After midnight and I'm still awake. Hoping to crash soon.
While I was at work Thursday, working with people about to do REALLY stupid things with their life savings, I stared thinking about my financial diatribes over the years. The ones on here, emails to friends, daily conversations with people at work, etc. I realized that if I sat down and put all of it together, I could actually write a book that would be pretty useful. It would be in plain English; no heavy use of jargon without thorough explanation. Realistically targeting 20-30 year old individuals who are either digging themselves out of huge holes, or have a bit of money and are figuring out what the hell to do with it. I hated reading books that were written for my parent's generation trying to frantically save for retirement.
Just aggregating what I have, no organizing, has me at 15 pages. That doesn't include any kind of clear thought process or thorough explanations, like I want to add. I figure this will be around 75-100 pages, so not overwhelming either. My basic outline should place me comfortably at that range too.
I'm not sure if there is a market for that, but I'm going to write it anyways.
