The November issue of Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine published their annual Best List which covered a range of products, from investments, to financial service, to travel and leisure. I don’t necessarily agree with their selections of best stocks, best mutual funds, or best credit cards, but it does give me some new information that I don’t know. For example, the magazine mentioned Muriel Siebert as the best place to invest in mutual funds. I never heard this firm before and don’t know exactly what they are offering. But it may be worth a look to see why it is recommended.

Anyway, following is the complete list of the best from the magazine. I added the links for your convenience. You may as well find something new :)

This is very helpful. I still can’t believe their favorite PF Blog. I think they just looked at the total number of feed readers and decided that it must be the best. I don’t know anyone who reads them any more.

Yeah I agree with Lazy on the PF Blog. They should put mine on there! :) I bet anyone who gets that kind of publicity will instantly add 20k readers.

TRP got multiple mentions while Vanguard had only one. I don’t know if it means Vanguard is losing its luster, but apparently indexing is not everything :)

I have to agree with those credit card listed, my research gives me very similar results
