Actually, the site is called “Get Rich Slowly,” and it’s chock-full of tidbits and advice on saving money, earning money, and investing money. Lots of good stuff and links.
There is an occasional quibble, however, such as in the entry that excerpts a book about how to live better, fuller, wiser, etc. Practical suggestions, to be sure, but the capitalist in me cringes at this:

Support what other people do; spend your time and money on things done for something other than profit.

Dang it. I support what other people do whenever I buy groceries, fill up my gas tank, pay my utility bills, donate to a worthy charity, and buy new furniture. What on earth does the “…for something other than profit” line mean? Sounds like a throwaway line to support local musicians, artists, and such, which is fine, but it sends the wrong message by equating profit with something “bad” or otherwise than ideal.
