Tynan encourages you to create a stable life rather than a stable job

Episode 1754: Create a Stable Life, Not a Stable Job by Tynan on Minimalism & Financially Healthy Living

Tynan was named as one of the top 25 best bloggers in 2013 by Time Magazine. He believes in making deliberate decisions and breaking away from the herd mentality. He likes learning new things, building habits, exposing the world, connecting with awesome people, and creating good work. The New York Times Bestseller “The Game” featured him as one of the main characters, as he was one of the most famous pickup artists in the world. In 2008, he sold everything he owned and went on an extended world trip, becoming a fervent minimalist.

Fun facts: he’s a college dropout, was a professional poker player, Courtney Love was his roommate for 9 months, and he once built a swimming pool in his living room.

The Frugalwoods are ex-urban, rookie homesteaders finding contentment (and a lot of chores) on 66 acres in rural central Vermont along with their two young daughters. They write about a wide range of topics, including their experience as parents, their adventures as novice homesteaders, and the financial decisions that made their life possible.

Their philosophy is that managing your money wisely enables you to pursue unusual aspirations and opens up a world of options for how to live your life.

Through the application of frugality–coupled with good incomes and judicious financial management–they have created a life that they love living every single day. It’s not a life beholden to consumerism or the drive for material perfection or the incessant clarion call for more.

Mr. Money Mustache shares his opinions and strategies for investing short-term cash.

Episode 1750: Where Should I Invest My Short-Term 'Stash by Mr. Money Mustache on Investing in Bonds & Money Market Accounts

Mr. Money Mustache is a thirty-something retiree who now writes about how we can all live a frugal, yet awesome, life of leisure.

He and his wife studied engineering and computer science in Canada, then worked in standard tech-industry cubicle jobs in various locations throughout the late ’90s and early 2000s.

Then they retired from real work way back in 2005 in order to start a family. This was achieved not through luck or amazing skill, but simply by living a lifestyle about 50% less expensive than most of their peers and investing the surplus in very boring conservative Vanguard index funds and a rental house or two.

Steven Keys of Trip of a Lifestyle talks about financially independent thinking

Episode 1749: Everyone Else Could Be Wrong by Steven Keys of Trip Of A Lifestyle on Financially Independent Thinking

Since graduating from college in 2012, Steven has developed a healthy obsession with personal finance. Although he has no formal training in the field, he’s taught himself a lot about saving and investing over the years. In addition to the normal stuff, he’s also come up with quite a few unusual ways to make extra money, from credit card hacking, to buying and selling stuff on eBay, to ridiculous ventures like taking advantage of loopholes at casinos.

After finding satisfaction in helping friends and family prepare for retirement, pay off their student loans, and navigate the confusing world of home buying, Steven wanted to share his thoughts on personal finance more publicly. His main motivation for blogging stems from a desire to help more people become financially free and change their lives for the better.
