I retired when I could draw Social Security, 20 years ago. My retirement would be better if I had known this 60 years ago. YouTube "knows" I like videos like this. Keep helping the ones who need this kind of advice. Definitely an upvote.

Growing up my dad always told me how he was actually broke. Single mom, food stamps, beans every day. And he bought all the cars he could get and that caught up to him. It took me 30 years to rewire my brain and let looking broke be your superpower. Less expectations less pressure from everyone else.

I felt this one. Success is simple you either outwork your excuses or you lose. The Other Side of Order by Steven Humsfeld pushed me to show up even on the days where motivation is zero

Driving a 2012 Civic with duct tape on the mirror hits home. Drove my old beat-up wagon for fifteen years while folks laughed, but sleeping peacefully with zero debt beats an Audi lease any day. Real wisdom here. ❤

This is the way I have been living for the last 6 years... Before that I was homeless and addicted to drugs, so I'm already used to living below my means... And I'm debt-free which is something a lot of 38 year olds can't say...

I once met someone at a gold storage facility in the UK. We talked about privacy, decentralization, and off-grid movement. When I asked what influenced him most, he didn’t say a course or a mentor- just quietly said, “The Other Side of Order by Steven Humsfeld” No context. No explanation. Just a book that opened a door I didn’t know existed.

This is the way. I accidentally wore decent clothes to the gym and hated the attention. The invisible 20+ yo minivan is where it's at.
