The portal company has made another addition to its content offerings, by adding several financial columnists to Yahoo Finance.

Yahoo announced today it would dramatically increase the number of financial columnists offering insight on its page. Suze Orman's "Money Matters" column has been a feature for over a year and a half; now she will have to share eyeballs with eight new columnists.

Among the new financial writers will be Ben Stein, known not only for his financial writing and economics background, but for numerous movie and television appearances as well ("Win Ben Stein's Money!").

Yahoo notes in its statement that its new columnists "will cover a range of personal finance topics, offer investment insights, and cover the most important economic trends and issues." Here's a list of the new personalities and their forthcoming work:

•  David Bach, best-selling author, will provide a no-discipline, no-nonsense system to help people achieve their financial goals as part of "The Automatic Millionaire" column, which will appear every other Tuesday.

•  Stephen Covey, international best-selling author, will pen the biweekly column "From Effectiveness to Greatness" providing advice on how to thrive, innovate, excel, and lead. His column will run every other Thursday.

•  Robert Kiyosaki is a best-selling author, investor, entrepreneur, and educator. In his column, "Why the Rich Get Richer," he will discuss why many commonly held truths about managing money are obsolete. His column will run every other Tuesday.
