Ah Pinterest… a place where we can stare at other people’s “perfect” lives and lust after things for sale. And drool. Drool over amazing meals.
That’s what Pinterest seems like to me, most of the time, anyway. However, it doesn’t have to be.
Enter: Personal Finance Bloggers on Pinterest. You can also add in a whole host of Mommy bloggers, too. There are pins galore on frugal meal ideas, how to pay off debt, saving for a house, Jet Setter Interviews (*cough*), financial independence… and travel. PF’ers seem to have a thing for travel.
To help you avoid Keeping Up with the Joneses Syndrome, if only a little bit, I’ve pulled together a great group of Pinterest People to Follow, comprised of money bloggers of various stripes!
Even better, Jenna from PF Twins suggested a group board, for all things money. You can Follow the Group Personal Finance Board Here (opens in new tab), and pop me an email, with your Pinterest email address included, to request an invite to the board. Pin your posts, or anything great that you find, to the group board and we can all repin them to our own boards from there.
All of the links to Pinterest will open in a new window, so with a few clicks, you can follow nearly 20 new people. Enjoy! (There is a cheater section at the bottom with all the links in a row.)

Hi Anne. Thanks for putting his list together. It’s quite a fine collection!
I do have a question: when creating a new board on Pinterest related to money, which one of the big categories should I use? None of them really seem to be related to personal finance?
DJ recently posted…Going Out to Eat Tonight? Here are 31 Tips for Spending Less at Restaurants
I end up using Technology or Other, unfortunately!
Thank you so much for creating this list. I make it a point to follow all the personal finance related boards and bloggers. That’s how I found this post! I’m a very active pinner and have several boards dedicated to money. Come and see @ https://www.pinterest.com/xalis/
Cassie recently posted…A List of Free Adult Coloring Page Sources
Just found this post on pinterest today and so glad I did!! I love pinterest, but sometimes it can be a little overwhelming to try and figure out who to follow. My family and I have been in downsizing mode for almost 2 years and in the next month – cable goes. I am learning so much about finance and that being frugal and money-conscience doesn’t mean your life is “poor”.
Thank you again!

Thank you so much for coming by! Life is a-ok without cable, I promise 🙂
Everything connected with money is interesting. So followed all in the list. Thanks for sharing! 🙂 Here is my Pinterest https://www.pinterest.com/riana89/
Thanks for following us!!
I literally have no clue how to use Pinterest or what the attraction is to it! But! I think I *should* be using it so I’m trying! Here’s what I have so far: http://www.pinterest.com/lesliebesliebk Thanks for this list, I just followed everyone. Is that what you’re supposed to do?
Leslie Beslie recently posted…Baking Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe + Tutorial
Yup!! I’ll also add you to the group board, and the more we repin each other’s stuff from the group board, the better.
Pinterest can be a very useful tool for traffic, though I’ve found it takes a little while to gain traction.
Always enjoy learning about other bloggers in the personal finance arena who have a Pinterest presence. Great piece.

Oh well… there goes my day! Is it my imagination or does Pinterest emit a time dilation field so three hours feels like 10 minutes? It’s my favourite form of social media – perfect for those of us who rarely move in straight lines.
This collection is very new: http://www.pinterest.com/SMoneySLife/ but it looks like I have no excuses now.
Thank you for putting together this list!
