Our Editorial Standards & How We Make Money


While we take a casual, conversational, and oftentimes entertaining approach towards personal finance, our top priority is providing accurate, reliable information.

Integrity and trust is especially important when it comes to talking about your finances. That’s why everything we do centers around editorial integrity. Our team spends hundreds of hours per month researching news and information. Our team of journalists, writers, and editors have joined Common Cents Mom after working at top tier publications like Forbes, CNBC, and The Washington Post.

While we love to have fun with personal finance, we also rigorously fact-check each article before it can go live on our website.

Our commitment to you, besides sharing fun personal finance stories, is 100% accuracy and honesty about any topic we cover.
