“Financial sphere is one of the most fascinating”

SeanLoi L.

I love checking financial news because it seems to me that all the money are in finances basically. Of course, some people prefer the spheres of their livelihood, however nothing can overpersuade me in this case. I love investing money and guess that it's a great opportunity for all people to save money without any thoughts that it can be ingulfed by the inflation. I daily read this magazine in order to stay informed about everything that is happening in the economy of various countries and the world economy as well. There is a subscription and I guess this money will certainly recoup itself.

“OK content, but NO online subscription cancel option”

I found the content ok... but wanted to pause my subscription. I then discovered NO ONLINE cancel option. I had to discuss it with someone who spent the whole time trying to sell. This wasted considerable time and says a lot about the business. I will never again subscribe.

I find that the print has gotten smaller in the past few years. It is hard for senior citizens to read. This may have something to do with mailing costs, etc. I will not renew my subscription for this reason.

I've been a subscriber for a couple of years now and I must say that their journalism is impeccable. The quality is always great and I appreciate the holistic flair that the weekly issue allows for.

However, I only use their app as their website is very outdated with adds filling up the page and a need to log in every single time you go on their site.

Both Espresso and the official app are great though.

Pay attention CNN, FOX, Infowars, Young Turks, MSBC, MSN, CBS, ABC and any other leaning news outlest. Let me say this in a way you can undertand. This is how you journalism. Good job Economist. Keep the biases checked at the door. Opinions should be left for social media.

The Economist (http://www.economist.com/) is the place to go for in-depth information and news on business, politics and current affairs around the world. The articles are usually thoughtful, well documented and are not afraid of being contentious. If you are serious about news, read the Economist. They also publish a great style guide for writers! Sadly, for full access you now need to subscribe, but the website is still pretty good.
