We’re really happy with how the segment featuring @mrmoneymustache and our family turned out. The @PBS @NewsHour team a great job of introducing the #EarlyRetirement concept and addressing some common questions. But in any 9:28 story, so much goes unsaid.

@mrmoneymustache @FieryMillennial @FrugalPharm Twitter keeps suggesting I follow that fake account I reported. 😂

[Uncommon Dream @uncommondream]

@mrmoneymustache @FieryMillennial @FrugalPharm I’ve reported your fake account ending in 0 twice and it seems to just stick around here forever regardless like you said.

@dollarrev @richandregular @KevOnStage “That mf”
Magnificent female? 😊

Also, I thought I’d quickly settle this by sharing THE answer:
1. Gently squeeze air out of the bag.
2. Roll the top of the bag.
3. Clip the roll in the center.

@SteveOnSpeed There’s no pressure besides brilliance let’s say by day 9.

@Mrs1500 @Mrmoneymustach0 Done!

@retirein1500 @mrmoneymustache Finally!

@DebtFreeGuys That works great too of course. I was riffing on the number of people who “did” things — say college sports for example — but then don’t quite achieve the “I am an athlete” identity afterwards. Just a whole lot of “I did” and “I was”.

@mrmoneymustache @EconoMeCon Thanks for the kind words, Pete!

@EconoMeCon Thanks for sharing that, Diania! Your conferences have always been such a blast. I’m honored I got to contribute to the first one.

@madfientist @Brainiac_Music Life here is good! We’re wrapping up a year-long house remodel and properly learning the piano is going great too. I hope parenting life is treating you both well and look forward to hearing whatever music you conjure up next.

@PhysicianOnFIRE @Mrs1500 Oh boy. Brace yourself everybody. 😊

@mpls_ip @mrmoneymustache It was an unbelievably trouble-free car for us from 2014 until the moment it failed. It happens.

I had just changed the oil before my kids and I took a road trip to TX. On our way back to Colorado, it just decelerated on I-70 in Kansas a dozen miles from the Colorado border.

@mrmoneymustache I was tempted to buy a junker for a couple thousand, but not regressing on fuel economy is a value of ours and I couldn’t find any electric vehicles — the new/used inventory was pretty barren at that time.

@mrmoneymustache Our 2007 Toyota Prius finally failed (hole in engine block) after 250,000 miles; we sold it for $1,700.

We bought a 2010 Prius with 32,000 miles for $17,000 at the start of July (poor market timing on my part to become a zero car family).

We found it at a Toyota dealership.

@mrmoneymustache @hubermanlab I’ve been on a similar self-improvement content binge since February crushing my way through Brian Johnson’s fantastic 300-day Heroic Coach program. I’ll definitely check out the @hubermanlab podcast now and would love to compare notes sometime.
