passes away; and

-an article on prenuptial agreements.

One downside to Money: it seems to have almost zero internet presence.  This appears to be the magazine's homepage, and it offers very little in the way of articles -- plus, the articles it does offer relate mostly to stocks and such.  That's a shame, since the new version of the magazine provides so much more.
