This past weekend I had the privilege of addressing the very fun crowd of hardcore Mustachians gathered in Gainesville, FL for Camp Mustache SE 2017. (Mustachian = acolyte of the Mr. Money Mustache blog and personal lifestyle and financial philosophy.) I was invited to give a presentation and I chose for my topic, "Why Wait Until You're F.I. to Live Like You're F.I.?" This addresses a theme I often see among the hardcore early retirement crowd. The idea is this: "My life stinks right now but it'll all be great after F.I." But, is that the best way to approach it? Why not recognize that life can be great now and after F.I.? Enjoy!
