Get Rich Slowly is a personal finance blog started in 2005 as a part-time venture, This month, the main writer of the blog, JD, quit his day job and will blog full time. It's not a surprise -- he's been blogging about it for awhile.

After his first week, he mentions the anxieties he's having, such as higher utility bills (It’s fine for us to leave the thermostat set at 54 degrees when nobody’s home, but when I’m trying to write, that’s too cold.), income worries, work schedule and worries over health insurance. Reading his concerns and how he has prepared for them is great advice for anyone considering a free-lance, consutant or similar self-employed job.

I’m excited to be pursuing my dreams, and I’m committed to making Get Rich Slowly a fantastic place to find personal finance information. I just need to make some mental adjustments to my new reality.

Another interesting blog written by a small business person is A Thought Over Coffee, written by a coffee shop/catering entrepreneur.
