I also find it more fun and interesting to find ways to increase income rather than, as you said, “slash expenses to the bone.”
]]>Great points, Cubert. I agree with both!
]]>No problem, Dave! And great point – there are tons of ways to earn income without being tech savvy.
]]>Agreed – the trick is not just to earn a high income, but to earn a high income while simultaneously keeping expenses fairly low.
]]>Haha love that line – “you can get out with a spoon, but it will likely take longer.”
]]>Great points, Kit. For some people, side hustles make sense and they can make a big difference financially. For other people in high-paying professions like your wife, it actually makes more sense to focus all of your energy on advancing through the ranks as a professional.
]]>Yes, exactly! Income matters.
]]>Agreed – plenty of people achieve F.I. through extreme frugality and minimalism, but no matter how low your spending is, it always helps to simply increase your income.
]]>Exactly – there is unlimited upside on your income-earning ability.
]]>I’ve always found it more fun to find ways to earn more money than slash expenses to the bone.
