Today I'm chatting to one of my all-time favourite authors and an idol in the FIRE community - JL Collins. JL is the author of the bestselling personal finance book, 'The Simple Path to Wealth' and his online blog - jlcollinsnh.com features his stock series. JL has been investing for nearly 50 years, has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to investing and money, he has had diverse career roles, and travelled the world extensively. He is a loving husband and father and his blog posts actually started off as letters to his daughter, with lessons on how to achieve the simple path to wealth. I love to think of JL Collins as the godfather figure of personal finance and I'm very excited to share my interview with him on the podcast today!
