It’s been a strange October for me. At the first of the month, I began the transition to working full time on my book, Your Money: The Missing Manual. It’s a much different challenge than blogging, and it’s taking all my time. In theory, the book writing will be done in a few months, and then I’ll be able to devote more attention to GRS again! Thank you for your patience while I pursue this life-long goal.
Meanwhile, I was pleased with the stuff I did write here during October, and the contributions from staff writers Adam and April, and from the guest authors. And, of course, I always appreciate your contributions to the discussion.
Here are some of the best Get Rich Slowly articles from the month of October:
- October 1st: Happier
- October 6th: How to stop buying clothes you never wear (by April)
- October 10th: The guilt of wealth
- October 14th: 9 ways to knock the socks off your next landlord (by Baker)
- October 15th: Five steps to six figures in seven years (a guest post from FMF)
- October 17th: What if your high-paying job makes you miserable?
- October 22nd: The paradox of choice and the dangers of perfection

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 over 3500 registered users and over 41,500 posts.

Congrats on all the success. Good luck on your book too. You should have a large audience for it by the time it hits the shelves
Keep up the good work. Also I second the suggestion to check out the forum. It is a great place to get tons of advice for any questions you have.

I think you are doing an excellent job of keeping this blog site fantastic even while writing what I’m sure is a killer book.
I’m registered in the forums and need to make it over there more often. I just published a post on my blog outlining the Dave Ramsey Baby Steps, and I need to think of some high quality topics to piggy-back off of that article and keep on the family/marriages and finance topic for at least a few days. Off to the GRS forums I go!
