I write a column on personal finance and I am looking for some interesting topics to write about?
Answer:
Personal budgets--making a lifestyle on different incomes (you can highlight how to get by and save money, even if you don't make a lot).
Saving for college, retirement, or a house. People like to read about things that will make their lives easier!
Taking out loans--interest rates, how to not wind up owing money for the rest of our lives. Tell personal stories to get readers more involved.
Properly investing. What are good options? How can we take our money and turn it into more money?
(PS, reading other people's suggestions, I really like the one about college kids and credit cards. It's definitely a dangerous situation, and would make for a great article.)
college students' fees and obligations
Why don't you write on investing as a person (not through a company) in the emerging markets (Brazil, Argentina, Turkey, Russia)?
I would like to read it.
How about how credit card companies target college students, the students get so far into debt, get out of school and still have no idea how to manage their finances!
How about trying to build your credit without actually having so many options to start your credit? It's like trying to join the Indy 500 and no one even wants to lend you even a go-kart. Go figure.

I'd be interested in learning why some people can manage money and others can't. It doesn't seem to matter how much money they actually have. The "good" managers can get by on very little, and the "bad" managers would end up broke if they started out with millions. What makes the difference?

stock markets, especially the performace of foreign stock markets--many are doing better than the US market, but which ones, why, what does the future hold, and what should investors be cautious about?
