Quorten Blog 1

First blog for all Quorten's blog-like writings

So, I decided to revisit the Mr. Money Mustache blog and look for anything interesting, and this is what I found. Wow, quite interesting the premises of this article. First, an attorney writing wanting to retire but feeling unconfident about doing so. Then, a story about a good friend named Luc. Luc was someone who was arguably less fortunate than either Mr. Money Mustache or the attorney writing in. Luc never had a really well paying job, instead working blue-collar jobs to make his earnings. But, nevertheless, through some good decision making, he was able to reach an early retirement and soar… with tons of projects going on all the time. So, the final advice given was to just try and see what you discover. You might be surprised.

Wow, this is interesting. You can build a tiny house for only $3500? Yeah, but there are many caveats in this build, like not using a concrete floor, and not giving a completely finished hardwood floor.

Now, these last two are really interesting. A problem with a lot of Americans is that they spend a lot of money on entertainment, yet this is completely unnecessary, not to mention not as satisfying as some of the alternatives. Additionally, the promotional effort that goes into pushing such entertainment offerings, i.e. first month free, is indicative that such is not an endemically useful endeavor. Towns that are overrun by commercial tourism can actaully be unattractive for touring if you like meeting the local people and learning about culture.
