My favourite articles of 2019

I love writing on this blog. If I had all the time and money in the world, I’d create a lot more content. I’d probably become insufferable.

Although I like all of the articles I publish, some have a closer place in my heart than others.

Sometimes it’s because I think an article has an especially important message. Sometimes, it’s because they are the articles I spent the most time writing (and living with). In other cases, it’s because I feel like I’ve managed to articulate something that I hadn’t previously been able to put into words. Sometimes, it’s because I had a lot of fun (eg “Money with Ben”).

For whatever reason, the articles below have a special place in my heart. If you haven’t read them, I encourage you to give them some time.
