One Need to Rule Them All

2018-04-20 by Apathy Ends 4 Comments

One Need to Rule Them All

I have been thinking about the ever-blurring line between Needs and Wants and how that plays into Financial Independence. What wants should we sacrifice, which ones are non-negotiable, can we afford to mix in a little luxury, why do we own 4 car seats for 1 child For a long time, I felt we had struck […]

Your Employer Carries the Bigger Stick

Your Employer Carries the Bigger Stick

I have written about my disdain for the power/control dynamic between employer and employee before but I was recently reminded (Twice, unfortunately) just how jacked up this relationship can be. Employers speak softly until the bottom line is threatened, then it’s time for the bigger stick.  It doesn’t seem to matter if… You are a […]

3,000 Bus Rides

A common question that kept coming up at FinCon is “Why am I pursuing the FIRE lifestyle.” Great question, tough answer.

FIRE Meets Water: Sharing our Early Retirement Plans

I have been known to drop the line “We aren’t going to work forever” around my family and friends, but they definitely don’t take that as we are going to exit full-time work in the next 25 years. They think we are on a pretty typical path right now – the infamous Earn More to […]

Remember this when the inevitable happens

Remember this when the inevitable happens

3 times in the last few weeks I felt like a podcast was speaking directly to me. I don’t remember the quotes exactly, but it was along the lines of “A lot of these Millennials preaching index fund investing and “long-term” investing have only invested in a bull market, we will see what they are […]
