LIGHT A FIRE UNDER YOUR RETIREMENT! 
From the YouTube Channel, Next Level Life … The shockingly simple truth behind early retirement lies in our savings rate. Savings rate is easily one of the most powerful financial concepts that I have ever come across, because it applies to all of us regardless of how much money we make, whether or not we […]
From The FIoneers … In our pursuit of financial independence, we have started engaging with others from the FI community. One thing that I have come to learn is that the FI community is a group of diverse individuals with an even broader set of beliefs. While I appreciate that diversity, there are some who […]
From The Luxe Strategist… “If you catch yourself feeling like saving is impossible, there is only one thing to do: Ask yourself, what would Luxe’s mom say? Do you think my mom would get bent out of shape and just give up on saving because she doesn’t have an NFL salary? No, she would say, […]
From The Luxe Strategist … When I was in my early 20s, I thought I was invincible. At the time, my main interests were shopping at the mall and going to parties. All my needs were being met, so I spent all my money on forgettable wants. Result: six years of work and nothing to […]

But I soon discovered Get Rich Slowly, The Simple Dollar, Free Money Finance, and, eventually, Mr. Money Mustache (and other personal finance blogs). That sealed the deal. I was SOLD on the concept of FI. It was THE ANSWER. It would allow us […]
I’ve been with my current financial advisor, James, for close to 15 years. In a recent conversation, he shared his first impression of me, which, surprisingly, wasn’t complimentary at all. He said that after I entered his office to discuss retirement, he thought he’d never see me again. What James didn’t know about me when […]
