It’s been a long time since I pimped my fitness blog, Get Fit Slowly. To be honest, I haven’t been writing there very much. I’ve been busy with this site. But I’m sort of proud and amused by the righteous indignation I mustered in my latest post: “Walk off 15 lbs by July 4!”. It’s [...]

I’ve written before that I’m not a natural handyman. I’m thinking that maybe it’s time to develop those skills. We’ve been working with contractors all spring to do repairs around the house, and the constant drain on the pocketbook is beginning to hurt. I’d rather do some of this work myself. (Of course the reason [...]

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been making changes to Get Rich Slowly to make it more accessible to you, the reader. Now it’s time to take a look at the content side of things. If you have a spare moment, I’d appreciate it if you could complete this survey.
The survey is a few pages [...]

For years, I’ve said that Get Rich Slowly has the best readers and commenters on the web. I often think that I get more from your contributions than you get from mine. I’m not the only one who has noticed this. I was just speaking with long-time reader Dylan today, and he told me why [...]

My April was manic. I was very busy, both with the blog and in Real Life. I swore to improve things in May, but it never happened. But this time I mean it! I’m going to do less in June. I want to focus on three things: yardwork around the house, marathon training, and writing [...]

I had a colonoscopy today. Though 40 is young to elect to have this procedure, my family has a history of cancer (including some colon cancer). The older I get, the more I come to understand how important my health is. I used to say that your career is your most important asset. It’s not. [...]

I’ll be making a quick trip to Orlando, Florida this week. T. Rowe Price and Disney are unveiling a financial literacy project, The Great Piggy Bank Adventure, and I’ve been invited to take a first-hand look. I’ve been assured that I’m under no obligation to write about it. But if it’s something that I think [...]

A quick word of warning: Get Rich Slowly will be undergoing site maintenance on Friday Monday, and may be sporadically unavailable. Please be patient. We’ll try to have everything back to normal as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, here are some other sites around the web that you might want to explore:
First up, Adam at Man [...]

It’s that time of year: Kris and I spent most of the weekend working in the yard. We planted out the vegetable garden, but most of our time was spent pruning seemingly endless shrubbery. I’m not complaining — the end result is a lovely yard during the summer — but it’s daunting to realize that [...]

Part of the fun of Get Rich Slowly is writing about a variety of topics, basic and advanced. Though I’m an advocate of financial literacy, I’m not certain that I want to devote the entire month of April to it in the future. Instead, I’ll focus on financial literacy week perhaps, as well as sharing [...]
