November 18, 2022Mailbag! | MHFI 129
It's a mailbag episode! We check in with what's been going on with both of us, and then field questions:
Would FIRE be impossible if most people weren't working and consuming at a high level?

Should I give up a low-paying job I love to go for a higher-paying job and chase FIRE more quickly?

What job would we take if we had to work again?

What non-financial advice would you give to your younger self?

Do we think hobbies like learning an instrument or a language are "non productive"?

Is it difficult to make friends post-retirement?

November 16, 2022 Support the Mile High FI Podcast [bonus] Keep MHFI AD-FREE!
If you like the show, you can help support us.
It costs money each month to produce the show. MHFI will always be out there for free, but if you can spare a few bucks a month, we can avoid ads altogether.
We want to try a donation model before ads. We prefer to stay AD-FREE!! So even if we earn less money with donations, that's okay.
We'd love to have monthly supporters, but there is an option for one-time donations. If you support monthly, you'll get access to bonus content, merch, hang out with Carl and Doug, and our undying appreciation.
Thanks for the support!

October 28, 2022Real Life Indiana Jones - Chris from Life Outside the Maze | MHFI 123 (Rebroadcast)
Doug and Carl interview Chris, the “Indiana Jones” of the FI community. The Financial Independence community has been sorely lacking in treasure hunters and archeologists … until now! Chris, who blogs over at lifeoutsidethemaze.com is someone who gives careful thought to what he wants out of life. After working in the start-up world for most of his career, he and his wife had saved up enough to feel comfortable working for happiness instead of financial gain. Chris worked in the startup world before leaving to pursue a series of bucket-list adventures including:
An archeological dig for a dinosaur

Diving for treasure in the Florida keys

Learning Muay Thai kickboxing

Writing a screenplay

Recording an album
Check out some of Chris's most recent blog posts about his battle with cancer here:
