Mr. Money Mustache on Simplifying Your Finances (Live CampFI) | MHFI 229 | Mile High FI Podcast

Doug & Carl answer audience questions at CampFI Rocky Mountain with help from Mark Trautman (Mark’s Money Mind), Pete Adeney (Mr. Money Mustache), Travis Hughes (Downshift Financial), & Mindy Jensen (BiggerPockets Money/Mindy on Money). How happy were you to see asparagus served at CampFI? Most embarrassing moment on the way to FI? For Pete:  How do you navigate a complex case study - how do you look at it & simplify? It might be better to change the world while we're still alive - why do we wait until we’re dead? How do you feel about asparagus? Can you talk about your interest in coaching & why you enjoy it? What has surprised you about post-FI life? What is still on your bucket list? How do I introduce more spontaneity into my life? What is your 2nd favorite vegetable? For Travis: Is a Roth conversion considered earned income?  Can it be deducted for HSA, rental loss, other business loss, capital gain loss? What is a weird bathroom habit that you don’t want anyone to know? What % of assets should be in bonds vs stocks & when should you rebalance? Why is Emma so awesome? For Mindy: What is your favorite part of CampFI? Compare & contrast index funds vs real estate Any interest in a new FI movement - Sasquatch FI (achieving FI, then traveling the world in search of Bigfoot)? FI has changed from the early blogging days - how do you see it shifting with “Die With Zero”? David Lee Roth or Sammy Hagar?
