Check out my guest post When Good People Give Bad Financial Advice on Early Retirement Extreme. It’s about a situation where I received advice from someone who meant well but didn’t know what they were talking about. While written specifically about finance, it could just as easily be applied to any other type of advice.
Early Retirement Extreme is a very interesting personal finance blog where Jacob shares his story of achieving financial independence in five years. He did this not by making tons of money, but by focusing on values and efficiency. While many of his tips are too extreme for me (and believe me, they’re extreme), I’ve benefited from observing Jacob’s unique perspective on wants and needs, and seeing what’s possible for someone who is truly committed.
Early Retirement Extreme placed 7th on my list of The 10 Most Readable Blogs (That I Like).
