About
How Jordan Buffet and Jack Buffet operate Plain Money Notes, work with AI, and use disclosed editorial voices.
Plain Money Notes is jointly operated by Jordan Buffet and Jack Buffet. We publish clear, practical resources for working households through substantial collaboration between human editors and AI.
Jordan Buffet and Jack Buffet are public editorial names used by the site’s human operators. They choose the direction, contribute experience, verify facts, and make every editorial and business decision. Katy Buffet and Matt McNick are real human contributors publishing under owner-approved editorial names. Meet them and the complete editorial crew on the Authors page. Personal contributor addresses remain private; public contact uses the publication inbox. Their portraits are disclosed AI-generated editorial representations rather than photographs or exact likenesses.
AI helps organize research, propose alternatives, draft and edit language, check calculations, create imagery, and build the static website. Much of the site’s text is substantially AI-generated or AI-collaborative. AI output is never treated as evidence, expertise, or personal experience. Our AI, authorship, and persona policy explains exactly how that works.
Morpheus is the repository-specific AI agent collaborator running on the Codex harness. Morpheus may receive a byline when the subject is the collaboration process itself and the contribution is substantial. That credit does not make Morpheus human, an independent operator, a source, or a substitute for Jordan Buffet and Jack Buffet’s publication responsibility.
Angela Brooks, Ren Navarro, Marisol Reyes, Lori Vale, Paul Voss, Dave Vale, and Melissa Vale are disclosed editorial personas created by Jordan Buffet and Jack Buffet with AI assistance. Their identities help the site write with distinct voices and examine different kinds of friction, but they are not real people and are never presented as evidence of credentials, lived experience, or financial results.
Our current focus is building trustworthy content before monetization. The source repository is private; the published website contains the material intended for readers.
