Writing FFL with a Slightly Different Approach

Writing doesn’t come naturally to me. It’s not something I believe I’m especially good at. It’s not something I find myself naturally compelled to do, either. So why am I writing a personal finance blog, you might ask?

The answers are twofold. I’m writing this blog as a way to help people who make a high income make sense of their personal finances. I’m also writing it specifically to get better at writing.

To date, I have waited to write articles until I felt I had something especially insightful or detailed to share. I came to realize recently, however, that writing a blog this way would fail to reach a large enough audience or gain any real traction for a really long time.

Given both my motivations for writing Financial Freedom Lab, it seems antithetical to only write one article a month. That is why I have decided to write at least 3 articles per week about a personal finance topic. I will continue to write in-depth “lab reports” on specific topics as I have been. In the interim, I will focus on pushing out more content both to keep the blog fresh with new content and to actually practice writing. That’s the point of this, after all.

Whether it’s a short blurb like this one or a podcast recommendation, I hope that my short articles will still provide readers with the valuable content they want and deserve.

Some of the areas I hope to focus on include:

  • What financial freedom means (not just the definition)
  • Specific strategies others are using to achieve it
  • Tips and tricks for getting the best deals shopping online
  • How to maximize your credit card rewards
  • An almost live account of my process buying a business
  • How to evaluate real estate crowdfunding investments
  • Comparison of real estate asset classes
  • Passive income ideas
  • And many more!
