Nice piece on Forbes
«

Laura Shin, writer at Forbes, wrote a piece on MMM a while back that brought me into the fold. Unlike many mainstream finance/money writers, she really seems to GET it, no "retirement"* nonsense, and no dismissive or incredulous tone that I can detect. Here's one from today about a pretty Mustachian couple that likes to travel:

This may be old news to some around here, but I hadn't seen it before so I thought I'd share.
Cheers!

Thanks for sharing - I really like the gocurrycracker website. It used to be more travel focused but lately he's really cranked up the FIRE posts. There's a lot of good investment and tax advice coming out of his website.

Thanks for sharing this - I enjoy their blog, and you're right, the author does seem to "get it".
