Hmm.  He kind of wandered off his point (why are we working), but he did go back to it, sort of. I felt like the whole middle part could have been cut, and the conclusion was way too vague.
I am a former teacher who accumulated a bunch of real estate, retired at 29, spent some time traveling the world full time and am now settled with three kids.
If you want to know more about me, this Business Insider profile tells the story pretty well.
I (rarely) blog at AdventuringAlong.com. Check out the Now page to see what I'm up to currently.
