Your idea is outstanding; the issue is something that not enough people are speaking intelligently about. I am very happy that I stumbled across this in my search for something relating to this. <a href="http://journalqer.com/" rel="nofollow">Journalqer.com</a> <a href="http://keira-k.net/" rel="nofollow">Keira-k.net</a> <a href="http://notjustboxes.com/" rel="nofollow">Notjustboxes.com</a>Lacy Wesleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09715779563663452586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-19554962895028716992016-02-29T07:55:55.958-05:002016-02-29T07:55:55.958-05:00Hi,

If you add-up the time in university, his very short working career, and the quick step to lifelong financial freedom and a paid-off house, the numbers don't add-up at all. There was clearly an inheritance or other windfall that he neglects to mention.<br /><br />He is a great advocate of using a bike for transportation and errands though, and one of the few personal finance writers to do so. I commend him for that. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-26072955096489748812016-02-24T11:29:30.857-05:002016-02-24T11:29:30.857-05:00That minivan has obviously not seen any kid action...That minivan has obviously not seen any kid action.

Hell, I’m doing it right now, with my fingers tapping comfortably on a brushed aluminum keyboard while the letters instantly pop up on the 1920×1080 pixel screen of this feathery “ultrabook” laptop."<br /><br />"I’m on the front porch of my luxury house,"<br /><br />"When you really look at this fancy picture, I’m sitting around on my ass, consuming stuff." <br /><br />"the luxury home is tying up close to half a million dollars of precious capital."<br /><br />"In fact, the relatively material-rich lifestyle of the MMM family is one of the primary reasons this blog doesn’t scare everyone off. People say, “Oh yeah, they have a kid, cars, and a nice house – seems like a reasonable lifestyle, I guess we can dip our toes in as well.” For a blog that preaches living a larger life with a smaller footprint, the contradictions are rife."<br /><br />"Fortunately, there is a way to reconcile the ideal and the reality. You can dabble in luxury, without becoming a whining slave to it, just by understanding the concept that luxury is a drug."<br /><br />"Most of us have tried drugs in one form or another, right? Coffee gives you a little boost. Alcohol makes you a bit more silly and friendly. Ibuprofen lowers your swelling and fever and can really cut down the misery of a cold or flu. Marijuana is amazing for bringing out creative ideas and highlighting the texture and humor in life, and the list goes on. But the key to all drugs is that they come with a balance of positive and negative effects. So only a fool would overdose on any of them in a breathless pursuit of their positives, while ignoring the well-documented negatives.<br /><br />"Luxury behaves in exactly the same way. I remember taking a big hit of it on a business trip a while back. I stepped off the plane in an exotic destination and smelled the warm air off the sea as I watched the palm trees and flowers blowing in the wind. A black Lincoln was waiting right at the curb to pick me up. I threw my backpack into the back seat and climbed in, noting the contrast between my sandals and shorts and the black leather seats of this business-oriented car. The driver zoomed me through the city to the luxury hotel while I casually flicked through emails on my phone and watched the skyscrapers roll past."<br /><br />“I am Mr. Bigshot”, I thought to myself. “I sit in bigass cars, with muscular V-8 engines which waste huge amounts of gas while people drive me around. THIS is the treatment I deserve! Why have I been taking the bus and riding my bike and setting up tents all these years?”More like "rife with pretentiousness"noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-49610919324294680462016-02-24T00:16:27.385-05:002016-02-24T00:16:27.385-05:00Palladin.

Everyone was perfectly nice, but I never got used to it. One evening, I tossed and turned so much in a bed so big that when I woke up, I was stuck under the covers sideways, parallel to the headboard, with no idea where I was or how to get out. (My dog claims I could have been famous for not breaking out of the Watergate.)<br /><br />There was a tiny health club in the basement whose most prominent piece of equipment was a tanning booth with little white plastic goggles for the eyes. In the basement, there was also a tiny restaurant, Jean-Louis, run by chef Jean-Louis Palladino, that was amazing.<br /><br />I don't miss any of it, but it would be nice if Jean-Louis were still around.leroyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03489096287266831412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-51871465832430820902016-02-23T21:33:09.518-05:002016-02-23T21:33:09.518-05:00Mr. Money Mustache is the Bike Snob of personal fi...Mr. Money Mustache is the Bike Snob of personal finance, there's no getting around it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-75797467530910139502016-02-23T21:10:20.361-05:002016-02-23T21:10:20.361-05:00All the corvair needed was a suspension upgrade.All the corvair needed was a <a href="https://www.corvaircorsa.com/tech/earlyaxle.jpg" rel="nofollow"> suspension upgrade. </a>dancesonpedalshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00164303442656489828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-45433627172748949932016-02-23T20:54:02.311-05:002016-02-23T20:54:02.311-05:00your mom.your mom.bad boy of the northnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-41132816383026281652016-02-23T20:52:55.627-05:002016-02-23T20:52:55.627-05:00I hope she's okay.I hope she's okay.bad boy of the northnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-52490002578723348082016-02-23T20:36:35.723-05:002016-02-23T20:36:35.723-05:00wow,ms.babble!right on top.....congrats.salt water...wow,ms.babble!right on top.....congrats.salt water taffy,crosspalms?i thought that was reserved for atlantic city.bad boy of the northnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-43907537601932500132016-02-23T19:34:43.986-05:002016-02-23T19:34:43.986-05:00"mounted on her steed of steel."
