TL;DR: I've closed doughroller after nearly 18 years. Now you'll find my work here and on my Youtube channel.
I started doughroller.net in May 2007. For 11 years I grew and nurtured the site into a vibrant destination that helped millions of visitors improve their finances. It was a blast writing about personal finance and investing, as well as learning to build and run a website. I loved it!
In 2018 I sold the site. A company in Israel was buying personal finance sites. That was a great experience as well. The buyer worked hard to continue what I had started, and for a time it worked.
By this time, I had retired from my law practice. I had worked at Forbes as a managing editor. And then I retired again and started this site and the Youtube channel. In 2023 the Israeli company decided to sell all of the personal finance websites it purchased in 2018.
At this time, the sites weren't doing as well as they once had. So I took the opportunity to buy Doughroller back. I'm thrilled that I got that opportunity. At the same time, it's a lot of work running one site, never mind two sites.
So I've consolidated everything here. The main focus of this site is investing and retirement planning.
