I’ve Been Living The Life AI Futurists Promise Us, Here’s My Review
accidentalfire.com | 10:00 Uhr
|
I’m kind of obsessed with AI. For about two years now my podcast listening has heavily shifted over to podcasts about AI. I use AI, run local models on my home computer, and think a lot about this technology...

With What Lens Do You View Life?
1500days.com | 00:37 Uhr
|
It showed up last Friday, a 15 ton mountain of dirt in front of my house. I had just purchased it from the local landscaping company. To grasp the magnitude, note the life-sized dinosaurs* and dump truck* on top of the pile: The dirt’s purpose was to fill planter boxes and level out parts of […]

The grass is greenest where you water it
thepowerofthrift.com | 08:00 Uhr
|
So, I’ve been focusing on self-care lately. After every shower, I scrub the dead skin off my heels and apply lotion all over my body. I spray some perfume after putting on a dress. The highlight of my routine is picking out jewelry to wear. And my once dry, white, scratchy, kind of disgusting bottoms… Read More: The grass is greenest where you water it »

The Risk Parity Saga Continues
earlyretirementnow.com | 10:00 Uhr
|
November 10, 2026 – Risk Parity has been one of the most requested topics for years. I always pushed back, finding the approach silly, inefficient, and thus useless for retirement portfolios. But finally, in July of 2026, I published two blog posts: one on the safe withdrawal rate impact of Risk Parity (SWR Part 64) and … Continue reading The Risk Parity Saga Continues

Making money post retirement
thepowerofthrift.com | 08:00 Uhr
|
I wrote in my book that if you’re the type of person who guns for early retirement, you’re probably the type of person who can make money after they retire if they want to. I was wrong. Turns out, making money after retirement is way harder than I thought it would be. So, eleven years… Read More: Making money post retirement »

A while back, I wrote about how—more than four years post-FIREing—I think I’m no longer employable in a full-time-professional-job capacity. Certainly not full-time career field. Put another way, can I do the work? Probly. Will I do the work? Probly not. My interest in, and tolerance for, full-time work is gone. My heart, no longer...

I went to a smaller school in my early education days. It ran from kindergarten through 8th grade and had probably 300-400 students at the most.

August was another fabulous summer month in the UK.
