Money for the rest of us

Post by retired jerry » March 24th, 2015, 7:36 am

Anybody read or listened to http://www.moneyfortherestofus.net/

Really good investment advice so you'll be able to do more hiking

General info, not specific, not selling anything, no ads, I feel indebted so am posting this here, my only interest is reading/listening.

I've been downloading itunes mp3 files and listening while backpacking, especially when I can't get a good radio station. Sansa clip works pretty good, but it's cheap shit for sure - don't expect it to last, especially if you don't baby it. "Serial" is another good one.

99% Invisible is a little podcast about design and other things that are often not seen or recognized. About once a week, about 15-20 minutes or so. RadioLab quality production.

99% Invisible is like Invisibilia, but a different production.

Don't forget about Kickass Oregon History if you want a good podcast

Note: I guess I should put a possibly NSFW tag on that if you're listening on public speakers...

I'll have to check these out, podcasts help me pass the time while trapped in my cubicle for 8 hours a day!

One of my favorite podcasts is a BBC radio program called 'In Our Time'. The host gets three or four experts on a particular history subject and they discuss it in detail. Fascinating stuff.
