I had a blast around here in July, and I’m very proud of the articles I produced.
After several months of writing what I thought you wanted me to write, I loosened up and just wrote about the things that interested me. I felt like I was taking a risk — what if you’re not interested in the same financial stuff I am? — but after having done this for several weeks, I’m glad I did it. We had some great discussions this month at Get Rich Slowly, and we covered some topics that I’d been neglecting.
Here are some of the best posts from July:
- July 1st: Good-bye, Microsoft Money! 16 powerful personal finance programs
- July 3rd: Ask the readers: Save more or see the world?
- July 7th: An introduction to money market accounts
- July 10th: Employee or entrepreneur? The pros and cons of self-employment
- July 17th: How to buy a mattress (a guest post from Justin)
- July 19th: Impulse spending: The present and the past
- July 22nd: Lower your expectations, increase your happiness
- July 27th: How to budget for an irregular income
The blog isn’t the only part of this site. If you have burning questions about personal finance, one of the best places to get answers is the Get Rich Slowly discussion forum.
The forum is a great place to chat with your fellow readers. Have questions about emergency funds? Ask! Want to chat about cheap vacations? This is the place to do it. The forums have 3300 registered users and over 39,000 posts.

I’m glad to see you branching out into other topics. Traditional PF is not my thing so I found myself checking in on your blogonce every couple of weeks. Now I’m at least reading your headlines every day and am dropping more comments into the mix. Keep up the good work and make sure you continue to grow GRS.

Keep writing what interests you, it makes the posts better when you’re really into what you’re writing vs. trying to churn out something you think other people will like.
(It’s what I’m trying hard to do with my blog, doing what I want instead of what I think others want, but mine’s just a baby blog.)
That way, it seems more sincere and injecting a bit of opinion makes it more interesting, too. Keep it up, your writing’s great, JD!
