I just found a new blog that I have added to my reader. I read a few posts from Early Retirement Extreme and knew that I had to subscribe to this feed.
It is a personal blog about the life and finances of someone who, although having attained a PhD and good paying job, has decided to live like a poor college student still.
He rides his bike or walks to work, keeps his thermostat around 60 (way too cold for me!!!) and eats lentil soup quite frequently.
Now this may not be the lifestyle for most of us but it worked for him for a while. I think this blog is quite interesting and I am reading my way from start to finish while keeping up with the new stuff that I just subscribed to.
Hey, thanks for the highlight 🙂 The thermostat actually runs on 55F now but lentil soup is a rare occurrence (most frequently eaten meal is probably vegetarian tortillas). I wouldn’t say that my job pays well. Good long haul truckers make more than me.
