Getting Going Away

My favorite columnist from the WSJ, Johnathan Clements, wrote his last column yesterday. It is, was called Getting Going, and apparently he wrote over 1,000 columns on personal finance. I have only started to pay attention to him in the last five years when I started reading the Journal regularly.

If you have access to the archives of the WSJ, you should browse his archive. If not you should at least check out the last three columns he wrote. Online there is a column where he picks some of his favorites. There is advice in there about portfolio balancing and home purchases, all of which are pet topics for me.

His new position will be helping to advise ordinary investors. Hopefully, we will still be able to get his thoughts at the same price as the newspaper subscription.
