Do you listen to Bob Brinker?
« on: October 05, 2014, 07:38:44 PM »
What do you think of his show?

Do you get his podcast?  If so, how do you download it?

Never heard of him.  After some googling, not super impressed.

You can pay to access his archived material (such as his radio show, and use it like a podcast) here: http://www.bobbrinker.com/MOD.asp
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.

Is Brinker still on radio? I used to listen to him 20+ years ago.

He talked about achieving "critical mass" which is another way of saying FIRE. Thanks for bringing him up, it's been years since I've heard him. I think he's a index investor guy, but can't remember for sure.

In the end, I definitely remember that he understand and is on board with retiring as soon as you get a steady stream of income to support your lifestyle.

His market timing newsletter.  Doesn't jive with my personal investment philosophy. If it's your cup of tea, that's cool, but listening to pundits' predictions of the market isn't my idea of a good time. :)
