Hoorah! I love comparing myself to my neighbors! That sounds bad but I think it's friendly competition. Comparing incomes is more constructive than comparing BMWs at least.

It's now sitting in my Roth IRA! Actually, I should say it's growing in my Roth IRA.

Sounds expensive! But really, I've never thought of doing that. Smart.

Digit is my jam.

Seems to be working now.

I've never recommended anyone buy individual stocks. And suggesting someone invest solely in index funds and never spend any money is unreasonable. People have hobbies. So instead of wasting money on hobbies ie: buying a sports car just to drive it around, perhaps you can open up a side business as an auto detailer.

I knew I would go to college so I saved up enough money to pay for it. I did take out student loans though just to get free $$$$ for 4 years. But I paid no interest. All were gov't loans. $16.5k.

Ooooohhhhh this is freaking awesome! Another reason Chrome is the best!

I went to a local financial advisor, bought a mutual fund targeted at young adults (I was 10 at the time) and bought some shares through a custodial account. This was before widespread internet brokerage firms. Had it not been, I'm sure I would have went w/ Vanguard right away route (I'm now w/ VG). Investing is super

Name drop! Who's the insurance company?

I unplug everything as quickly as possible. Partly because of the cost savings and partly because I think anything electronic will catch fire while I sleep and burn my house down. Just kidding. But seriously. :)

I've never had a spending problem. #weirdo

I knew a guy who angrily quit 2 days before being fully vested. He went begging for his job back and was denied. He was 2 days away from getting $11,000.

I came here for the DeLorean… :)

It's kind of like spending a long day at the zoo with your children to keep you from wanting more.

I've had a Klean Kanteen for 3 years. I scrub the outside and inside neck of the bottle but I don't use a brush for deep inside the bottle. I just fill with soap water and shake until my abs hurt. It looks/smells clean. I drink filtered water out of it. Hrrrmmmm. Maybe I'm disgusting.

I'll check it out soon! Thanks for letting me know about it - I'm quite the gearhead.

I find it hilarious when someone keeps the hammer down all the way to a red light. I coast up to it, light turns green, and my rolling starts allows me to pass them again. News flash people: You don't always have to be mashing on a pedal!

Dave, I can't wait until I reach the 7-figure mark. You'll have to let me know how it feels.

Good for you, man. Save 50% and financial independence is yours pretty quickly.
