Not sure if to laugh. He is saying that early retirement requires a side job but then says that he values his time and thus not doing much. Does anyone get a different read on this video?

I gave the video a thumbs down. I couldn't understand what the hell he was rambling about. He should do us all a favour and turn a 10 minute ramble into a short, terse essay.

TechLead is not intending to be taken seriously.

I didn't finish it. From his earlier videos, he really doesn't get ER. Or FI.

Isn't Techlead the dude who lost his high-paying job with Facebook due to a misogynistic rant on YouTube about his wife who left him and fled the country? Why are you wasting electrons on this guy? He's a Snooki-level idiot.

Again, looks like he managed to troll you too.

(Just watch his what software engineers do video, after that you'll begin to understand that he's just trolling.)
