Looking for a personal finance blog worth actually reading in 2026? Singapore’s money-blog scene has grown in waves. From Dollars & Sense’s plain-English CPF and property explainers in 2012, to community platforms like Seedly, to comic-strip explainers like The Woke Salaryman, which launched in 2019. This list first ran in 2020, and six years on, we’ve kept it to blogs that have stuck around and serve different needs, from community Q&A to government literacy programmes to niche travel-hacking content. No rankings — just 11 finance blogs Singaporeans consistently return to in 2026, grouped by what each one is best for.

(Full entry write-ups below — each covers what the blog does well and who it’s for.)
Dollars & Sense
One of the older names on this list — founded in 2012 — Dollars & Sense is still one of the most useful if you want plain-language explainers on CPF, insurance and property rather than hot takes. Best for: personal finance basics.
Seedly
Seedly has grown into a community of over 500,000 users since launching in 2016 — the value here is less the articles themselves and more the comment threads and forum discussions underneath them, where real Singaporeans compare notes on everything from credit cards to CPF top-ups. Best for: community Q&A and investing discussion.
TheFinance.sg
Launched in 2015 by a single Singapore-based IT engineer, TheFinance.sg pulls together posts from across the local finance-blog scene into one feed rather than publishing its own take. Handy if you’d rather scan one page than follow ten different sites. Best for: an aggregated view of top SG finance blogs.
SingSaver
SingSaver is best used less as reading material and more as a comparison tool once you already know what product you’re shopping for. Credit cards, insurance and loan deals sit side by side here. Best for: deals, promotions and credit card sign-ups.
Budget Babe
Personal, conversational, and Singaporean in a way a lot of finance content isn’t. Budget Babe is less textbook, more “here’s what actually worked for me” on saving and investing. Best for: relatable everyday money hacks.
MoneySmart
Founded in 2009, MoneySmart pairs editorial content with comparison tools for loans, cards and insurance. The platform has processed more than 750,000 transactions across credit cards, loans, insurance and investment products since its 2024 15th-anniversary milestone, so you can read the explainer and shop the product on the same page. Best for: light-hearted budgeting and product comparison.
The Woke Salaryman
CPF, investing and salary negotiation explained through illustrated comic strips, created by He Ruiming and Goh Wei Choon since launching in April 2019. The Woke Salaryman may be a good fit if long-form articles aren’t how you prefer to absorb this stuff. Best for: financial basics in comic form.
MoneySense
Run under the MoneySense national financial education programme launched by MAS in 2003, MoneySense is the most structured, no-products-being-sold option on the list. Best for: government-backed financial literacy.
Dr Wealth
Stock analysis and portfolio-building content that goes deeper than most of the blogs on this list. Dr Wealth also has paid courses available for readers who want structured learning rather than one-off articles. Best for: investment education and courses.
The MileLion
Founded by Aaron Wong in April 2015, The MileLion is the go-to Singapore resource if you’re optimising credit card spend for flights and travel perks rather than cashback. Dense, specific, and written for people who already know the basics. Best for: credit cards, air miles and travel hacking.
Funding Societies Blog
If you run a business rather than just manage personal money, this is where to look for guides on business loans, invoice financing and cash flow management. Written by the team behind Singapore’s own SME financing platform, which made its first local loan (S$100,000 to a Singapore engineering firm) back in June 2015 and has since grown into a Southeast Asia-wide platform that’s channelled more than US$4 billion to roughly 100,000 SMEs regionally. Best for: SME financing and business growth. Explore SME business loan options.
Which blog should you start with?
If you’re just getting your finances in order, start with Dollars & Sense or MoneySense for the fundamentals. If you want a community to ask questions in, Seedly. If you run a business rather than just manage personal money, the Funding Societies Blog covers financing specifically. There’s no single “best” blog — the right one depends on what you’re trying to solve this month, not a ranking.
