Do You Have The Guts to Become a Professional Blogger?

Do you have the guts to quit your day job and pursue your dream as a professional blogger? Get Rich Slowly writes a nice article which breaks down the process of doing just that…

Quitting the day job scares me. My web income can support my lifestyle, especially if I’m frugal. But I had developed grand plans of accelerated savings, of paying off my mortgage in just a few years, of traveling around the world. When I quit the day job, I’ll be sacrificing:

* The second income.
* An additional retirement plan (about $5,000/year).
* Daily contact with co-workers and colleagues.

I’ll be trading these sure things for an uncertain future. What guarantee do I have that Get Rich Slowly can continue to produce enough income to support me? What guarantee do I have that I’ll still want to do this three years from now? There are no guarantees.

Then comes the plan….

And so I am making a leap of faith. Or, more precisely, several “hops of faith”. In order to provide myself and the business a smooth transition, I’m going to reduce my hours gradually over the coming year.

* Beginning 01 January 2008, my Tuesdays will be spent working on Get Rich Slowly.
* Beginning April 1st, I’ll drop Thursdays at the box factory.
* On July 1st, Mondays will be spent writing.
* Next October, I’ll be down to only Wednesdays at the day job.
* Finally, on 01 January 2009, I will be an official real-life full-time blogger.

I’ve always wanted to be a professional writer. I just thought I’d write science fiction novels. Or the sorts of short stories you find in Harper’s and The New Yorker. I never imagined I would one day make my living by writing about personal finance.

Skinny Moose Round Up

L.L. Bean
L.L. Bean recently celebrated the grand opening of their new hunting and fishing store in Freeport, Maine. The new expansion appears to contrast overall changes in the company’s goals over the years, and I think it may very well be a response to the company losing its grip on the hunting and fishing industry as retailers like Cabela’s and Gander Mountain continue to expand.

Myth Buster
There’s a long-running myth that hogs have really bad eyesight. I fell into it for a long while myself. But the truth is, they can see fairly well. Now I don’t put their eyesight on par with the vision of elk or deer, but hogs are NOT blind. Read More >>

How Do You Define Hunting?
As I sit here this evening I often wonder how others out there define or explain hunting to other people. We all know there are others out there that knock us for our passion. They have absolutely NO understanding of what it is that makes us complete as a person. Read More >>

Hunting Jacket
I missed two deer today. It. Was not because of my jacket, but because of ‘few’ other factors that the guys have been quick to mention around the camp dinner table.

Buck Fever aside, I got thinking on my last watch of the day about my 5yr old hunting jacket. Read More >>
