So for a while now I was thinking about what we could do beyond volunteering our time when we do retire early. Before long my mind turned to this blog. It’s a platform for our thoughts on personal finance and attaining financial independence with the ultimate goal of retiring early. Hopefully it helps, inspires or even just provokes. But could it also be an opportunity to leverage the time of our readers? So an idea was born to donate the profits from the blog when we retire early.

Looking at the sums now, it’s now clear that my wife and I have actually gained a third partner our relationship: our passive income buddy. At the risk of being takers in this relationship, we feel like we’re at a stage where passive income is able to do some of the financial heavy lifting for us. Pay Rise

What's the deal with people being overly enthusiastic at work? I mean, really excited about sometimes really dumb ideas, or jumping up to do extra menial work. It's almost like they're desperate for the money above all else. https://hishermoneyguide.com/fake-workplace-enthusiasm/

Our passive income buddy doesn’t talk to us. Strictly speaking, it doesn’t encourage or comfort us. But like a much-loved pet, our passive income buddy is always there for us. Like a life-long friend or family member, we know we can count on our passive income buddy to lend a hand. It’s slowly dawned on me that it’s like we have a valued co-worker with us, helping us reach our goals. Investment Portfolio

Two years before early retirement. Remember that awesome final week before school holidays started? You didn’t care anymore. Heck, the teachers didn’t care anymore. It wasn’t holidays, but it was pretty damn close. Sadly, this isn’t that. Now I hope that joyful care-free time will hopefully come when we take a 6-month sabbatical off work in our final year. Instead this time feels like the time spent cramming ahead of the subsequent exams that came beforehand.

I thought being two years out from early retirement would start to feel really, really close. And after announcing last week that we’re taking another year off our time until retirement, that’s where we are now. But in some ways it doesn’t feel close at all. Work Motivation

By taking off an extra year, here’s a little tidbit I’m pretty chuffed about. This means we have two years to go until we retire early. If we retire before 2025, I’ll actually scrap in to retire as a 39-year-old. I’ll be rather happy with myself to be able to say “I retired in my 30s.” So everything is going according to plan. In fact, it’s going ahead of plan. And guess what? It feels great! Tired Of Work

After a very crappy 2022, I come bearing a late Christmas present to ourselves. Something to lift our spirits for 2023 and get it started on the right note: we’re cutting another year from our time until early retirement! With two years to go, we now can’t see ourselves pushing things any quicker. As things are, it’ll be a pretty tight dash to complete the objectives we’ve set ourselves. Let’s take a look at what made this possible, and some various implications.

I’ve recently had some family members reach what could be seen as a mid-life crisis. From what we’ve been told they want to do more with their life. But they want more money at the same time. They said they want to spend more time with their young kids, but also feel like they’re missing out on their career. The advice they received from a family elder was – I thought – pretty obvious and logical. “Family time or money.” “Successful career or spare time.” “You can’t have it all,” they said.

The moment you understand that you can make your money work for you – instead of working forever to make money – is an incredible realisation. But remember Newton’s third law: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Money doesn’t come out of nowhere. You need to earn it. Only then can you decide what to do with it. And investing is what makes money work for you. It’s actually pretty simple: Turn your money around, make it work for you instead of being a slave to it. How To Start A Blog

So often people are told to just invest in the index. And I’m not going to disagree with index investing being a solid, reliable investment approach … well, not disagree entirely. The fact is, it’s just not as simple as that, because which index is best? You need to think for yourself and look beyond the glossy marketing, or oversimplified reviews because an index or ETF product is not all that it seems. Investing Money

If you gave the average person $1, and said you would take it away from them but give them $0.05 in return each year for life, most would laugh at you straight to your face. “Are you kidding me? You can’t even buy a chocolate drop for 5 cents anymore! What the hell could I do with 5 frigging cents?” But a miserly $1 really isn’t the point. The thing is that most people spend and squander those single dollars by the truckload. It quickly adds up. Saving Money

So often people are told to just invest in the index. Actively managed funds regularly underperform the passive approach. An index is diverse, with exposure to dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of companies, rather than one company that could just underperform or completely collapse.
