Hllo sir, your contaent is good , I think you need to do proper SEO for your videos. You have been using eye catchy thumbnail, and you spend a good amount of Doller for video thumbnail, .... but you didn't use any tags, and SEO optimized title and description based on those tags. SEO is very Important to find your video in search bar. I am a professional SEO expert and I know how to grow a RU-vid channel organically. Can I help you?
This is the first video on FIRE that I've seen that is actually research-based. Thank you for this! As an RN who works in higher education, this is crucial. (Contrary to societal belief, higher education does not pay what it should either. It's a passion project to develop the next generation, or no one would choose to stay. :) Agree with your analysis. Well done!
Thanks for sharing, it's nice to see others plans. You have a great mix of income and investments and a great attitude, I hope you continue to grow your channel. 👍🏼🙌🏼👊🏼
Sadly, your story of a hostile work environment isn't the first one I've heard of. I'm so glad that you had a chance to leave that job, having options is always awesome. When you say your money is loaned out to real estate investors does that mean you are a hard money lender or investing in REITs? I don't quite understand but I'm intrigued and want to learn more
OK now your video is visible. That's awful that they reduced your salary like that. HSAs are fabulous! I'm glad you guys have that. Roth conversions are also a great strategy. You should have your wife make an appearance in one of your videos! 😁
She is not into my RU-vid channel. It was enough to get her to record the Intro. She is not into FIRE at all 😁, but she is enjoying the fruits of my labors. I was supposed to have the video up by 3PM but I was puppy babysitting for the first time and that was my priority today. How many videos do you do each week? I do one per week so that it does not become a job. I am really into passive income. Even my teaching at colleges is as passive as possible. I am looking forward to seeing your next video. More River videos please.
I like this book but I felt like it was geared to people with a very high net worth. I'm working on a book with kind of a similar message but aimed at people with a more modest net worth.
I achieved Barista FIRE by accident. I didn’t even know what FIRE was, much less Barista FIRE, but here I am. I can’t wait to put both feet fully into retirement!
Well said, great video my friend. I hope all is well and that you are safe from the recent storms. Welcome to the RV world, we bought a 2011 Born Free 22' a couple of years ago to do that. Funny thing is that I am thinking about getting a van and convert it into a RV to get into other places. I am so happy for you and everything you are doing ... keep up the wonderful things you do
Thank you so much. i am currently working from the RV for 2 weeks as we get settled into the RV Park. So many things to buy and get set up. I never think about those extra costs when I buy something. My only issue is paying rent. I have not paid rent in 30 years, but this place is worth it.
This is a dream that popped up in retirement. It was not planned, but being financially free allows these things to happen. You are so much more stable than me. I am doing this by the seat of my pants. I love your plan and how organized your retirement plan is. I also love that my retirement costs me very little. A fishing pole, bait, and someday a tiny boat (and I am happy).
New subscriber here. Found your channel through the shoutout you received from Happy On Monday's channel (see her September Reitrement Portfolio video). Fabulous story! Very inspirational. Thank you for sharing and congratulations on an incredible journey!
She is adorable. Thats the kind of dog that Ibwould have…IF I WAS going to have one. Isnt thatba Pomiranian ?.. ignore my spelling …. Whats her name???
Thank you for watching my video. We bought this in an RV park at the lake. We did not have to buy the truck to pull it around. While it is in a premium spot at the moment, we are going to move to a less expensive spot (which is still close to the lake) for the long run.
What a remarkable story! You have overcome a ton of adversity and was still able to have a happy ending/ positive outcome. I love hearing stories like this. So glad you joined the RU-vid community
A lot of people have a similar experience regarding the toxic work environment forcing them out. We lost a good one, but I'm glad that you got out while you were still healthy and able to enjoy this next stage in your life
Great video! That lake looks lovely. We are so glad that you've found a great place to maximize your positive life experiences and invest in your experiences 😊🎉
