Does anyone know what happened to bankaholic.com? I haven't seen any new postings since August 19, 2016.

Click on the finance header. The latest CD review is September 9, 2016.

Thanks, you are right. I guess they're going on 5 weeks now since any new content; hmmm......

Still, CD and Savings rates are up to date. Do we really need commentary?

DA's CD and savings rates are up to date and Ken provides commentary and highlights deals and/or relevant financial news every day without fail.

As far as I'm concerned his blog is the best source by a mile, and that's why I stop by DA daily and by bankaholic once a month, if that often.

Bankaholic is owned by BankRate and it looks like it is going through a slow death.

All;
Hello , yes I know I'm late to the party;
however, I too was wondering and E-mailed the Webmaster of the Bankaholic website.
Here's the response:

"Good Afternoon Mr. Rxxxx,

The response I received from our Product Manager is that we are no longer posting updates on the Bankaholic website. Please feel free to visit the Bankrate.com website for similar financial information.

Thanks,

A few years back, I called BANKRATE and asked about local banks not being listed when they had run a special. The answer I got back was that they focus on National footprints, and those that advertise with them.

THANK YOU KEN, for filling the void. I love this site.

Bankaholic has a post today! Could it be they're back in business?

This post is mysterious. John Wu was the founder of Bankaholic. He sold it to Bankrate in 2008 for $15 million. The post was written in 2008, but "updated" today. Weird..

Never a huge fan of BankRate. Always appeared to be a "pay-to-play" site. When I was truly bored, I would check to see if the best deals Ken mentioned appeared on BankRate. Some did, most did not. Ken's blog wins, hands down.
