When I started this blog, it was to help me get my mind around my money. We didn't have much, and I had to work hard to make the numbers work, and I had so much to learn.
Then at some point, I didn't have so much to learn anymore, and so I got bored. I felt like I was repeating myself, like it had all been said, like anything I wrote on here was just so obvious.
But now I'm realizing it's only obvious to me.
In the past few days I've had a few really dear friends tell me that some money advice I gave them - which after all these years seems intuitive to me - was life changing. And I can't think of anything more gratifying. So I would like to start writing here again, and to use this blog as a vehicle for sharing what I've learned and what I know, for helping other people to get their money under control. And to be perfectly honest, I could use it too, to get my fired up again and make some real progress on our money goals.
But I need your help. Because I don't know what to write. So here's what I need from you:
- Questions - what do you need to know about money? We can have an "Ask story's money" feature, or a longer series on specific issue.
- Challenge ideas - want to do a challenge with me? Like a grocery challenge, or an extra income challenge, or a savings challenge?
- Guest posts - Got a financial success, or even a problem, you want to write about? Send it over.
- Any other ideas for what to write about?
Let's get some pep back in this blog and talk about our money.
