The Best Reason for Financial Independence

“For me, the proposition of Financial Independence seemed like a very good deal — I gave up all that extra income, but I actually get to spend time with my family now.”
Life After Six Months of Early Retirement
“The fact is I love the freedom ingrained in controlling what I do with my time. I get up in the morning whenever I damn well please. I blog. I record video. I work on projects that interest me, and I certainly don’t worry about money.”
Luxuries Rarely Increase Our Happiness
via Frugalwoods
“When we sign-up for our culture’s materialistic consumer carousel, we’re signing up for a lifetime of spending money. There is always more to buy, more to crave, and more to convince ourselves we need.”
A Story of a Fu** Off Fund
via Paulette Perhach
“To build this account, you keep living like you lived as a broke student. Drive the decade-old Civic even after the fender falls off. Buy the thrift store clothes. You waitress on Saturdays, even though you work Monday through Friday.”
How Space Influences What We Buy
“Today’s residences are 61% larger than only 40 years ago…Many have grabbed the largest home their pre-approved loan will allow and subsequently filled them to the brim with stuff. As a result, the average household now has 300,000 items.”
My Favorite Podcast
