Hey, Joshua, Why No Financial Content These Past Two Weeks?

You may have noticed there hasn’t been a lot of heavy financial articles on my personal blog for the past two or three weeks.  Some of you have written me asking the reason.  Normally, all of my best content goes to About.com and anything that isn’t suitable for beginners (the more advanced stuff) gets put here as an outlet.  So … what gives?

It’s simple: I’m closing in on 100+ pages in the manuscript on the next book, which is a beginner’s guide to basic finance.  Thus, I’m spending most of my day and night writing about time value of money formulas and solving for intrinsic value.  Since I’m writing about finance almost every waking hour of the day, the last thing I want to do is keep it up here on the blog.

As a result, when I sit down to update everyone, I’m not thinking about discount rates or which dividend stock I bought that morning.  Instead, I want a distraction … the video games, the shopping trips, the dinners, the political news …

We will return to our regularly scheduled programming shortly, but I think you all will be pleased with the finished product so it will be worth the wait. I’m hoping for an October publication date but I won’t release it until I’m completely satisfied.
