That is THE BIG AWARD at the Plutus Awards, the equivalent of winning Best Picture at the Oscars, and I’m so incredibly honored to win it, particularly given how many wonderful and dedicated bloggers were also finalists. I’ll save the bigger rundown for the e-newsletter.Īnd then there was the part where this happened. It’s especially incredible to see the community diversifying and welcoming in people who don’t all look like white tech bros.
The personal finance blogging and podcasting community is so inspiring, and I loved every second of chatting with people I’ve known for a while as well as people I met for the first time.

I’m not doing a full FinCon recap post this year, but I’m just back from Orlando where I had my favorite FinCon yet. Recording The Fairer Cents with Felicity from Fetching Financial Freedom, Bethany from HisAndHerFI, Jamila Souffrant from Journey to Launch and Julien and Kiersten from Rich and Regular We’ll talk all about that and more today, but first… And a huge part of planning for and living a happy early retirement is knowing yourself - not just what your leanings are, but what that means for how you need to plan and structure your life in advance of pulling the ripcord. Some of us have way too many things we want to do, some of us are completely consumed by one all-encompassing passion, some of us struggle to fill the time and I imagine there are some folks out there with varied interests who find exactly the right number of interests (but I have yet to hear from such a rare and special unicorn – please chime in if that’s you!). (But I will add other things to the list which will be just as wonderful or even more so, so this is not bummer news. And in many ways my biggest lesson in the first year of early retirement has been that, even with all this newfound time, I’m still never going to check everything off my list. My problem isn’t finding ways to fill my time, it’s narrowing things down. One of the most common questions I get that I struggle to answer is, How do I find my purpose and discover things I enjoy doing if I’m already in early retirement? I struggle because I’ve always had the opposite problem: I enjoy doing way too many things, I’m always adding to that list and I see a million ways I’d like to make an impact in the world. Last week we talked about the most important indicator of whether you’re ready for early retirement – go read that first if you haven’t already – and today we’re talking about what you can do to prevent that boredom in the first place.
