I still think this "grow rich through passive blogging income" craze bears a suspicious resemblance to work. Even the "Smart Passive Income" blogger admits that content triumphs SEO. I'll enjoy figuring out how to do it, but I'm not sure I'm in it for the long haul of maintaining & tweaking.
I can see doing a second edition of "The Military Guide" (with chapters on SBP and other insurance) but I guess for the next six months or so I need to keep making sure the first edition is selling.
Spouse and I have been kicking around some book ideas, but I'm not convinced that they'd be worth more than the fun of writing. The lead candidate is "Why We Raised You The Way We Did", which would have an audience of one or possibly two readers.
Navy.TogetherWeServed.com has an interesting series of questions called "Reflections" intended to get you to write your service memoir. But again a lot of mine is classified, and the unclassified parts are of interest only to fellow recovering nukes.
Scott Berkun on WordPress' PostADay2011 has an interesting idea: Topic #238: "For each year you have been alive, write a single sentence about the most important thing that happened to you that year. If you don't want to get too personal, write a sentence about the most important historic event, or event most interesting to you, that happened in the world that year."

I think he'll make the transition on his terms, and it sounds like he'll do just fine.
"Europe travel blogger"?
