I have not received any issue

2008-07-17
I am sure it's a good magazine, if I would ever receive one. I ordered this is November 2007 and it's now July 2008 and still no magazine.

Wanted something a little more technical

I felt that smart money was a little too dumbed down. I was looking for a personal finance magazine that strongly backed their suggestions with well thought out, detailed, explanations.

I choose Kiplinger's over SmartMoney after reading both for a year.

Over Promise, Under Deliver

This is a slick and beautifully composed magazine. However, the attractiveness of the composition does not make up for the lack of depth in content. I find the articles full of fluff and miss the mark as compared to alternatives in the personal finance area. I recommend that readers compare other choices before subscribing.Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine

Magazine great, Amazon Not So Much

2008-05-09
I subscribed to this magazine based upon multiple sources recommending it. I had been buying it on the newstand so I know it is a useful mag. Amazon, however, it not the place to order magazines. Once you order you cannot cancel the order. Amazon refers you to the publisher (and good luck finding a source for that contact that doesn't require snail mail).

As of middle of May still not magazine in the mail...so now I am not even sure the subscription was processed. If the direct from publisher deal costs a couple of dollars more it is will worth it to avoid the hassle of using Amazon as the middle man. I was shocked because the customer service I normally receive from Amazon is excellent.

Ouch!!!

I've subscribed to Smart Money for the last three years. Just received an "Important SUBSCRIBER Notice" advising me that they were automatically extending my subscription into the future ad nauseum. "No more renewals to send back. No postage to pay. No more paperwork -- we take care of all the deatails for you by remewing your subscription automatically each year unless you tell us to stop."

Needless to say, I've notified them to stop. I wish I had never subscribed.

Great Magazine

SmartMoney comes to you straight from the editors of the Wall Street Journal, the best financial reporters in the business. Every issue brings you the information you need to know to deal with markets and protecting your wealth. Turn to SmartMoney for no-nonsense advice you can put into action.

Magazine subscription

It's nothing wrong with the product. However the problem is about buying magazine with this site, cause you will not get every issue, may be just 6-7 issues. I had read same comment before I bought it last year but I didn't think anything. It's a lot cheaper to buy form here that buy from the magazine publisher itself. Nothing wrong with book. Just want you to rethink before you subscript.

Provides great investments leads, and well-written articles

2008-02-17
I have purchased shares of companies from Smart Money articles, but most importantly, it provides leads & insight. For example, they recently wrote about an Agriculture company, and while doing my due diligence I ended up buying one of their competitors that I felt had more potential. I've recommended Smart Money to other, and even given it as a gift for my father. Everyone has liked it so far.

Not a bad magazine. I haven't really had the chance to explore all of the articles yet.
