Johnathan Clements

I have been reading his blog an WSJ column for decades. His "Humble Dollar" provides good, if somewhat basic financial advice, and the comments and guest commentaries are always interesting

Last Saturday in a post " The C Word" Clements disclosed he has stage 4 lung Cancer with brain mets.

Typical of Jonathan, he followed the details of his diagnosis and treatment with a discussion of financial advice for someone facing death in a time sooner than he expected before the diagnosis.

He now is starting a forum where readers can post, changing from his previous format of longer articles edited with reader comments.

IF you don't know the site "Humble Dollar" it is worth looking at, especially for folks with limited financial experience. An equally f good reason is to boost the site views and support Jonathan in his upcoming treatment.

OMG. He's got big balls. My hat is off to him. Oh, that's dreadful news.

I too have enjoyed his writings over the years. He seemed to be the type of person who would be willing to sit and have a few cups of coffee with you.
Indeed, sad news.

His 'C' page write, from June 15, is here.

ADD: there is a comments area below his page write.

I’m sorry to hear that. I used to read his columns regularly, and I think I read one of his books.
